I’ve made the new post submission system live, if you’re unable to access it, have questions, or just want to be noticed, please comment below.
FAQ:
Q: How do I access the new submission system?
A: click on “Add Content” link in the header link bar. Please note that it’s all the way over to the left, immediately after the “home” link.
Q: WTF is this, I can’t figure it out
A: This is the default wordpress post editor, only MCS Plus members have been able to access it in the past, but now everyone’s going to be able to submit content that way. Write the obvious title and post content, then just drag and drop all the images you want to the post edit screen. Add some tags if you’d like, select a category, then hit submit. Tiki will come along eventually and see if the content is worthy of the front page and will post it over if it is, or mark it to be left where it is.
Q: What is the average air speed of an unladen swallow?
A: About 15km/h
Q: What’s next?
A: formatting of the plus side of MCS: recent images, recent blog posts. A return of the forums.
Q: What can I post?
A: Anything, videos, images, SFW content, NSFW content, forum posts, blog posts, movie reviews, whatever you want to post! If it’s worthy, it will be promoted to the front page of the site.

This is what I’m getting when I hit the “Add Content” link.
Snap!
yeah, that was the original thought, but now it’s on WWW, so post away
Didn’t we did this already, and more than one time, and didn’t it always ended up in despair, tears, etc. ?
you must be new here
i am moderator, here
you are now ban
Yep, yes we did, yes it did, and here we go once again.
Guess learning on ones mistakes, is an abstract concept for Mr. T.
also make it so the site supports cyrillic
God I’m so old…how else do you explain this complete and utter inability to simply post a pic. It’s back to the school of the inter web for me.
what’s up?
This all I see & get www.myconfinedspace.com/wp-admin/post-new.php
that’s what your’e supposed to go to, what’s the confusion? add a title, add some words, drag and drop some images, then hit insert, then hit submit.
There isn’t an option ( I should say, I can’t see) to hit insert or submit. I am using Safari and tried Google Chrome but no joy.
Same here, where do the pictures go??? there’s no “add media” button in the “visual edit list”, I don’t want to add a URL.
fixed it, try again?
Yup. think that worked, though the pic’s remained small? I clicked&added rather than dropped.
got it, select “full size”!!
Tiki, what kind of mindless sadlife bottomfeeding cnut is down voting the fact you just fixed something?
Don’t know, don’t care
maybe this will help? screencast.com/t/hcfI8STOM
here’s the end result if that makes any difference: www.myconfinedspace.com/?p=529679
I’m not getting past this www.myconfinedspace.com/wp-admin/post-new.php
I drag and drop image, nothing happens also unable to add text.
I tried Firefox and Safari…NUTTIN’
you’re linking to the page that you’re supposed to get to, so there’s no getting past anything, that’s the spot to add content to.
Perhaps if you click on the “add media” link?
Clicked the add media link but there is no getting past the “you attempted to access the “MyConfinedSpace” dashboard” page.
oddly enough, you account had no settings on WWW, but had settings on the NSFW side.
I’ve saved and you should now have the ability to post to WWW
All good! Much appreciated
Thanks, Tiki!
…you hotlinked a picture.
Tiki, I can ‘copy and paste’ images into the editor, but I can’t get the “Drag and Drop” to work for me. I dragged and dropped an image from my PC and I got a message that I didn’t have “permission” to upload an image.
you should be able to upload images now, I missed a setting or two
Thanks, Tiki.
I think I’m getting a handle on it now.
I just have to remember to tell the editor to post the image in the original size.
I suggest either original size or thumbnail size, yes
What about NSFW content? Use the “Add Content” link on the NSFW page or do I need to tag it?
The “Add Content” link is the same for all the subdomain now, I’m able to move it across sites without problem, keeping the author and content the same.
No need to tag it as NSFW, I’ll recognize it as such and just queue it up on that side of the site.
How do I go about viewing new submissions from everyone? There used to be a facility for that. Plus, I’ve noticed that comments are closed on some posts but not others. Why is that tiki? Thanks in advance.
New submissions from everyone: www.myconfinedspace.com/mcs-plus
can you show me a couple examples of posts with comments closed? that definitely not be happening.
Example – On rdeckard’s post Frankenstein (Peter Boyle publicity shot) it definitely says ‘comments are closed.’ I wanted to comment because Boyle is in one of the best X Files episodes ever, ‘Clyde Bruckman’s Final Repose.’
looks like rdeckard disabled comments while submitting the post, I’ve reopened the comments and removed the ability for anyone else to do that in the future.
Hey, hey…not intentionally!
‘Clyde Bruckman’s Final Repose.’ Yes, great episode!
Well, how about fixing the posts that are already posted, and disabled like this one:
Putting them of their retarded misery, is fine too.
there should be a way for me to force the comments to always be open, not sure why it’s disabled on some posts and not others, I’ll research and fix
Ok. I’ve figured the first part out. But I’m still confused about the second part. “I am not an askhole! I am a (wo)man!”
That unladen swallow speed seem unrealistic. Do you have empiric proof ?
It’s quite realistic … when you shoot at it, try it!
