Design Do you edit your community's function/appearance for all versions of Reddit, and which versions have features that the others don't have?

1 Upvotes

I'm looking at 4 versions of Reddit: sh.reddit, new.reddit, old.reddit, and the iOS app. I'm aware that old.reddit is used by a very small number of people and many mods choose to ignore it because of that. I believe sh.reddit is the desktop default, so that takes precedence. I don't know where new.reddit stands as far as whether or not anyone uses it, but it still exists. And the iOS app is the easiest way to Reddit on mobile.

Some features that I've found are only accessible by using the mod tools of specific versions of Reddit (please correct me if I'm wrong about any of them):

- Sidebar link buttons can be colored. The colors are visible in new.reddit and the iOS app, but not on sh.reddit. The option to color the buttons can only be accessed by using the editor in new.reddit.

- The iOS mobile banner can only be uploaded by using new.reddit. sh.reddit's banner editor only applies to sh.reddit. old.reddit's banner only applies to old.reddit. Do you upload a separate banner for each version of Reddit?

- sh.reddit and new.reddit each have their own appearance editor, but it changes the colors on both versions at the same time and they don't exactly go hand in hand.

- old.reddit has a sidebar that only appears on old.reddit, and it doesn't display anything from the widget-style sidebar that the other versions utilize. Do you put anything in this sidebar (maybe attempt to copy all the information from the widget sidebar into text form) or just ignore it because nobody is using old.reddit?

Do you know of any other features that are exclusive to a certain version's editor, but still display on other versions?

Design Two questions about the Reddit redesign

7 Upvotes

Asking for Desktop.

  • Is the "Highlight: Last Visit" feature gone for good? On r/CompetitiveTFT we maintain a few Megathreads, some Daily, some Weekly and a couple Monthly, and it was a super useful tool to quickly distinguish comments that had already been screened from the rest.
  • Will scheduled posts ever be able to be pinned on more than the first two slots? Love being able to have more than 2 pins, but unless we can leverage the increased number to pin more than 2 scheduled posts it's kinda useless as a feature. It's also pretty hard to tell which posts will show up on old.reddit as pinned and which others won't. I tried reordering a few but results were inconclusive.

Have they said anything about those features?

"This community doesn't allow this post type. Your post will be discarded if you continue." My 'Post Types' allow any and all post but when I try to crosspost a video it gives me this message. I read some people updated their version and it worked for them but I don't have an update available on the PlayStore ( Android )

Hey everyone! I've noticed that a lot of subreddits have avatars with the little reddit guy in an outfit related to the subreddit topic, such as the reddit guy in scrubs for a nursing subreddit or in a business suit for a lawyer subreddit. Does anyone know how to make those or where to get them? I'm on an Android phone. Thanks!

Design Can We Use Our Custom Subreddit Emojis For Our Chat Channel?

1 Upvotes

(Android)

Hey, I'm a moderator over at r/ACForAdults & we've been creating/expanding our user flairs to have photos of the ingame characters that are on the game (AC being Animal Crossing).

The subreddit has a chat channel enabled, where we've wondered about the possibility of adding our custom emojis both into messages for the chat channel, but also adding 1 of the custom emojis into the title of the subreddit's chat channel.

I'm aware of typing :(name of flair here): to add an extra custom emoji into a user flair via the edit flair button when it comes to the subreddit, but would anybody have any advice on how we can see any of these custom emojis into our chat channel's title?

Thank you from the mod team over on the subreddit in advance for any advice/suggestions! It's appreciated.

Hi everyone! I have a fun idea I’d like to implement. I want to add an image of Pepe with the text "Click Pepe to make him happy." When someone clicks on the image, a happy Pepe image should appear instead.
Is this possible? Thanks for your help!

Is it even possible to change the subreddit's background anymore? I checked in community appearance and I don't see it anymore. Did they move it somewhere else or did they just remove it entirely? I'm using Desktop reddit.
