A Problem with Latest 5 Posts
 

Tonight's LOST was spoiled for me when I visited the front page and saw Sass's post about what happened on this week's episode.

I wouldn't have clicked on the thread, obviously, so that was a little, uh, disappointing.

Someone with programming knowledge fix this, please. I'm preoccupied.

Owned, that's what you for watching Lost. That dude is a spy, son.

If I had access to the code I'd be tempted to offer my help. I've also noticed the potential for seeing things you wouldn't want to. A simple update would be to just have the names of the threads shown in the top 5 rather than the posts themselves.

I dont know how to code this to hide spoilers so when I get home I'll try to remove the post content so it only shows thread title. I wish I had more time to take formal coding classes.

Sorry about that. Out of my hands, I guess. ;_;

Whatever happened to old-fashioned spoiler-space (which wouldn't work, but the concept is sound), or filling up the first sentence or so of your post with nonsense? The latest posts feature will be a lot less useful if I can't use it to see what the latest comment in the thread is.

Haha, not your fault. It wasn't a cliffhanger spoiler anyway so not as bad. :)

Yeah the most recent LOST was just spoiled for me, too. Not your fault at all, but goddamn this feature. :(

By the same person :tpg:

Ditto for me. Not sure how you'd address that universally though, because Slash was kind enough not to even tag anything as a spoiler. Just kind of dumped it all out there.

Tom is gay.


How bout we just do that for now?
Might look annoying on the first 5 post page, but at least nothing is spoiled.
