Sorry, I didn't mean you should change it to a scrollbar (especially not a vertical one as in the example)
Ah. But isn't it better this way? I always find broken lines of code hard to read. And now it's also consistent with how theregular (non-colored) code tag works.

I'm not one of those but there are many programmer that break their code automatically when it's longer than a specific length. So a fixed length wouldn't be that bad but I also do not have anything against a scrollbar, I thinks it's better than exploiting the theme (like it can happen with big images) or wrapping the code in a strange way.

Happened again, always with my mobile, this time logged in.  Took a screenshot this time.

Great, this time I can find you in the logs.

The mod that is blocking you is the httpBL mod, based on the HoneyPot project. I have no idea why it reports you as a spammer.

Here is the page that gives more information about your IP, maybe you can find out the reason by looking at the details:
http://www.projecthoneypot.org/ip_74.198.9.65

Apparently there's an easy solution:

If you are the owner of this IP address, you can whitelist it by connecting to this paged from the IP itself (or from an IP within /24). Alternatively, the IP will be auto excused after 90 days of no activity.

Well thats exactly why it's blocking me, it's a mobile.  That means the IP address is going to be highly recycled.  It also means I don't really own the IP ( it will change the next time I switch off 4g to LTE to 3g, etc... ) so white listing is going to be of little help. 


It's not a big deal, but is this a plugin you can set a threshold with?

There's a threshold, yes. But I can't change it, there are many bots that are caught with a threat level lower than yours.

I just saw somebody used highlighting for GLSL code, that's very nice. Generally, syntax highlighting is a big improvement from the old forum. Do you consider adding GLSL to the dropdown list of codes (you could replace XML with it ;))?

By the way, do you know whether there are shortcuts for often-used tags like [code=cpp], [tt] or [url]?

I haven't found anything about shortcuts, neither in the native features nor in mods.

Ok.

Another thing: The Youtube embedding is good, but is it also possible to have links to Youtube without embedding the video? Sometimes I prefer not to flood the post with over-sized video previews ;)

[Edit] Ah, apparently it works when using http://youtube.com/... without www. But why do [url] tags not always yield links? To insert Youtube videos, one can directly post the link...

And is it possible that we directly get to the advanced search when clicking the "SEARCH" button on the upper left? Because we already have a field on the upper right for direct search ;)
