Here's a pretty big update full of tons of little changes! I've rewritten a ton of the back-end to make everything more stable, but ironically might have left some holes/inconsistencies. So please look out! Here are the changes that I managed to write down...

-----

The entire delete system (for both users and staff) has been completely rewritten. It should now be fully functional, optimized, and integrated. Users will now receive the new dialog box when trying to delete any of their content.

Bug: Hyphens were turning into %23 in articles

Bug: The word "cached" appeared before comments on some articles

BBCODE Enabled in private messages. There is currently no box to help you with the BBCODE, it's the same as all other parts of the site using this feature (comments, articles)

Chat now word wraps long spam words and has a /me command. (example: /me walks away produces *Catalyst walks away

Notifications panel cache now deletes when you view an unread article or read/send a private message. Meaning once these things are checked, they won't be still on your notifications panel for at least another minute while the cache is in effect

You can now click on your shouts on the Post >> Shout page to view them at the top of the page.

Fixed a bug Akhoya found when posting international characters in private messages. Luckily, the messages were actually there, there was just an error in my php.

International character support has been added/fixed in private messages (thanks to Akhoya for pointing this out), edit/draft article, chat, after posting a comment, article titles, recent activity, and a lot more places. This means you can now do this: t è ù â ê î ô û ë ï ü ç É À Ç all over the place!

Realized ajax.php was calling a really large function the whole time for every ajax call. I've fix this now, so EVERY ajax function should be faster for you, although I'm not sure if you'll notice... Most optimisations are mere milliseconds, but it all adds up!

Viewing a poll in an article has been redesigned to match your theme color. (The graph bars and lines were still grey)

Shouts are longer in your profile

There is a new option in your Settings. It allows you to automatically have a poll fully shown when reading an article

All users and staff are now required to re-accept the Terms of Service or Privacy Policy any time it has been changed. Not so important right now for this sandbox.

The entire site is now a bit closer to the panels

The "Message Sent" bubble in the inbox is now much smaller

Line breaks will no longer add "n" or "nn" to snippets. This doesn't count for old articles.

Shouts no longer show the report flag if the shout has already been dismissed

Design fix for all boxes/panels. The headers are now fully connected to the boxes (there was always a slight 1px gap)

Theme Update: Sleek's border is now a bit darker

Horizontal lines in inbox now match theme

The bar on the left side of a first set of replies in comments will now match your theme color. The 2nd set will still be maroon for now

The KU 3 favicon is back for now...

Deleted comments no longer show thumbs

----- Admin & Staff -----

When a user deletes their own article/shout, any reports for that content will also be deleted

You can no longer report your own shout

On the Reports page, you can now contact a user via a dialog box (just like profiles) instead of being redirected to the inbox

Deleted comments no longer show trash icons
