Read-Only View #53

Open crazedsanity opened 10 years ago

crazedsanity commented 10 years ago

Have a read-only view for each character sheet, use as the default view for everyone. Logged-in users (or anonymous users viewing anonymous sheets) would have an "edit" view, which would essentially be what the full character sheet is now.

The edit view would contain:

basic character info (the top information block)
bio (new: a special note that tells everyone some commonly-known things about this character; can be an extra block above "notes" in the edit view)

It might be a good idea to consider allowing the player to determine which values are publicly displayed: class, for instance, might reveal too much information (especially for NPCs); race might reveal too much if it is secretly a doppleganger; their real name may also in fact be a secret (the player might specify a public alias, or something such as that).

Without having a readonly view, links to character sheets have to be hidden (lest someone with the link edit it). Not a huge problem now, but it could quickly become one if the system was more heavily used.
