Noticed making my ridiculous skill/spell post that the website help is flawed. Seems the parts under syntax enclosed in "< >" do not appear. Likely interpreted as HTML tags. Should be as simple as parsing them as < and >. |

http://www.shatteredkingdoms.org/help/726 Can I take silence as acknowledgement? Does the syntax section not raise an eyebrow for anyone? |

I reported this myself long ago. |

There is an automatic parser in use (in python, actually) that was contributed and very cleverly converts in-game help to HTML. It's also scripted to check if the help file changes and update the website accordingly. Unfortunately however we didn't catch a few items that we found since it went live: 1. angle brackets aren't converted to the proper HTML entities (> and < etc.) 2. some old help entries should not be listed (e.g. the *delear entry at the top of the help list) 3. management versions of the help files aren't coming out as planned, making it a bit harder than usual to edit some of the existing help entries There's also some fancy features we'd like to add (hot linking the "see also" footer in help entries; enabling keyword search across all help text; and others). Unfortunately I haven't had time to re-establish contact with the contributor to develop to parser further. |
