I'm working on a new guide and I've noticed a few things. The first one is the main one I wanted to bring up, but the others are small things I thought I'd mention:

  • When you move the purchase order sections, they delete the "notes for purchase order" and don't even show up in the guide. Purchase order and guide. Edit: It's completely gone now D:
  • There's also a doubling of the "Core Items" on both the missing purchase order and the one before it.
  • The icons for different builds aren't showing up at the top. I looked through a couple other guides and saw that it seems to only be an issue for DJ Sona.
  • Would it be possible if we could choose which DJ Sona skin for the splash in the cheat sheet? (Ethereal/Concussive)
Made this sig myself :)

Hmm, strange.. Will do some testing and pass that on if I find out why or when it happens. If you have any feedback on that (based on your experience), feel free to share.



Quoted:
  • There's also a doubling of the "Core Items" on both the missing purchase order and the one before it.

When the ability to swap full build & purchase orders was first released, this was an issue which affected full build re-ordering only (or at least I didn't run into it for purchase orders while testing). Should be an easier fix than the first point. Again, will pass it on.



Quoted:
  • The icons for different builds aren't showing up at the top. I looked through a couple other guides and saw that it seems to only be an issue for DJ Sona.

Actually, this is an issue related to guide revisions which Joxuu already made a thread for here. We deployed a fix for it a while ago and it looked like everything was ok, but the bug returned recently. We're aware of this and expect to fix it very soon.



Quoted:
  • Would it be possible if we could choose which DJ Sona skin for the splash in the cheat sheet? (Ethereal/Concussive)

This one's a little more complicated and is related to how adding skins to the database works (basically, the database expects every skin to have one splash art, not several). The only way of doing this right now would be to create three separate skin entries in the database ("Kinetic DJ Sona", "Concussive DJ Sona", "Ethereal DJ Sona"). Though this would solve the "cheat sheet problem", it would also mean that the BBCode [[DJ Sona]] would no longer work (which I feel is pretty confusing) and it might cause issues for users who try to save their skin collection on Elophant, too (though I'm not sure about that, I'd have to ask).

The alternative approach (which I'm more of a fan of) would be to change the current DJ Sona page and have it show all 3 splash arts (slideshow) which can then also be used in guides, but this would require dev attention and I don't think it'd be a very high priority change given the fact that afaik there are only two skins affected by this ( DJ Sona , Spirit Guard Udyr ). I can ask for this change to be made, but I wouldn't expect it to happen anytime soon.

When do we fix the bug where Toshabi randomly becomes nice, and it's only towards his crush, Wayne?
