Third and probably final test!

(I will explain why there is tests later :P)

In the past couple of months, I have moved my gaming community from our Website forums to something more popular, Discord.

This was by far, the best decision that I have made as our community is more popular than ever. I had got a request from a member, asking for a MusicBot to be implemented.

Why not, right?

So, during one lunch time at work, I decided to get it up and running and it has already attracted a few people to exchange their favourite songs.

A few points about the features of the MusicBot.

• Runs on the web server that we have, so not dependent on other server providers.
• Allows users to input a single YouTube URL or a Playlist!
• When there is nothing in the queue, it defaults to a autoplaylist.txt file which contains nearly 3000 YouTube videos.
• Volume control
• Permission system
• Skip functionality (This is a big one)

And the developer is actively working on the Bot, so hopefully it will get more popular in the future.

At last, I have finally bothered my ass to update this website once again.

I have changed the theme from Uno Zen to Crush as it is a lot more simplier than what Uno Zen was offering.

One nice little addition was the Unsplash images. Everytime you reload the main http://pf.ie page, a new Unsplash image from the ‘Technology’ category loaded.

To do this, I simply done this with the index.hbs theme was:

On Line 5 change:

<header class="main-header {{#if @blog.cover}}" style="background-image: url({{@blog.cover}}){{else}}no-cover{{/if}}">

to:

<header class="main-header {{#if @blog.cover}}" style="background-image: url(https://source.unsplash.com/category/technology){{else}}no-cover{{/if}}">

So that is something I suppose 🙂
