Small Link Additions for Regions

Postby Paffnia » Fri Jan 08, 2016 8:50 pm

When a founder or empowered delegate/RO ejects a nation from a region via the button on that nation's page, the following subsequently appears in a green box at the top of the nation's page:
The Hive Mind of Testlandia has been ejected from Testregionia.

Or in the case of an eject and ban:
The Hive Mind of Testlandia has been ejected and banned from Testregionia.

The nation gets a link, but the region name is left unlinked. For ease of navigation, can the region name become a link? I.e. can the above be changed to this?:
The Hive Mind of Testlandia has been ejected from Testregionia.

The Hive Mind of Testlandia has been ejected and banned from Testregionia.


When you move regions, the region name in the subsequent green box is a link, so this change seems consistent.

It should be able to be a link like all the other region names.
If it ain't then theres probably a reason why, or a moderator has to create a link code. I would do it for you but I'm not a Moderator.

It's not helpful. And they are the wrong answers so far. If you don't know the answer, don't post. Clear?

I am telling you the exact opposite. If you don't know, don't post.

Do not respond to this. Between your incorrect posts in Technical and your spamming of my inbox, I have no interest in talking to you.




As far as the original point of the thread, that will need Admin attention. There's a limited amount of them and they have a limited amount of time, so please be patient.

I know you said to not respond but I have to say this I knew it was either a moderator or Admin. Even thou I said moderator I was close. Luna I didn't mean to spam your inbox, the reason I sent multiple messages is because I was wondering something. Also, I,m sorry my information was incorrect, but I was close. Also, suggestions are helpful. Even thou they weren't exactly on the mark, my suggestions could give someone else in answer that can be correct. Also again, I apologize for spamming right now but I had to say this. Plus its a game so its really not that much of a big deal when you think about it. Again, I apologize for spamming here.

Another thing. Your inbox was spammed because when I sent a message, I had another question to ask. Hey, it happens sometime. I didn't mean to make you upset. But what really got me disturbed is when you sent"You will never become a moderator or any other staff position." No offense, but you have zero right to tell me what I can and can't be, plus you don't know that, unless you have some special powers or psychic ability, I should report you for saying something rude and discouraging like that, but I wont because I'm NICE. Plus, you has a moderator shouldn't say that cause you take the fun and joy out of the game. I don't wanna read a message like that cause you make a person to not even wanna play the game anymore. All I wanted to know is if I could take a forum mod position, and here you come saying I will never be a moderator, that is rude and uncalled for, especially over a little game. Again I'm sorry for spamming your inbox and I hope we can talk again. I hate making people upset and I would always want to talk to you, and all the other players of the game. Sorry for spamming right now( for the 3rd time, LOL.)

An addition to this: when adding a region to one's dossier, it says:
Code: Select all
[region] has been added to your Dossier.

And when removing a region, it says:
Code: Select all
Removed 1 region: [region].

However, these region names are not linked; just plain text. Could they be linked as well? Oddly, when adding and removing a nation from one's dossier, the nation is linked, but not for regions.

Another place to add region links: when moving to a region with a password, the page says:

Code: Select all
Moving to [region]: This region is password-protected. Please enter the password below.

And when you enter a wrong password, it says:

Code: Select all
Moving to [region]: You have not entered the correct password for [region].

The region name isn't linked in either case. Making it a link would be helpful as an easy way to return to the region page if you don't know the password or just want to go back. It would also make it congruent with the message when you successfully enter the password, which is linked:

Code: Select all
Success! [nation] is now located in [region].

Thanks [violet]! Think this one was missed, though:

There are still some outstanding linking needs:

  • After moving to a region:
    Success! [nation] is now located in [region].
    [nation] still needs to be hyperlinked ([region] is already hyperlinked).
    -
  • Adding a region to your dossier:
    [region] has been added to your Dossier.
    [region] still needs to be hyperlinked.
    -
  • Removing region(s) from your dossier:
    Removed [X] regions: [region_1], [region_2], [etc.].
    Each [region] still needs to be hyperlinked.
These would ease in navigating (for instance, if you made a mistake and wanted to re-add a region to your dossier you just removed).
