May I ask for the reasoning behind the latest change? I don't really think the black sidebar with sepia story helps with anything and it looks a bit odd.

This change is intended to give the site more contrast. For comparison, two screenshots:

Do you (still) prefer version B?
 
  • (1) Add "Edit silently" to chapter edit page

Does this work yet? I see no difference, no matter if this box is checked or not.
 
There is a change about score and variables, right?

Is this the "invisible" option? But what's the third one then. You suddenly have 3 options to choose from.

Yes, you can now hide Conditional Branch Variables, keep the visibility or make them visible again.
You can change the visibility with each Score Change.
There are 3 options:
- No Change (sign with two squares on top of each other): The Variable inherits its own visibility from the previous Score Change. If it is the first time a Variable is set, the Variable will be visible.
- Visible (eye): If you choose this option, the reader can see the Variable in the "Score"-section of the Sidebar.
- Hidden (ban sign): If you choose this option, the reader can't see the Variable in the "Score"-section of the Sidebar.
 
Hey, I'm just wondering if there are any future plans to make the bookmarks easier to navigate? I think it would be great if we could view which stories we have bookmarked from the story map. This site has only gotten better and I think that this would only help improve it further.

Thank you for your suggestion!

We'll discuss it and see if it fits into our future plans. It's quite possible that we implement this.
 
May I suggest add a new option, to ignored some theme? For egzample I'm not intrested in incest or gay, and I know that I never be. Could be option for user to ignored some tags, what he choise?

There is already a suggestion about ignoring themes on the front page (Like the first post of a suggestion to vote for it) though I think there is some overlap with the next Patreon goal

If that isn't exactly what you are searching for, you could create a new suggestion in the Suggestions subforum.

I think you're having the same problem as described here.
 
Friedman,have you ever considered adding a members favorite stories to thier profile for others to look at,in case a person was curious what type of stories a given member likes,so they may be able to have a better idea how to fine tune thier own stories for that person to possibly read it?
