In progress Ideas Done

Multiple eras in calendar

Make it so that you can have one calendar, but divide it into eras, for instance first era, second era, third era, or maybe ages, age of wisdom, age of enlightenment. Many fantasy worlds spans thousands of years, with npcs that might have been born in a different era entirely.

61

Mention dates

We should be able to mention dates, which are automatically formatted using the campaign's date format. Clicking it brings you to the month that date is in

54

Multiple Character Sheets

Allow multiple character sheets on the same entity. For example, rather than one massive sheet, it would allow having multiple smaller ones.

48

Allow characters to have multiple locations

NPCs aren't always static. This option especially makes sense when they move a lot, or when locations are small sized. It would be very useful when you search who might be in a location visited by the PCs

47

Enhancing family tree

Add the ability to add adopted children, a spouse's previous partner, the ability to add a child without a partner, and the likes. This would make family trees much more versatile and easy to use, because it'd allow for more flexibility of what can be considered "family".

41

Character status: missing

Allow characters to be alive, dead, or a new option "missing" and make it easy to filter and find them.

38

Gallery dashboard widget

Add a new type of dashboard widget that allows selecting a folder from the gallery, and displays images from the selected folder on the dashboard, with a way of going back and forward between images of the folder.

37

Pinned audio player

It is already possible to upload mp3 files to entities and pin them to the sidebar, but this makes the file a link. Instead, it should have the file be playable in the sidebar in an audio player without having to open a new tab.

37

Lines on the map

When we can use (dashed) lines on our maps, we could create (new) roads, rivers, borders, etc.
This way you won't have to create and upload a new image when something like this changes in your world.
You could probably do the same with a polygon, but this is quite tedious.

36

Set calendar date when adding a reminder

When adding a reminder to a journal or quest that can have a calendar date, automatically set that reminder as the calendar date.

33

Display the parent if an entity in dropdown menus

When several abilities have the same name but a different parent (powers/skills), having the parent displayed in the menu "ability (parent)" would make the selection easier.

28

Highlight search results

In long entities with multiple posts, locating the exact passage where a search term is located can be tricky. Adding a query parameter to the URL to highlight them like ReadTheDocs does would be helpful.

28

Quest status

At the moment the only quest status is "completed". Add a few more, for example "not started", "ongoing", "abandoned", and "completed".

27

Gallery roles permissions

Add the ability to set the role permissions for gallery images.

25

Add crescent and gibbous moon phaes

Mainly useful for Werewolf players, but might be aesthetically pleasing.
