Pastebin Upload indicator

[GreeN!X]

Hey guys, I've been using the pastebin for quite awhile now and wanted to suggest something. I don't know if this has been suggested before but I think it would be good to see the upload progress of a pastebin entry. Since I have a very slow computer and crap internet connection, I'm not really sure if the pastebin is still uploading or just loading the next page too long and I think this suggestion should apply to the attachments part too. I know this doesn't apply to me only because I have encountered several users having trouble using the pastebin because of this very thing. I think the vBulletin might have a feature included that is similar to this.

So I think it would be more convenient if there was this indicator to show how much the files have been uploaded.

You can see the progression of the update, though it's not really much a lot of users see, it appears at the bottom-left corner of your browser, the same spot where you see these: "Waiting for Hiveworkshop.com..." and "Sending...". It will appear as "Uploading...1%-100%".

Well, that's also what people see when a page is loading. and that's why I think a progress bar would be a benefit of sort.

Yeah that's what I was going for; that;s the thing people see when a page is loading. But I do agree with you 100%.

It's a good idea. Progress bars FTW. I have a quick fix for you for now though. If you use Google Chrome, there will be a progress percentage down in the corner when uploading.

Yeah when I told Hera_ about that progress percentage I told him under the assumption that he was using Google Chrome

But Ralle, could you estimate for us when you can fully implement this?

 

[Daffa]

^what I expect from Ralle :

As soon as possible

But I'm sure he will try to implement it, he has too many works.

It's not a priority. When I redo the pastebin in the future, I will add a feature like that.

Ohh... of course, of course. I forgot you do things by priority; understood.

Thanks!

Glad it would be implemented. That would sure be a great convenience to some users. :3

Good Ralle, I hope you do this for IE and Firefox as well [dont blame me about IE]
