I do not know if anyone noticed, but there is a new block on the right side of the website where the latest articles are shown. That's an easy way to track new posts.

@Lio
Since you have Wookiechat and AmIRC on AmigaOS, why would you need to use that tool? This is in case you want to get into IRC from other systems without installing and IRC client.

@Maijestro Quote: Now that we can post our own articles and instructions here directly in the forum, for which I am very grateful, is there a possibility that we can see in the main forum “News” that e.g. user xyz. has added a new article or instruction? We will certainly have something that will bring more attention to the articles, as they are uploaded. There are a few solutions that we investigate, before we implement any of them. I hope that soon you will see results.

@Maijestro Quote: It's great that you are making this available for this forum As long as it is useful, I am more than glad to do such work. Yesterday I updated the categories page and I hope that looks better now. I also fixed it to work well on NoCSS browsers. @McFly I published your new article. Thank you for that

New web application for IRC
|
|
Site Builder
|
Amigans.net have an IRC channel for a lot of years now. You can find more information on the chat menu and the "IRC Channel info" page. To encourage more people to use IRC, but do not want to install an application, we have introduced a new website that will help you connect to our IRC server through a webpage. To use it, open the menu Chat > IRC Window. A new window will open at https://chat.amigans.net, asking you for some user info before you connect to the amigans IRC channel. In case you are already logged in this site, some of the fields will be automatically populated for you. This website is hosted on our servers and no data is sent to third-party companies. This is an alternative way to connect and chat with other amiga users at any time you like, along with the Discord channel ( https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/ ... ic_id=8916&post_id=132391) Please let me know what do you think and if it helps you to connect with fellow amigans.

@McFly I have seen your tutorial. It seems you uploaded some html code from a website. There are even the meta tags of the header. This is unfortunately not quite supported. You need to use the articles editor and morph the text inside it. So, if you don't mind, create a new one. Quote: Would that be something for the OS4Depot or can the PDF be uploaded here too? Unfortunately, you have to upload the file into any third-party website and link it in the article. That is because the file and images upload in xoops is badly implemented. I am looking for a better way, but so far, the platform doesn't help much.

Thank you so much for that. Why did you post it twice? I published the latest one. Please let me know if this was the right one

A few minutes ago, I enabled the new articles section on the amigans.net website. Now the registered users can create new articles/guides/reviews.
Please have a look and let me know if you experience any issues.

@NinjaCyborg Quote: you could even let the user choose, using the ibrowse engine on aminet say, and webkit on a modern website. This would minimise the memory usage by avoiding using the webkit engine on simpler websites that work with a simpler engine. But you already have that. Run IBrowse in parallel with Odyssey and use the one you like with the websites you want. I do not see it as a proper implementation, having two different engines in a browser. As you said, the complexity of maintaining that will be huge because the APIs are quite different. So, you will end up writing a wrapper for them. This is not viable. You can still load two apps at the same time in Amiga.

@livebyfaith74
I use both of them as well. IBrowse is a great piece of software that I love to use.
It uses its own engine to parse and render the websites. There is no partnership, for now. We are developing two quite different applications.
Also, IBrowse is a commercial product and not open source.

@levellord Quote: What kind of articles could be uploaded into IntuitionBase? Any guide that could help AmigaOS 4 users on the software and hardware side, is great to be there. The examples you gave are spot on. But also we can have applications reviews, that will explain to users how an app can be used and what features they have. For example, I'd love to have a guide for how to set up Radeon RX on X1000. Or how to set up qemu and install AmigaOS 4 on it. Quote: Are there any kind of requirements? There are no requirements, except that the article should focus on AmigaOS 4 and AmigaOne hardware. Quote: Just one more thing, it's no big deal, going through the articles feels clunky. Maybe to divide them in different sections instead of scrolling down would be better? Just a thought. Thank you for that proposal. I will think of that and how to make them easier to access. Also, just to mention, in case you do not follow the other thread about articles, that a way to add articles to amigans.net is coming as well. I believe that it will be available soon. So, if you create a guide/review you can host it anywhere you like. I do not want to split the knowledge in many sites. Every website has its pros and cons, and the article creators can decide where to host them.

@trixie
Thank you for that. Those are more for developers, so, the OS4Coding.net is the proper place to have them, I believe. The intuitionbase.com is more about the users in general.
But of course, you can still update them and provide extra info to the developers.
Maybe you could post there the guide you had on amigakit's blog, which unfortunately is not live any more.

@samo79 Quote: Given the Deadwood's willingness to help and his work already done on updating Webkit, wouldn't it make more sense to consider updating Odyssey and putting this new project aside for a moment? I am already in discussions and collaboration with deadwood in porting his work to OS4. And I already started working on it. I don't know when exactly we will have results, but I wanted to let you know that this is happening. The goal is to join forces and have an updated browser for both AROS and OS4.

@Hypex
As others mentioned in different thread, even if the guides are old, most probably they will be still useful. We do not have such a radical changes in our platform, unfortunately.
If you find them, and you would like to post in IntuitionBase, please let me know and I can provide you with credentials.
Thank even for considering it.

The compilation of WebKit is finished at a degree. I had to cut some edges to make it happen, that are not needed now, but it is pretty much done. That doesn't mean we have a browser.
I am working, among many other projects, on bringing a minimal window which will be able to load a simple html, which requires understanding WebKit API. Haven't managed to succeed on that yet.

Yesterday I started doing some work in Amigans.net bringing one plugin to replace the failing articles one. That's why you might see the "Publisher" section in your menu at the right. This is inaccessible for everyone for now. This requires some more work until it goes live. I hope to have it ready soon-ish.
With this, anyone will be able to upload guides/reviews/articles under some specific categories. Then we will see if we can promote them on the front page and how. Maybe a block with the latest articles will be enough. I am also considering having a specific menu for it.
Unfortunately, I had to deal with a lot of broken code in the plugin itself, which makes it harder to start using it. It's not just install and use it, like everything on the xoops platform.

We are discussing for the best approach. I already did some investigation and work on a solution. I will let you guys know how we are going to address that.

After 12 years, IntuitionBase got its first new article. Sailor translated and added the "Graphics cards for Sam440ep-flex" ( https://intuitionbase.com/articles/graphics-cards-sam440ep-flex), which was posted in amigaportal.cz a few years ago. Sailor is known for creating excellent content, and I am glad that agreed to copy those articles in IB. So expect more to come. I would like to thank Sailor for supporting IntuitionBase. If anyone would like to push personal articles into IntuitionBase, I can provide you with an account. The way to add articles is pretty easy, with a nice and simple editor, in a friendly environment. The only thing that you need to have in mind is that the content need to be AmigaOS 4 related for hardware and software. Also, I updated the "Featured software" list, adding a lot more applications. This list is not finished (if it ever will) and more will be added in the near future. If you are a developer, or a developers team, and you would like your applications to be in that list, please contact me, and we will make it happen.

@Maijestro
No worries. I sincerely appreciate that everyone visit amigans for any information. I am not a fan of splitting things all around the internet, so I understand the need to have them here, as you described.
Let me have a discussion with the rest of the team on which solution we will follow to have articles and guides on the website, and I will get back to you.
