Codebase Migration to Nuxt 3

[Asyncantiunredoify]

Site Update
Hello all! We have been working hard this past month on migrating our codebase to Nuxt 3 and have finally reached a stable version. Due to the nature of this update, most changes will be behind the scenes and you shouldn't notice a significant difference between this version and the last.

That said, there have been various UI changes to better accommodate the addition of comments:

• Chapters will now take up 3 rows instead of 2 on devices with small screens
• One line chapter option has been adjusted so that it no longer follows a strict grid
• Title and group pages now have a Comments tab
• Mobile PWA reader changes:
  • The progress bar has been consolidated into one slider

A few quality of life features were also added:

• Author titles can now be sorted on the author page
• When editing titles, you now have the option to sync authors and artists
• You can now see groups you're in under Groups > My Groups
• Added a save button to the settings page
• Added support for collapsible text in markdown

Nice. Can we have a link to the comments directly at the end of each chapter, instead of having to go back to the title view?

Open the reader menu (click in the middle of the image/screen or press m (if the reader area is selected)) and it'll be around the middle

1. Title page. "Comments" ought to be third: Chapters, Art, Comments, Related
2. Pagination. Non-active page boxes have become much more hidden without the gray background color - please add it back in.

Any plans to add option [variant] for strict grid for 1 line chapter option ?
The new change makes it more "heavy" to read due to the compact design (I assume this is to make room for very long chapter titles) and forces your eyes to change focus when "scanning" thus more tiring.

• One line chapter option has been adjusted so that it no longer follows a strict grid

Any way to reverse this?

• Added a save button to the settings page

Doesn’t seem to be working – meaning the settings don’t seem to be restoring on a different device or if I close/reopen the browser. Need to manually populate my blacklists* every time.

*Btw, when do we get filtering by genre/demographic? That 25 group limit in blacklists ain’t nowhere near enough, and it’s not that usefull either since many groups work on multiple genres.

Settings are currently all saved locally so no syncing between devices yet (the close/reopen of same browser should have them so that might be something though)

This is intended, settings aren't stored server-side yet.

or if I close/reopen the browser

This is not, something on your end is wiping site data on tab/browser close.

Btw, when do we get filtering by genre/demographic?

Sitewide tag blacklisting is on the list of planned functionality.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I assume this is referring to how the UI looks like when scrolling through the chapter page. So will there ever be an option in the future to select 2 rows again for devices with small screens? With the change everything just feels bunched together and slightly more annoying.

 

[Beregorn]

Open the reader menu (click in the middle of the image/screen or press m (if the reader area is selected)) and it'll be around the middle

Thank you, didn't know that!

No, because two lines isn't sufficient to display all the chapter information and led to usernames/group names/chapter numbers being cut off.

Nice written Announcement.
Most developers/staff have funny quotes, but only one doesn't: Fk you Plykia! Absolutely nope nope nope

Define "ancient"? 56 and prior never worked for v5, I don't know how much nuxt3 changed the requirements because people tend to actually update Firefox (if they're not holding out on 56, at least) - you're the first person I've seen with an older install.

Can't check it right now but 60-something (67/68/69 not sure). Last version before major UI redesign.

Three and a half years old, probably missing features we need.

 

[Mystic0909]

Is there still a setting to change the location of the progress bar? I've checked a few times and can't find it.
