My new contributions to the Hive Condenser

Updates to the Badges and Achievements

The recent addition of Peakd and Hivebuzz social and achievement badges stirred some controversy, some people loved it, some hated it and requested for its removal or at least for a way to opt-out.

I initially thought of refactoring the look and feel of the badges bar on the user profile header and add a new user preferences but after discussing with other members of the dev team we agreed on implementing @guiltyparties' suggestion:

• rename "Communities" tab to "Social" as it was pretty empty.
• move the badges from the header into the "Social" tab.

Bandcamp and Archive.org embedded players

I think I forgot to mention in previous update that there is a pending merge request for embedded players for Bandcamp and Archive.org.

Bandcamp embedded player:

Archive.org embedded player:

Merge request on GitLab: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/condenser/-/merge_requests/137

Notes

• Both features are still pending review, tests and deployment from the dev team.
• As for now, it is decided to slow down on addition of new embedded players since we have covered main ones already and would like to focus on other more important features and bug fixes.

Thanks for the update and the work you are doing. Going this route is a great solution and I find it much better than if it were optional (which I suggested before). Thanks also to @guiltyparties for bringing up this alternative implementation.

Small but significant changes. Thanks for the update and kudos to you and the dev team for the awesome work you are doing.

Should Bandcamp links embed in Hive.blog and/or peakd? The iframe code they supply is showing as invalid in peakd at least and direct links don't seem to do anything.

Cheers

Anyone know if these changes got merged - I've just tried to embed the Bandcamp player in a post, and it's not working...

[quochuy]

Please comment with the bandcamp URL your want to post and I’ll have a look. Something might have changed

[gribbles]

Thanks for that - it was these URLs:

https://gribbles.bandcamp.com/track/days-end

https://dutymusic.bandcamp.com/track/memory-bells

https://subphotic1.bandcamp.com/track/cathedral

They are all indivudual tracks as opposed to albums. Not sure why that would make a difference, but will try embedding an album...
