New Discourse forum plugins — checklists and chat integration

The Scribe Devlog
#1

Installed the checklist and chatroom integration plugin for Discourse, along with a few patches since the big upgrade last week.

Please let me know if you pick up any issues.

Checklists

Here’s how checklists work. The following text/code:

[] Unchecked box without space
[ ] Unchecked box with space
[*] Box checked using asterisk
[x] Box checked using "x"

Yields:

Unchecked box without space
Unchecked box with space
Box checked using asterisk
Box checked using “x”

(You can toggle checkboxes by clicking on them. You might not be able to click these, but you can click your own.)

Chatroom integration

This is a backend plugin that is the beginning of support for pushing content from the forum to Discord. I want to get the automated posting of news articles to Discord working first before bringing this up, though.

Update: Ghost

Aaaand also a minor Ghost update which streamlined the admin backend a bit.

Yip. Nice. Looks like mods can select/deselect but other than that, very nice little feature.

They don’t work for me, sadly.

Maybe I can enable it for Regulars. Will look into it.

Also! Also! You get a notification when someone messes with ticks off items on your checklist.

And this is what happens when you click:
