Embedded extensions

[Kenni]

Hi guys,

Let me elaborate a bit more than just embedding a rack extension

So, developing further on our shop search engine Echo (https://echo.reasontalk.com/), embedding rack extensions with front/back images is now also a possibility.

Furthermore, the embed's will always be updated - That means that the current price will always be reflected. I see potential usefulness for developers - What say you?

Usage:

Code: Select all

[rackextension]Extension Name[/rackextension]

Where extension name = The name as seen in echo.reasontalk.com OR the shop page

Ie:
[rackextension]Synapse The Legend Synthesizer[/rackextension]

Cool feature. It would be good if when forum members paste a shop link this picture and price show up.

True, that could be a v1.1

It's a bit more difficult when it's about matching URL patterns with a remote service, but it's doable. I'll look at that at a later time though

How long does it take for these to update when a rack extension is published? I put out some new extensions but the tags didn't resolve to anything.

I actually just checked and everything seems to be imported now. The good thing about the BBCode is that the content of it updates itself.

The bad thing is, currently, that rack extensions images are different in size, so for devices in a 1U height, it's not necessarily... Pretty.
