The current way to do it is to create a details page (details pages have the "Printable" link at top-right that removes the header/footer/etc), using ((Cardname)) or ((C123456789)) to embed mockups of the cards you want. You're free to delete the details page after printing it, and if you use ((C123456789)) format it can be in any set.
I'll see if there's any other way to do it that makes sense. I could make something like transient details pages, which only exist for long enough to be shown once.
Oh yeah, I actually forgot they were different. Maybe we should turn off round brackets for mana totally after all? (Although I don't know if anyone has been using them like that.)
Really, I don't know why parenthesis can be used for mana symbols anywhere. The Fancy Brackets do the job fine... I never even noticed it until I happened to type in an (s).
This is a really small issue and not very urgent, but I keep finding myself typing (.1), (.2) or (.A), (.B) to list a series of things in a comment, and I always forget and they appear as mana symbols.
I'm not sure exactly how to fix it, since we want to use mana symbols in comments sometimes. One way would be to have a special character that could be included at the start of the bracket that says "remove this symbol and show the bracket as text" (like the full stop above).
Another would be to auto-detect circumstances where they shouldn't be expanded (but probably wouldn't work as I can't think of any rules where it would work).
Another more complicated option would be to let people customise the brackets used for markup on a per-user basis. That's a lot of work and probably not really worth it, but might be at some point in the future.
Yeah, that seems useful. The simplest way would probably be to have a text box where you can enter card codes or names, like for a new detail page, and it generates a one-off page with those images. The simplest would be if it just used the normal mark-up formatting, but it would be convenient if you could enter "4 CW01" instead of "((CW01}}((CW01}}((CW01}}((CW01}}"
It might be more useful if there was a way of getting there from a cardlist view: eg. show all active cards, filter by rarity=common, show me most recently changed, select the 10 most recently changed and generate a page with those images. That would be more work and you'd have to decide exactly what it did, so maybe, maybe not, depending how complicated it would be.
This of course assumes that there isn't some way to do this that I'm not currently aware of. For right now, in Magic20XD6, I've been making booster packs and getting them ready for draft. But, down the road, I'll need specific quantities of certain cards. Either because I'll have plenty of cards, and I only need to print a few to fill in the gaps from draft, or to reprint cards that needed changing after they've been tested. Obviously, the same problems are coming to a head right now in the Community set. As certain cards become very different, it would be best to print 4x card X and 4x card Y. I don't think there's any way to do that right now.
Ah, yes, skeletons are included in the caching as well. But the skeleton (and all other pages) should be updated whenever anyone creates or edits a card. It's only comments which I believe currently don't expire caches when they should.
Does that apply to skeletons? I noticed the skeleton didn't seem to update when I removed enchantment digger and made a new CW07 card, but forgot to say anything.
I think that'd achieve this, but I think this is actually another request for Get emailed when things happen and/or "Stuff for me" notifications.

Yeah, Markdown - like UseModWiki and I think MediaWiki - treats indented paragraphs as preformatted text. I basically just removed the spaces at the start of every line, and poof, it reads nicely now. :)
Sweet, thanks man. Sorry I forgot to give you more info on this bug, I kind of forgot about it. I was just putting text into the input field, not even actually using the \
Excellent!

Makes a lot of sense. I think this is basically the same issue as Filter when viewing Visual spoiler/Cardlist, but nonetheless thanks for the prompt; I could probably add this pretty quickly without having to finish the whole big refactoring skeleton/cardlist/VS integration that I've got planned.

I edited the details page to use proper Markdown for you.

I also like how Blind Eternities sounds, and I think it's fine that it's referring to the space rather than the planes. But on the downside, it sounds a bit clunky as a domain name, and it's even more so wizards' intellectual property (since multiverse is just an internal database, and is also a common word), and I don't know if it'd be meaningful to people not already steeped in magic creative.
(I'd never heard of it before now, or forgotten -- I love a lot of the flavour wizards invents for planes, but never got into the flavour of the universe or the famous stories.)
It'd be nice if you could specify the default you prefer somehow (defaulting to common is kinda useful when you're creating a lot of commons)
But yeah, just leaving the rarity off if they forget to specify one is probably saner.
The Blind Eternities sounds fancy. If you're worried about Wizards disliking that, you could go with some obvious riff off of that, like the Seeing Infinities. Or the Infinite Visions. Or... something better.
