Community Rules

This comm is open to anyone to post codes, layouts, resources, tutorials, and requests for help and content. Of course, we do have some rules, so please read through them before jumping in; thank you!

Treat others the way you'd like to be treated. This is not a drama comm, and we expect you guys to be awesome and stay civil. If a situation gets out of hand, please contact a mod, and leave comments intact so we can accurately handle the situation.

Please tag your posts and check out the tagging guide if you have any questions!

■ Very long posts or posts formatted with your own div styling for organization should be behind a cut to save people's f-lists.

Work safe above the cut, please!

■ If posting codes, guides, etc. absolutely do not post content that you did not make. That's stealing, and it's super uncool, bro! If you are posting expanded/edited codes made by yourself using another user's coding as well, please be sure you have their permission (You do not need direct permission if they allow edits to be re-posted in their blanket rules.)
■ Do not post tutorials/links to tutorials that show people how to steal codes from other users. Again: Stealing. Not cool.
When asking for help with something, please check the help tags (help: coding, help: graphics, help: icons, help: layouts, help: other) first to see if your question has already been posted and answered to avoid duplicates.

We do not allow game ads to be posted on this comm since there are so many communities specifically for that already; if you're pimping a game as an addition to a regular post, that's fine. (OK: You post an RP code and mention in the post, oh hey, also I'm running this game! NOT OK: Posts dedicated to game promo.)

We do allow other types of community promos if they are related to RP (icon comms, other types of resource comms, etc.) Just shoot us a comment in our dropbox beforehand and we'll let you know if it's cool to post!

I seem to remember being able to use custom styles on paid accounts to display pages much like one would a neocities page. Is there a guide or post somewhere that explains the process?

I thiiink? I have a breakdown somewhere? But it's not an actual tutorial so it's probably a comment lost in the depths of my journal lmao. Basically, you can either create a style or edit one you've already made.

If you want the page to replace an existing page, like your journal's friends page, you'll want to choose the right pageview for that so that you can replace it in the pageview dropdowns you get when you choose an S1 style. Otherwise, if you want to just use it with its generated URL (example) you can choose any pageview. I'd just toss it into Most Recent Events in that case tbh.



The circled areas are the only ones you really need. Choose a view and click create! From there you can click through to edit style where you're gonna see... a lot of overwhelming stuff. Here's the trick: Ignore all of it. Literally just, fuck all of it. It all has a purpose, but we don't it for what we're doing. All you need are the first and last input fields on the page.

You can set a title in the first input box to make finding it on the Edit Styles page easier.



And then the very last textarea is where you put your content!



And that should be all you need!

Thank you so much! As I was digging into advanced mode, I was thinking "I don't remember it being this complex!"

Yeah! It looks like way too much effort until you realize none of the textboxes actually matter for the kind of stuff we usually use them for hahaha. All those other areas have super useful purposes, but I just don't think anyone makes anything that requires them these days.
