Working on the description

To work on the description, you have to press the button called "Edit Description"

Adoption9.png

There you will see the description and below it are a few buttons:

  • Open Edit Window: Depending on browser this will open automatically. You might need to give a permission.
  • Load Original Description: You use this button to if someone else (usually a staffer) changes something in your description. If you don't, you'll remove the changes made by the staffer and revert back to your last edit.
  • Save as... : Does what it says. It saves the changes you made in the edit window. Those changes will only happen if you click "update" in the edit window though.
  • Quickselect: Allows you to quickly load descriptions into the sandbox
  • Go to... : Returns you to the normal torrent page
  • Upload images to Image server: Imports the images in the description to BakaSHOTS. Only useful if the images are still accessible.
  • v1/v2: Determines which version of screenshot code you use. If you put screenshots below the description, leave it at v1. If you put them inside descriptions using the method below, use v2.

List of useful code pieces

Here are some pieces of code that you might find useful if you've never used html before:

Working on Example A

The Raw description Code A

Now, this may look scary, but it's not that difficult:

<html>
<head>

The first half of this description contains styling information for this template, don't touch that unless you know what you're doing (it's not that complicated, but why do unecessary work?). So let's focus on the part that interests us instead. It starts after the <body> tag.

<body>
 <div class="main">
   <div class="titlediv"></div>
   <div class="infobox">
<div align="center">
     <div class="info">

Editing Example A

Now there are two ways to get to the part that interests you:

  • Search the description for the sections you're interested in
  • CTRL + F the part you want (in this case: "Directed by")

You'll get to this code segment:

<b>Directed by:</b> Tsuneo Kobayashi<br />
<b>Produced by:</b> Studio Pierrot<br />

Now you use the wisdom in the useful links table above to fix the description:

<b>Directed by:</b> <a target="_blank" href="https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&creatorid=5348">Tsuneo Kobayashi</a><br />
<b>Produced by:</b> <a target="_blank" href="http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=group&gid=724">Studio Pierrot</a><br />

As you can see I turned both the director and the production company into links. I then did the same for the group (not shown here) and the database links. Here's how it looked before the edit:

<div class="links">
     <div align="center">
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=840">Anime News Network</a> | 
		<a target="_blank" href="http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=26">AniDB</a> | 
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.anime-planet.com/anime/the-twelve-kingdoms">Anime-Planet</a>
		</div>
</div>

and after:

<div class="links">
     <div align="center">
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=840">Anime News Network</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=26">AniDB</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.anime-planet.com/anime/the-twelve-kingdoms">Anime-Planet</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="https://myanimelist.net/anime/153/Juuni_Kokuki">MAL</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="https://www.bakabt.me/browse.php?q=Twelve+Kingdoms">BBT</a>
		</div>
 </div>

Note that the lack of the <br> means that they show up in a single line, despite the fact that they are in multiple lines of code. I alos took the liberty of shortening "Anime News Network" to "ANN" to make it fit.

After the editing was done I clicked update, then save as... You can see what it looks like here.

Working on Example B

Now the second example has a much simpler template but more issues that we need to deal with. This time I'll include a screenshot of the description editor as well as the full code:

Editing Example B

To get to the info you want you can use the same method as above. It's actually easier to find the necessary code segments, as this description is much more compact. Here's the first part that needs editing:

	<div class="subtitle" style="width: 874px; height: 57px">
		<p align="center">[
		<a target="_blank" href="http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=4781">AniDB</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.anime-planet.com/anime/les-miserables-shoujo-cosette">Anime-Planet</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=6912">ANN</a> ]<p align="center"></p></div>
	<div class="info">
	
		<img src="http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/lesmiztitle.jpg" alt="Cover"/>
		<!-- Recommended image width - 350px -->
		<div class="text">
			<p align="center">
				<b>SERIES INFORMATION</b></p>
			<p>
				<b>Year:</b> 2007<br />
				<b>Episodes:</b> 52<br />
				<b>Categories:</b> Historical, novel, World Masterpiece Theater<br />
				<b>Director:</b> 	Sakurai Hiroaki<br />
				<b>Production:</b> Fuji TV, Nippon Animation</p>
				...

This block contains the reference and database links (minus the two I pointed out earlier), the old cover image which is linked to photobucket (+ a comment telling you the recommended image width) and a block of series information.

So first of all prepare the links and the image you plan to use for the cover image. Once that's done, let's put it into the description:

	<div class="subtitle" style="width: 874px; height: 57px">
		<p align="center">[
		<a target="_blank" href="http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=4781">AniDB</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.anime-planet.com/anime/les-miserables-shoujo-cosette">Anime-Planet</a> |
		<a target="_blank" href="http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=6912">ANN</a> | 
		<a target="_blank" href="https://myanimelist.net/anime/1695/Les_Mis%C3%A9rables__Shoujo_Cosette">MAL</a> | 
		<a target="_blank" href="https://www.bakabt.me/browse.php?q=les+miserables">Related</a> ]<p align="center"></p></div>
	<div class="info">
	
		<img src=[bbtimg=173859] alt="Cover" width=350>
		<!-- Recommended image width - 350px -->
		<div class="text">
			<p align="center">
				<b>SERIES INFORMATION</b></p>
			<p>
				<b>Year:</b> 2007<br />
				<b>Episodes:</b> 52<br />
				<b>Categories:</b> Historical, novel, World Masterpiece Theater<br />
				<b>Director:</b> 	<a target="_blank" href="https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&creatorid=2194">Sakurai Hiroaki</a><br />
				<b>Production:</b> <a target="_blank" href="https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&creatorid=741">Fuji TV</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&creatorid=728">Nippon Animation</a></p>
				...

So I did the same link stuff I did before here as well. The new thing to look at here is the changed image placement. I uploaded the image to BakaSHOTS and set the width to 350pixels. I did that because my image was wider than 350 and I didn't want to downscale it.

Now I uploaded the cover image as well as the screenshots to BakaSHOTS:

Adoption12.png

Those are the tags you will use for the screenshot code. See how nice BakaSHOTS is, it saves you the trouble of doing anything difficult yourself. First look at the old screenshot code:

[screenshot]

[URL=http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/lesmiz00002.png][IMG]http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/th_lesmiz00002.png[/IMG][/URL]
[URL=http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/lesmiz00003.png][IMG]http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/th_lesmiz00003.png[/IMG][/URL]
[URL=http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/lesmiz00004.png][IMG]http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/th_lesmiz00004.png[/IMG][/URL]
[URL=http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/lesmiz00005.png][IMG]http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo26/darrx001/th_lesmiz00005.png[/IMG][/URL]
[/screenshot]

Those were all the photobucket images, that don't work anymore. Here's what I turned it into:

[screenshot=120]
[img][bbtimg=173860][/img]
[img][bbtimg=173861][/img]
[img][bbtimg=173862][/img]
[img][bbtimg=173863][/img]
[img][bbtimg=173864][/img]
[img][bbtimg=173865][/img]
[/screenshot]

Since I had 6 images I simply added a =120 to reduce the width of the thumbnails and make them appear in one row of screenshots instead of two. This is what it looks like after the fact:

I hope you aren't as scared of some simple html editing now.

Edit Info

Next to Edit description you'll see another button. Clicking that you will get access to a few more things:

  • Adding Keywords
  • Adding a link to anidb
  • Adding Attachments
  • Editing the title
  • Probably something I'm forgetting
Adoption14.png

Just don't request deletions, those usually need a very good reason and we're usually taking care of that.
