    @Tony
    Found something new. In a table that's been centered, it doesn't appear that you are able to center text within the cells.
    Also, not so much a bug but something I want to note, when copy-pasting stuff (from within the scribble hub chap editor to the same place, had to reload the page and stuff doesn't save so copy pasted the whole text back in) I noticed that a few things aren't copied correctly when copy pasting - namely alignments and advanced table properties.

    ...Alright, something weird is happening on scribblehub. I was randomly logged out, I can't log back in (says my username doesn't exist), and my novel has seemingly disappeared from the site. I also can't find my username with the user search function. What's happening...

    Scratch that last. I somehow got redirected to a site that appears to a prototype version of scribblehub. Same appearance but the address is [removed] instead of scribblehub. No clue what I clicked to get there.
    Edit: found the link. It was the 'add chapter' link on my novel's dashboard, went to [removed]
    instead of https://www.scribblehub.com/addchapter/1809/
    reloaded and it went back to normal.

    It's my test site I used to build https://www.scribblehub.com. I guess I forgot to remove the link :sweating_profusely:

    (I removed the link in your post so the others don't stalk me there as I'm still using it to add new features for https://www.scribblehub.com)

    As your table bug, I'll test it out tomorrow and see if I can recreate the problem.

    Also, your table of content reloading problem should've been fixed. Please test that out and let me know.

    Can confirm that table of contents now loads fine even after reloading :blob_grin: GJ.

    I was able to recreate that bug. You have to center the text within the cells while the table is left aligned then center the table when you're finished. If you need to edit the stuff within the cells, you have to left align the table again, center the text within the cells then center the table again.

    I can't really fix that. I'll research it more another day to see if there's a real fix out there. It seems like its' part of Wordpress and it's editor (TinyMCE). Seems like it's been bugged for awhile: https://community.tiny.cloud/communityQuestion?id=90661000000MrVIAA0

    The workaround isn't too bad though. Just have to center text within cell while the table is left aligned.

    @Blitz @Raneday @Das @AliceShiki (tagging random spammers)

    I couldn't sleep so I figured I might as well do something with my time and got a small feature out. Seems like there' a lot of chatting going on even though it's like impossible to find people so I implemented an easier way for you guys to find people

    https://www.scribblehub.com/the-lounge/ (Accessible from your user menu -> 'the lounge')

    Let me know if you find any bugs with that

    Good to know there's at least a work-around. Thanks for your work!

    @Tony
    Quick question, on Scribble Hub are we allowed to put links in our novels to, for example, wikis and discord servers for the novel? :hmm:
    Couldn't find anything in the terms of service page but thought it best to ask.
    Might be a good idea to do a FAQ page when you get that forum feature out to the public.

    Can we host our R-18 translated chapters there? Tumblr just banned 18+.

    Right? That bastard at tumblr! But @Tony confirmed we can post R18 stuff on the site, as long as it doesn't promote rape (portraying rape is okay) and doesn't show under 16 having hot sultry sex. Incest and beastiality is cool too.

    *Proud that i'm in the top 3*

    Even if would be short-lived, at least i can be proud that one of my works is in the Top rankings.

    Why not an official Discord?

    Tony's not really a fan of Discord since it takes the user away from the main site.

    Yeah, Discord isn't really good at preserving information in an organized way like a forum does.

    Yeah I mentioned that to @Tony . It's only working for me very rarely. I've only gotten the section to show me something twice out of 20 or so attempts now.

    Yup, that's totally fine!

    Yes! Translated stuff will be hidden from the main page though and can only be access through a direct link. It's a site for original authors after all so I shouldn't mix content. On that note, you also have a RSS feed for your works so NU can auto add your releases.

    I sometimes like to run my sites differently to see if it's actually better so it's better not to assume!

    There's an official discord server for https://www.scribblehub.com/ but NUF doesn't allow me to link it :blobrofl:

    There's a link to the discord server when you confirmed your email. It's an official discord but I'm not the person running the server. I need to focus all my time improving https://www.scribblehub.com/

    I figured the new feature would be really bugged since it was really late at night when I implemented it. I got really tired at the end but was so close to finishing it, I just stayed up. I'll check it out in a bit.

    What browser are you using? I'm not getting that with Chrome or Firefox.
