Preferred settings

[Maverick_GO]

Not sure when this went live, but great QOL update.

Thanks!

[Gia]

Yes, I saw it earlier too, development is on fire lately!!

[benjito]

You can thank @HongAnhKhoa for that one!

What does QOL mean?

[Maverick_GO]

Quality of life

[Lys]

What’s that?
Where should I look to find them?

[shinuito]

I also didn’t see it at first, I had to do some scrolling to see it on mobile.

Add options to save/manage/apply preferred settings for games.

On safari I needed to get rid of the bottom bar by scrolling

It looks great

Thanks @honganhkhoa

Oh, it’s on the custom challenge modal!
I never ever go there!
Nice improvement though.

Tried to save my preferred settings for the 1st time, and it doesn’t “add” below what I had selected above.

Then I had to try out whether it uses my desired settings above when I click “use” or the ones shown below, and it really uses the wrongly saved ones.

Is it possible to add a translation?

I went to https://translate.online-go.com but the strings “Use”, “Add current setting” and “Preferred settings” were apparently not proposed.

For visibility, it always helps to put bug reports in the GitHub issue tracker.

About the Bug report category

Please don’t use the forums to report bugs, instead file bug reports here: https://github.com/online-go/online-go.com/issues in our bug tracker. Using the bug tracker enables us to better track bug progress and allows you to see the progress of the bug more clearly. Generally speaking, we will not address any bugs that have only been reported on the forums (because we will not see them and this is not where we look for them). This category exists only so we can organize those reports some place …

Thanks, @benjito.

Fortunately it seems to work now, it does now save the settings I have set above, thus saving me from the hassle to do that.

First of all, the addition of preferred time settings has been a huge time and headache saver for me, so thank you to the people who made it happen — I don’t know if there’s a post about the update here on the forums.

As an upgrade to this feature, I would like to suggest the ability to give names to each one. For example, I think I might be going overboard with this new feature, and it’s now very confusing and annoying to find which time setting refers to what purpose.

new bug: number of byo-yomi periods unable to save. When I choose other settings and then loading something with byo-yomi, periods line is empty:

---

bug above is dangerous

@stone.defender

I replaced empty line with “2” , pressed create and then got this:

0 periods Byo-Yomi

I unable to create game with more than 0 periods! update: after some refreshes and change of settings, I finally created with 2 periods

@stone.defender What browser are you using?

[stone.defender]

chrome

[anoek]

I’m having a heck of a time reproducing that on any system, can you try holding down the shift key and reloading the page? (That should force refreshing everything to make sure everything is up to date).

[stone.defender]

I just logged in another browser (Opera) , chose other setting (9x9, fischer), then the one with 19x19 byo-yomi and got this:

changed empty to 2 , created, null x periods challenge appeared

[anoek]

I can’t reproduce it ever being blank anymore.

Can you open up a javascript console and type in

ogs_version

and tell me what it prints out?
