Tilde Guestbook
deepend


A simple, shared guestbook hosted at guestbook.tilde.club that you can
link to from your personal tilde page.

What it does

-   Stores messages (name, email, message) per tilde user.
-   Renders your guestbook at:
    https://guestbook.tilde.club/index.php?user=<your_username>&theme=<theme_or_default>

Requirements

-   Link must come from your tilde page: the request’s referrer must
    start with https://tilde.club/~<your_username>/ If this doesn’t
    match, the guestbook shows “Access denied: Invalid referrer.”

Quick start

1.  On your tilde page (e.g., ~/public_html/index.html), add a link:

        <a href="https://guestbook.tilde.club/index.php?user=<your_username>&theme=default">
          Sign my guestbook
        </a>

Optional theme

-   Create a CSS file in your tilde home,
    e.g. ~/public_html/guestbook.css.
-   Link to the guestbook with &theme=guestbook (omit .css). The
    guestbook will load:
    https://tilde.club/~<your_username>/guestbook.css
-   If you don’t set theme, it uses
    https://guestbook.tilde.club/default.css.

CSS customization (what you can style)

When you pass a theme, only your CSS is loaded (the default stylesheet
is not). Your CSS should style the page completely.

Stable HTML hooks (selectors you can rely on)

-   Page title: h1 (has align="center"; override with CSS if desired).

-   Intro paragraph and form:

    -   form
    -   input[type="text"] for Name and Email
    -   textarea for Message
    -   input[type="submit"] for the button

-   Entries list:

    -   Container: .entries
    -   Each entry: .entry
    -   Entry header: .entry h3
    -   Email inside header: .entry h3 span
    -   Message text: .entry p

Embedding notes

-   Works fine when linked from inside frames/iframes as long as the
    referrer includes your full path (/~<user>/...). The meta tag above
    usually fixes “origin-only” referrers.
-   Do not use rel="noreferrer" on the link—this strips the referrer
    entirely.

Troubleshooting

-   “Access denied: Invalid referrer.”

    -   Make sure the link is on https://tilde.club/~<your_username>/...
        (not just the domain root).
    -   Check that browser extensions or privacy settings aren’t
        stripping referrers.
    -   The error page will display what referrer was received and the
        expected pattern.

Example links

        https://guestbook.tilde.club/index.php?user=deepend&theme=default
