I'm not sure if you're aware or not, but the auto-fill to insert a link in a sub is still directly tied to Phuks sub database. This makes it so that in many instances, (when sub auto-fill is used) the sub you select doesn't exist on Poal, causing an error when you submit it. This isn't a major problem, as you can then resubmit to a sub that actually is available on Poal. No biggie ... but annoying.

Example type ps (one of many): auto-fill for sub will bring up PseudoScience ... Poal doesn't have that one and error occurs on submission. This happens with any sub that Phuks has, but Poal doesn't.

Doesn't happen. You logged into phuks?

Yup ... have both up and generally do. There still should be a wall between the two though, I would think.

Edit: BTW, I don't get Poal subs when using auto-fill on Phuks.

I’ll take a look into it.

Thanks for the report.

The sub autocomplete on the create post page is not tied to Phuks at all and this should not happend (check app/templates/createpost.html:35 and app/__init__.py:1126). This is probably the browser's own autocomplete remembering things (probably because we aren't using fancy javascript for the autocomplete), so if you ever submitted a post on Phuks it'll remember it on poal and the other way around.

Makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.

I never even learned how to use the autofill for subs on phuks. Just thought it didn't work on mobile. Same as here.

This is PC/Firefox ... if that's the case for mobile, I should've clarified. Thanks!
