Its absolutely MADDENING to have that, copying and pasting the link. And then don't even get me started on deleting the projects/*number*/ bar and replacing it with users/(paste name)/ it gets really annoying because of this. I get around faster on this website by typing the URL.

supportPlease be constructive. Supports mean nothing, constructive criticism does. That's why it's called the discussion forums, not the ballot box.

Full support. Especially to check formatting/spacing for when I’m only using the Notes and Credits box, this would be quite helpful.
However, I think that when in visitor mode, the button should change to say “developer mode” or something like that. You’re already in visitor mode
Alternatively, we don’t need that if we make it a toggle or a checkmark.

I imagine it beside the See Inside button or something.Possibly a dropdown option under your profile? Under Account Settings, maybe?[…]However, I must ask, where would the button be? There is no room on a profile/studio description. For projects, it could be by the “Add to studio” and “Report” buttons. But what about profiles and studio descriptions where there is no room for it without it looking out of place?Hmm, you are right.
I will think that.

I think there should be a button called “Visitor View” next to “See Inside”. Only creator of project should be see it. When creator clicks the button, the desc will change to can't edited and tags can be clicked. When creator clicks button again, everything should back to normal. This would make checking projects tags and other things easier. It would save time.I like this idea
Update: This button should be in profile page, too. It can work for “about me” and “what I'm working on”.
Another Idea: Boomer001 gave this idea. Thanks for him!Also in studio description.(basically visitor mode will be in studio desc, too)
This Is How Will It Look Like On Project Page
(sorry it's bad)
Normal. When You Click It (remix is unusable)
It will turn into normal when you click it again.

I absolutely LOVE this idea. (Soup ort)Oh my, this is a big support. Thank you ;v;
I just haven't posted anything until now because I've never had anything constructive to add, after all pretty much everything has already been said. Anyway, I finally have found something constructive to post![…]However, I must ask, where would the button be? There is no room on a profile/studio description. For projects, it could be by the “Add to studio” and “Report” buttons. But what about profiles and studio descriptions where there is no room for it without it looking out of place?The Visitor View button could be next to the follow button on profiles!They do look quite similar, the visitor view one will just be yellow. They'd be around the same size, too.
For studios, the visitor view button could also be on the left side of the follow button!But then, the length of how much of a studio title you can see at once goes down, but that was never a problem, as the length is all ready pretty big.
Can you make some mock-ups Morimop?(If you approve of my idea of where to put the visitor view buttons.)
Also, I will make few mock-ups. I will share when I'm done.

-snip-It might be better if it did not show the remix button, after all, it would be rather useless. Also, when you click visitor mode, I think it should turn grey with the text “Normal Mode”.

I have created slightly different mockups for the project page:

(Viewing as the creator)

(Viewing as a visitor)
And for studios:

(Viewing as a manager)

(Viewing as a guest)
And for profiles (there is not much difference except the “report this user” button. I opted to remove the follower button as it would be useless):

(Viewing as the “creator”/owner/whatever you would call that)

Imagesi think those look pretty good! I think this would be cool so I could click on all the links and check it before sharing. I may include special characters and I would want to make sure they look right.

Sounds nice to me! I think that it would be better to have it as a smaller button somewhere else though, because the button isn't really a important button (it doesn't really do a lot except change the view mode). Maybe put it under the project viewer, with add to studio, report, and copy link?

Support! This is very helpful, when making project descriptions, you can edit, but can't tell if the tags, or links you used, worked, so this would make it much easier to do this!

I 100% support, hopefully it gets implemented. I've always been annoyed that I had to sign-in to my alt account, then look at my notes and credits or instructions on the project, then sign out again because I realised I forgot something.. and so-on. This visitor view makes everything better, as there won't be a giant “Instructions” box taking up half of the side and then it makes the Notes and Credits seem.. crammed.

I'm just giving you a little tip so that you don't have to struggle so much until this gets implemented - you can just sign out and go to your project and you'll automatically see everything in visitor view. You don't have to login onto your alt account.












They do look quite similar, the visitor view one will just be yellow. They'd be around the same size, too.
