Feature suggestions and discussion [READ THE FIRST POST]

This isn’t hard to do manually, but it would be useful to have an option to automatically subscribe to images with your artist tag.

Would it be possible to have some kind of randomizer that shows a different 5 badges beside the uploader’s name each time the page is loaded? :P

@Badumsquish  
Yes, because caching.

@byte[]  
Neat. I hope that becomes a thing some day :D

Request: Place tag alias information in the API’s JSON output.
 
Let’s say you’re searching for the old name of a renamed tag, say “raritits” vs “busty rarity” as an example. If you search for the old tag name on site, the search result page will have a header box discussing the “busty rarity” tag, along with information about the tag’s aliases and what other tags are implied.
 
If you then try to view information about the tag via the API (in this case https://derpibooru.org/tags/297135.json), there are entries for “implied_tags” and “implied_tag_ids”, but there isn’t any information about aliases, even though this information is listed in the HTML version. (There are “aliased_to” and “aliased_to_id” entries in the JSON, but they have null values and I suspect are something different.)
 
Since this is visible in the HTML pages, I’m requesting that you add the aliases to the tag JSON, too. So in the case of 297135.json, ‘“aliases”:“angel raritits, devil raritits, raritits”’ should be in the tag definition.

Can we please have a countdown until we can change our username again? It’s kinda annoying to having to come check every day until the 90 days are actually up.

@TheKingOfAverageness  
For what it’s worth, you seem to have changed your name on either February 4th or 5th.
 
So you should be ready to go by May 6th.

Since I can’t see it on the list, might I suggest a feature like ‘next/previous’ in a comic pool, like E621 has? I know most uploaders do add this functionality to the information box beneath the image, but not all do, and it’d be more convenient if such buttons were on the top next to the favorite/upvote/downvote, etc. buttons.
 
Thoughts?

@PonyPonyPonyP0ny  
If the comic has a comic: tag, go to that and then an image, then the next/previous buttons will take you to the right images.

@Lead Pie  
That is if the parts are in the right order. Because sometime an edited or updated version or higher res is posted, and the old one deleted putting the pages out of order. plus, sometimes fan edits and crops are made and also tagged with the comic tag.

@Mad Black  
That’s true. Plus some comics don’t even have a specific name tag.  
Could galleries solve this ?

@Lead Pie  
Can, but you still need to link it somehow in description (“featured in” is too far and may content unrelated galleries)
 
one week after  
And navigation in galleries is fucked

@Badumsquish  

 
I’m a bit confused here. To me, “because caching” sounds more like a reason why it would be impossible to implement the randomized badges on page load. (Without running client side scripts or stuff, of course.)  
So, at the risk of having to disappoint Badumsquish, could you please clarify this again, byte[]?

I mean to say “no because caching” but I was distracted

@byte[]  
Yeah, You really had me confused too xD
 
Yes, Because of a reason why no. xD

@Mad Black  
I mean this is one function of galleries right? To be pools?

@byte[]  
D:

@byte[]  
Would it be possible to do it only when the cache is refreshed? Then it’d be random per image, even if not random per refresh.

@GyroTech  
In theory yes, in practice I’d probably look at some more robust way of doing it

I’d like to post a suggestion for the site please. Can user profiles have “Last Active [Hour] Ago” tag under their “Member For [Days/Mths/Yrs]” tag. I think it would be helpful for users to know when their friends were last active.

@MichaelBrony147  
No.

@LightningBolt  
:(

@MichaelBrony147  
Sorry, but it is kinda privacy thing. Some people likely would not like others knowing when they were last online, or if they’re actively online.

@Joey  
I understand. Just thought it be helpful for friends or RP partners.

On the upload form page, display the resolution and format next to the thumbnail after submitting the file or fetching the url.
