⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

I've made another example where you can make a comments section from a generator with the comments plugin to properly "grab" comments from another generator besides yours (e.g., comments from generators on my power-generator-manager), even ones that don't even have the comments-plugin built into it, without without using any direct iframe linking to the generator, that is all using just a simple execution of square-bracket-enclosed code in HTML (or lists). In the example page, you can even choose the generator source and the channel you want to load the comments from. And yes, the users would also be able to comment from the example generator, and the comments would be stored on the generator page the comments was taken from (so it'll also display on the same page).

I've also found the same technique long time ago, but using a different technique, and I've actually been using it in one of my abandoned generators, Comments Customizer (which now doesn't work anymore due to new default URL structure which the generator doesn't support).

Not to mention, if you have multiple comments section in your generator, all those comments will get replaced by the comments from the same generator you've set to grab them from. Also, the options from the generator the comments were taken from will not reflect to the comments from the generator, such as bannedUsers and adminPasswordHash, so you'll be able to see the banned users and see admin comments that are not flagged as "admin".
