PSA: If you're making a Flash-tease, set the thumbnail image BEFORE you publish!

Post by Recursion »

If you scroll through the tease list, you'll see many Flash-teases that have a missing thumbnail and just say something like "Tease Name - Thumbnail" instead. This is caused by publishing the tease and then changing the thumbnail afterwards. I ran into this problem myself when publishing my tease, because it's easy to forget that the thumbnail is just the first image in your list by default, and you don't notice it until you publish it and see it on the front page.

The only way I could find to fix it after it's been published is to copy the entire tease, delete the old tease, set the thumbnail on the new tease, then publish the new tease.

So, if you're making a Flash-tease, remember to set the thumbnail before you publish!

Bearing in mind that Flash is well on its way out, and it won't be long before browsers no longer support it,
I get that Flash is an outdated technology, but considering that this entire site revolves around either regular-teases or Flash-teases, I feel like the devs should either make the Flash teases work properly or switch to another media player that uses the same configurations.
wouldn't it be better to avoid making Flash teases altogether?
I prefer doing a Flash tease over a regular tease, but to each their own.

Oh thanks FATALES, good to know. Kind of strange that there's a workaround solution instead of just making it work the intuitive way, but hopefully more people see this.
