⚄︎ 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.

Perchance Saving Bugs

There were a few instances where in the editor ended up failing to "save", but the generator saving process still succeeded and is still recorded in the revisions.

I was editing my generator hub page that day and saved it by clicking on the save button and then it errors after a classic 20 seconds...

I decided to check the DevTools network and it shows all the details behind that saving process, and things look suspicious, until the revisions told me wrong.

@perchance My generator hub page is loaded with a lot of imports and due to the "save-after-reload" behavior, it took some time to "reload" and save unlike my other generators that use less imports (such as the Popularity Achievement Generator: https://perchance.org/popularity-achievement-generator).

But sometimes the reload can took a very long time (like 30 mins), so I think I'll just have to see the network tab to make absolute sure that the generator is actually saved 😆 (if anything seems to be wrong once again)
