| Forum (and club) topic and reply used to allow drag and drop of text into BBCode edit windows. As of a day or two ago, this behavior was changed to only allow image formats: JPG, GIF, or PNG. Blog and profile BBCode windows still allow text drag and drop. Text drag and drop was quite handy, especially for externally generated or repetitive snippets of BBCode and I'm sorry to see it go. If the change was inadvertent, I hope it can be reversed. |
Oh interesting, I didn't know that, but this is what I found outModal.alert('Sorry, this file is not a valid file format (must be JPG, GIF, or PNG).');
Modal.alert('Your picture is too big, please make it smaller than or equal to 2MB.'); //2*1024*1024= Total of 2097152 MBOn my end the following line is bugging for some reason (after I disabled all scripts and extensions I have on my browser) if (files.success[0].size > 2*1024*1024) {The bug might be somewhere around here Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'size')

at HTMLDivElement.dispatch (jquery.js:5429:27)
at g.handle (jquery.js:5233:28) I guess it is not that a lot of image formats are not accepted, but that MAL has a new bug making it not possible to drag and drop images *Edit I guess I found the issue, MAL only allows images from other pages to be drag/dropped on the editor, doing that using images on the current page wont work, most likely because MAL tries to convert/upload drag/pasted images to the https://cdn.myanimelist.net/s/common/bbcode/ URL, so images on the current page already use https://cdn.myanimelist.net/s/common/bbcode/ thus making editor.js break or not accept images already stored on https://cdn.myanimelist.net/s/common/bbcode/ to be dragged and dropped on the editor again |

| So you are referring to highlighting BBcode and then holding cursor, dragging it to the text box? I didnt even think of doing that but no it doesn't seem to work. WTF IMAGE DROPPING LIKE DISCORD WORKS?! Testing... @SnoopyInOrbit What I do is I put "Copy" and other important shortcuts on a mouse with extra keys on the side: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FNKMVUO This way it's simply highlight and one click to take the BBcode anywhere. Useful for many other things. This mouse also has multiple modes, so you can have a "browser mouse" setting and press a button to switch to a "FPS mouse" or "Photoshop mouse" setting and so forth. It can also record inputs of keys, so you can make crazy macros. |

Shishio-kun said: What I do is I put "Copy" and other important shortcuts on a mouse with extra keys on the side Quite the fancy mouse you have there. I keep a bunch of common BBCode snippets as text clippings on my desktop and used to drag&drop them. Now I have to keep them open, select, copy and paste. Three actions instead of one! Oh the pain! I wonder if MAL prefers we use images from their original source or drag&drop them so they end up on a MAL server. So far, I've just been referencing them where they originate. Maybe rendering pages from local resources is more efficient than getting images from wherever they live on the internet. On the other hand, maybe there aren't enough external references to make a difference. On the other other hand, link rot is not a problem if you copy them to MAL. In any case, it sure beats uploading images to a hosting service. |

Also useful in games like Overwatch with very few actual gameplay commands but tons of fun commands you want instant access to like voice lines. Putting Rshift and such on the mouse keys as well is a 200IQ move |

| @SnoopyInOrbit @Shishio-kun Funny thing, You helped me find the upload endpoint for MAL, and now I likely will add this to my "Paste Images" script, since it only uses Imgur for now, I could add support to upload images directly to MAL. The really funny thing is that I bet MAL coded the upload feature to check for the file type before allowing it to be uploaded, which limits users to often seeing the error message "Sorry, this file is not a valid file format (must be JPG, GIF, or PNG).", but with my script using the MAL upload endpoint I can bypass this check, and I now know that the MAL server actually supports "all" image types. For example, if I drag and drop a .webp image https://r2.starryai.com/results/1018912445/40b1d275-bedf-4d6e-8451-1b7874865d0b.webp I get that message, but if I copy the image and paste it here, my script uploads it directly to MAL... [img]https://cdn.myanimelist.net/s/common/bbcode/211a304c-9f39-4cec-b768-fdb444100635?s=86d44b8f6dc7bf8191e3bb3a603dbc73[/img] MAL converts all images on their server to .png I may release it soon, so you can bypass and enjoy it as well! * Their server also has other kinds of limitations as we mentioned before please make it smaller than ( 2048 x 2048 ) Your picture is too big (2,738Kb), please make it smaller than (2,048Kb) (I just learned about this one) Apparently, they use "Code: 4" when an error happens, so I suppose it has at least 4 limitations, but so far I only found 3 (size, dimensions, type). |
