@tyller_
wut -
@cattyplayzy he stored hte answer in a database, but it turns out databases show what they’re storing to anybody who clicks them, I (and most definitely Jeff as well) were assuming it would only show to the project owner when you click the database, hence secure, bu it turns out it shows to anybody
-
LETS GOOOOO
-
@cattyplayzy Good job Catty!!! Tell me what you want me to make for you now
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
a banner similar to mine but looks more visually appealing if possible? (make sure canvas/viewport size is 1515x360.)
if possible, that is. -
@cattyplayzy
if needed, i can provide custom fonts. -
@tyller_ Thanks for telling me that, I was sorta aware about that but I didn’t mind because solving the puzzle either way requires smarts, whether it be following instructions exactly as you’re told or hacking stuff.
However this is actually a big issue if someone is for example making a project using a database table that would be filled with rows of private info, like usernames, passwords, user data, etc. So uh, @info-creaticode could you guys make it so databases in a project are always private, even when the source code is made viewable? In this case, some people want their code to be public, so maybe make it so database access is denied when another user is using the “See Inside” of a project as that user can probably use that to gain an unfair advantage in a game.
-
@cattyplayzy so you just want an image? Or a project? I can do either but I can do my best using actual image making software
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail Image.
-
@cattyplayzy ok
-
@cattyplayzy
Best of luck -
@cattyplayzy also im too lazy to check the project internal leaderboard thing so can you just paste the secret code here? Its not a secret anymore so its fine
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
Yeah sure one sec -
If you want to keep the database private, why not just publish the project? If you share the project, then it is supposed to be open, so anyone can access it, right?
-
@info-creaticode
He made a challenge where seeing inside was crucial. That’s why.
Plus the downside of that request is people remixing it and seeing what it is. -
@cattyplayzy
When a project is shared, it is the same for every user, so you can’t really enforce privacy anymore.
-
@info-creaticode
Yeah. I understand that. Maybe allow users to make a password lock on it? -
@info-creaticode actually that’s true, makes sense
-
@cattyplayzy good job thats the right code
-
@cattyplayzy said in Challenge - Solve the Puzzle. Due: Dec 31, 2024.:
@info-creaticode
Yeah. I understand that. Maybe allow users to make a password lock on it?If you share the project, it should be 100% shared, so a password lock does not seem to be appropriate.
This project of yours is pretty special, as you want to keep some secrets yet you need to allow users to look inside. Maybe a better solution is to have two projects, one for sharing the source code and the other (publish-only) project for submitting answers?
-
@info-creaticode
I mean on the Database blocks, password is optional though. Sorry for not clarifying, -
@cattyplayzy Made it for you:
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
oh wowww -
@cattyplayzy Thanks! do you think anything needs to be improved?
-
@cattyplayzy also u don’t have to delete these because this is related to the reward
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
Not that I can see so far. however I might change it after a while to something that looks better. Not saying it’s bad, it’s just that things can get old at times haha.
(oh ya) -
@cattyplayzy Makes sense, i do see you like to change your pfp and cover a lot lol
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
yeah haha
this pfp is a placeholder for my next probably best pfp. -
@cattyplayzy Ooo cool. I think it should match the rest of the space theme I’ve sorta made. Also as a recommendation, making really cool graphic effects is easiest done in https://pixlr.com/express/ for me, which it’s what I used to make your cover. (Canva might also work)
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
would love to but…
-
@cattyplayzy dang, that must suck
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
Canva isn’t very good, I tried making a new pfp with it and it just sucks.
Barely anything good is available without Pro. -
@cattyplayzy Yeah true
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail What’s the prize?
-
@011830-0a42ef84
something cool created by him.
he made me new baner -
@011830-0a42ef84 already gave it away, was supposed to be a super cool project but then became a banner image
-
@jeffreyrb03-gmail
yeah… i forgot about the project part, haha… -
