Neospring v1.18.0


Full changelog Support us


Neospring v1.18.0 has been released! Here's a quick summary:

  • A bunch of bug fixes for everything from user status notes to mail sending
  • Major optimizations on the back-end
    • Template build step to compile icons in, as well as add support for "{{ text ... }}" and "{{ icon ... }}"
  • MAJOR Translations (langbeam)

You're now able to contribute translations to Neospring!

To contribute a new language, fork the repository and make a new JSON (.json) file in langs/ with your language's identifier. (for example, English United States is en-US)

Edit the existing en-US file to include translations. Leave keys the same! The only thing you need to translate is the values. I recommend you learn how to read JSON before attempting this.

You must also change the name of the language. The langbeam documentation tells you how to do this. tl;dr net.rainbeam.langs:LANGUAGE_CODE_FROM_FILE_NAME_MINUS_JSON_EXT (for example, en-US.json uses net.rainbeam.langs:en-US).

You can change your language from your profile settings (or the homepage if not logged in). The debug language is available to see what keys affect what.

You are NOT allowed to use Google Translate or any other machine translation service to translate for other languages. You are allowed to use machine translation to translate the English values into your native language, of course, however it CANNOT be used to translate the actual text content.


Thanks for using Neospring! Don't forget, you can support us at https://ko-fi.com/neospring and get some fun benefits if you include your username and contribute $10 or more!

Omba shoomu, bungi shung. Abombo gungi.

are u able to see who sends these ?

If there was no way, you would be unable to have anonymous blocking and nobody would be able to help you when you're getting anonymous harassment.

We do the same thing Retrospring does.

Having absolutely no way to moderate anonymous content means you've just created a site where people can send illegal material to anybody with no repercussions at all.

you really need to make it so that we can't see people we've blocked on the public timeline

It's already like that on the actual public timelines. If the block uses the old system, it won't work properly. You may need to reblock them.

HII um in trying to retheme but it's not letting me at all, it like deletes the content in the text boxes when I put it in . . I put my profile on light Legacy mode some time ago and I had the same issue and I also can't change back to see if it fixes it . .ㅤ꒰ა ( ꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)

Fixed.

spark 1733071928174 *

my account, @vfd_centeral completley broke. Im unable to click anything, Could you try and fix it?

Fixed (account settings manually changed).

You didn't close the * selector, so it grouped it an incorrect thing that was never opened and included pointer-events: none; (below nav::before).

Your code looked like this:

* { ...
nav::before {
    ...
}
z-index: 1000;
pointer-events: none;
}

The correct version is:

* { 
    ...
}

nav::before {
    ...
}

Hey, still can't click "view content" on a spoilered post on people's profiles. It just won't open and you have to go to the permalink to view it.

Should (probably) be fixed now. I've changed how warnings work and look

i'm not quite sure what to do with that information, i tried to reset the code but that didn't do anything and none of my other images are working either and it's blanking out multiple profiles into the default pink colour, if the border image is what's causing this then how come other profiles are also broken?

Our servers are unable to reach postimg.cc, just wait it out and it should itself fix eventually!

It's affecting other profiles because your profile theme is automatically applied to other profiles if you have other profile themes disabled OR the profile has no theme.

If I don't get a reponse to a report I've sent, should I "bump" it? I'm asking since it's been two weeks since I've sent it in, but I was thinking maybe you have a lot of work to do and maybe I'm just being impatient...

Yes

For some reason, when I'm following someone, their answers don't appear in my TL for a while. Usually only after a few days. Is this supposed to be like this? Thank you for answering in advance!

Hmmm I'm not really sure what would cause this, I'll look into it!

what's this about? it's happening on every profile i visit (above is mine)

You may need to clear your cache. This has never happened to me and is very likely a fault of your browser.

After checking your profile, it's caused by the border-image of #profile_card, #question_box, #feed. It appears our server is unable to reach the server serving the image.

can we respond to asks we have reported, or will that fuck with the report system?

Yes, you can. Questions can be removed even if they have a response.

is there a way you can change the fact that the person can't send the question if there's a word we blocked? because of that, even when i mute death threats words, people get a way to go around it by censoring it in so many ways that its still visible and they can send it... so it kinda defeats the purpose of protecting ourselves. thank you

Changed. The API now shows no difference between filtered and successful

would there ever be a way to prevent blocked users from seeing and replying to your posts, i feel like its a flawed feature as if the person you blocked can still interact with you anyway if they see your posts (or heck, wont even be aware that youve blocked them because theres no indicator except for a profile with an error)

/+r/913dc17ef8 Currently only covering creating stuff, but I'm going to include reactions in this soon (as soon as I get to it)

anonymous 1732818546699

I apologize in advance for this ask, as I'm sure you're going to be rolling your eyes when you're reading it. Is it possible for people you've blocked to interact with your posts or even see them, at all? Forgive me if it is, really, I'm clueless, but I was sure it wasn't until someone I blocked commented on one of my posts. Again, sorry if this ask is annoying. Have a nice day.

Should be fixed now. Relationship is now checked for comments, questions (change is global questions are now included), and responses.

just a bug report but for some reason neosprings won't allow me to click on links that are embedded or whatever [](0 that formant is called

Oh that's odd, I'll check it out. Thank you!

for example, the neospring layout used to look something like this: https://postimg.cc/HJWdtyyB (i used a screenshot from retrospring since i no longer have a screenshot from neospring to show what i mean) and now looks like this: https://postimg.cc/34DWQGxY

i find that sometimes the layout shows up similarly to the first screenshot and other times like in the two columns. sorry if my question doesn’t make sense, but i wanted to be able to see my profile assets(?) on one page instead of how it looks now. if it's not possible anymore, please let me know but i just thought i would ask. thank you for your continued hard work :) hi, is there a way to change your profile layout to the old one where everything is on one page instead of everything b — What do you mean? https://neospring.org/+r/5d87a7d5d4

What OS and browser are you on? The mobile view still looks basically like that, so that's odd... I'm unable to reproduce the second image on Safari IOS 18.2.

Getting close to proper l10n! (Neospring v1.18.0)

Hey!

We're closing in on the release of Neospring v1.18.0, which focuses heavily on bug fixes and localization (l10n). So far, ~75% of the site has been updated to use translation strings.

Here's what currently uses translation strings:

  • Profile base text
    • Profile socials
    • Profile dialogs
      • Profile warning
      • Profile embed
  • Navigation bar
  • Footer
  • Response menus
  • Comment menus
  • Web API replacement dialogs
    • app:confirm
    • app:prompt
  • Compose post page
  • Notification actions
  • Profile pillmenu(s)
  • Timeline pillmenu(s)
  • Report page

Before this release is finished, we need to at least finish moving the following:

  • Settings MAJOR (contains A LOT of text.* fields)
  • Profile pillmenu(s)
    • "Feed"/"Questions"/"Manage"
      • /@username/mod does NOT need to be translated (right now)
    • "Global"/"Inbox (Mod)"/"Outbox (Private)"
  • Timeline pillmenu(s)
    • "Timeline"/"Posts"/"Global"
    • "Public/Following" (posts)
    • "Public/Following" (global)
  • Report page (contains A LOT Of text.* fields)
  • Mail UI
  • Chats UI

You can view all the text that has been moved at https://neospring.org/api/v0/util/lang?id=net.rainbeam.langs:en-US (as well as what may be needed if you want to help translate text into different languages!)

Thanks.

is there a way to block someone who has you blocked?

Not really, the goal is to completely separate the two accounts forever.

how do I fix my css?? Im on legacy light & I remove the API out of my links and yet my theme is still broken :(

Should be fixed

anonymous 1731522510116

people can still send links to images with no warning so does it really make a difference if its enabled

Yes because there is still the link confirmation. The best thing to do is just not click any links people send you. You can control links you click, but not images that are shown.

Side note, you can also just add "https://" and "http://" to the question filter and then people cannot!

Notifications for comment responses not working

Should be working

Note that anonymous users do not receive notifications because I don't care to store all that information for users who can't even be bothered to sign up for something which doesn't ask for their email.
