| Summary | 0001826: Add filename+extension for signature URLs | ||||
| Description | Currenty, SigServer generate the signature image URLs in the following format: http://sig.anidb.net/images/signatures/24108/Va03N/ However, some forums don't allow linking to images if the URL path doesn't end in a filename extension (like ".png", ".jpg" or ".gif" - very lame way to enforce image type check, but sadly that's the way for some forum software to do their checks). Adding something like "?dummy=file.png" is not a valid workaround: in several forums dynamic URLs are also banned (most likely as a security/antispam feature). Trying to do something like: http://sig.anidb.net/images/signatures/24108/Va03N/something.png ...also fails, since SigServer gives a 404 in that case. But it should be implemented in that way: allow specify a bogus filename at the end of the URL to make those naive forums to accept the signature. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Generate your signature 2. Go to your favorite forum and try to use it as a signature 3. Watch the forum SW reject your "typeless" image. | ||||

Because reading the documentation is so hard. http://wiki.anidb.net/w/SigServer:Documentation#Linking_to_signatures |
