Can there be an option in the future to make our not active collectable inventory invisible?

I’m not sure what you mean? If you click them to hidden I’m pretty sure that hides them from your visible inventory! clicking them as active is what makes them appear in your lineup. I think, I’m not super well versed with collectables so I’m sorry if that’s wrong!

If you don't want your hidden collectibles to be visible from your inventory, you must unmark them as active for them to be truly hidden.

I meant this as I don't want people to see my inventory for collectables I don't have active. Like, they can no longer go on my page and look throu my entire inventory. Also if that does work I'm dumb I didn't realize it could work like that.

But I'm gonna try to hide and not activate mine and see if it works for another user.

Edit: boi am I stupid collectables like raffle tickets and the fireworks were already hidden in my inventory wooooow.

Yes, then unmarking active should achieve that.
I have my collectibles I'm not currently using or selling like this.

If you mean invisible to other users, you can hide each one that you don't want others to see. but I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about. Sorry if that wasn't it!

Edit: just saw that NefariousKing addressed this already!

Is there a reason why the human registration question is not a captcha code? There's been a lot of bot accounts and it doesn't help that the answer never changes

We used to use CAPTCHA but it didn't meet our needs. Question and answer has been the most effective method we've tried at keeping out spam bots. We change the question very frequently.

Does anyone know how to change my account's name?

You can buy a username change in the TBT Shop it’s near the bottom of the list of things you can buy! At least it is for me on mobile, you have to scroll down a bit but it’s there!

Can the op of the NH Screenshot thread get updated with the new ways of getting screenshots off the switch? They added QR scanning and the switch registers as a data storage device when you plug it in to your computer now.

Can there be a thread to ask for design opinions or should I post it in the FAQ or screenshots thread?

Would teaching people how to spoof amiibos be considered hacking or anything otherwise illegal here?

Yes, this is prohibited on TBT.

Alright, thanks for letting me know!

Not sure if this is the right place to ask.
I have a question about BB code: On some threads on the trading boards I've seen people using nice looking formatted links, a box with a description and a small preview image, to external sites like Nook Exchange. How exactly is this done? I'm probably missing something very simple but I can't find information about this anywhere.

Edit: Here is an example.

 

[Pyoopi]

@TecFox
Can you give the link of what thread you were looking at? I'll just guess what you mean.

Remove the periods in the bbcode
Link
[.url=website here] text here [./url] = link example or use

Spoiler
[.spoiler= text here] website here [./spoiler] =

Spoiler: hello

bye

Image
[.img] img url here[./img] =

or use

Image with URL embedded
[.url= website url ][.img] img url here[./img][./url] =

 

[TecFox]

@Pyoopi
Sorry, I should've linked an example right away. You can see one in the first post here.

 

[Pyoopi]

@TecFox
Oh okay, they basically just pasted the link of Nook.Exchange and it automatically shows like that:

Nook Exchange

Organize your Animal Crossing catalog and make wishlists to share with friends!

nook.exchange

The forum software automatically creates those boxes when you post a URL with no formatting. There is no BB code used at all!

E.g. if I post the link to this post as it is and hit submit it gives this:
