Is there any way to create a proper RSS feed? Generators mostly don't recognize the pages, and if they do, they don't pull images. I also get duplicate page updates (one that include index.html and the other without).

Hey-- I was helping someone use Rarebit for their neocities/webcomic. They wound up into an infinite loop complaining that the site was being janky.

I suspect it may be this line, where the error handler changes the img src, but if default.png hasn't been uploaded then it goes into an infinite loop.

cellThumb.innerHTML = `<img alt="${pgTitle}" title="${pgTitle}" src="${pgThumb}" onerror="javascript:this.src='${pgThumbDefault}'"/>`;

Chome dev console:

Replacing it with a handler that detects this loop (if it errored on pgThumbDefault, dont bother setting the src again) may be the useful enhancement. Perhaps a useful console.error directing the artist to upload a pgThumbDefault.

Btw, awesome wario video-- I coincidentially found that a day before this bug.

I'm mirroring a (solved) question I posted on StackOverflow in case it's useful to anyone here.

I needed to modify Rarebit to display a multimedia webcomic - where some pages may include text in HTML elements after or between images, some pages may include or be videos, etc. ( Like Homestuck/MSPA. )

User James posted this solution:

You can't specify more than one image extension as it is. In comic-settings.js there is a pgData object which defines some of the data for all the pages. You could add a new property to each object of pgData, "content", which would be a string containing the html content for that page. Then you would have to rewrite writePage to display "content" instead of the thing it's doing with images. Your images would then be tags inside the new content properties so you could specify whatever filenames/extensions you like.

This worked perfectly, although I mangled the code pretty aggressively in the process. Posting it here so others can use it.

Is there a way to do comments that are consistent for each page. I kinda understand the theory(hold comments in page metadata, use a js function to write it, but I have no clue how to code it(don't know js). Thanks for any help!
