The moderating team Page
by Guest uratoh- 8 replies
- 2.2k views
I'd very much like to be able to select which groups appear on The moderating team page, similar to MyBB and vBulletin. o.o We're thinking on converting to IPB from vBulletin, but one of the hitches we reached was the limitedness of the moderating team page. An example of this would be our Assistant Administrator group. On vBulletin, we have them classified on the View Forum Leaders page as what they are, Vice Administrators. On IPB, they'd be clustered in with normal Administrators, which we don't want. I'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but it's always seemed like an extremely obvious feature to add, I've always been surprised it hasn't made it's way i…

1. Clicking your in your name should not show --Add as Friend --Send Message **In drop down profile: The order should be --->"Find Member's Posts--->Find Member's Topics. Not big deal but just how it should be the way it is in another places. 2. Double Send Message --One underneath Personal Photo and another located in "Contact Information" field. 3. Contact Information --While viewing your own profile it still shows "Send Message" at the bottom of the page in "Contact Information" field. (It should show only to other users not to your self. I noticed the top ones are gone though) 4. Personal Statement | Interests --When viewing your own profile, if there is no…

Banning IP Addresses
by Guest Mark Goldstein- 10 replies
- 2.9k views
Hi, I get a handful of spam messages every day. Usually I delete the message and user and add their IP address to the ban list. It's just occurred to me that unless they have a fixed IP address, this won't be very useful. Is it really worth banning IP addresses in this way, or should I just clear my ban list now, and if not, what is the best way to deal with the spammers?

It would be great if SiteAdvisor could be intergrated into the board. For those don't know, websites are tested for Spam, Scam, Phising, Popups, Adware and unwanted downloads. It's developed by McAfee. A red yellow or red cross appears beside the link. SA

Use full editor button 1 2

When editing a post could the "Use Full Editor" button be renamed to something like "Lose current changes and Use Full Editor"? I think this would help many users since I was editing in quick mode then clicked that button and lost my changes.

backing up your database
by Guest kissybissy- 5 replies
- 2.6k views
everytime I try to Back Up my SQL Database I get an error. I click on the link below the message "Once you have clicked the link below, please wait until your browser prompts you with a dialogue box. This may take some time depending on the size of the database you are backing up. " and it takes a long time loading, but the dialogue box does not appear, just a page saying the page could not be recovered. I was told on IPSBeyond that is due to the size of the data base, which is too large to perform a back-up in the control panel. was something done to fix this error???

This is what it says in the forum guidelines ... To maintain organization, technical support topics posted here will be locked and removed Can you please delete them, they are just burying legitimate threads. People know they shouldn't post this stuff here, but I suspect they are mostly using pirated software and cannot sign up to IPS Beyond. :thumbsup:

New Search Format
by Guest TestingSomething- 5 replies
- 1.9k views
I think it would be nice if the search had 1 more setting under the current one for "search only topic titles" which can be checked or unchecked like the other. I would probably rarely even have to use full search if that one was in there. :)

Topic Urgency Levels?
by Guest CallumM- 5 replies
- 1.6k views
I know there is huge potential for this to be inappropriately used, or have no use at all.. however, I think it would be very useful if there was some way of setting topics as "urgent" or something similar. It could be used very nicely in moderator's forums, notification forums, and especially on "services" forums, (skins, software, customer support). Perhaps there could be a setting on who could use this feature to eliminate the misuse. Best wishes, Callum

It wont be a bad idea to have one of the options in admin cp to make mode of registration only via invitations. Just like gmal.com does. Will prevent a lot of forums, who are spammed everyday.

My Friends - Java / Like My Assistant Pop Up
by Guest .Ryan- 8 replies
- 1.9k views
I was wondering why the My Friends tab, can not open up like the My Assistant tab? I believe it uses Java Script to open, much is defiantly much nicer then that ugly new pop up window. Now I do understand that this is not totally important but would be a nice minor suggestion that would improve the board as a overall. Any one have comments?

Causality filtering, inline conditionals
by Guest Ryan H.- 3 replies
- 1.9k views
A. I would like to see, in a future update, more advanced filtering methods be introduced--not as far as what can be filtered, but in what is meant by filtering. Currently it is a direct text-to-text system; the only factors which play in are the text which is to be filtered and whether it will be filtered tightly [any instance] or casually [standalone]. I would like a new, additional, factor to be introduced in the form of effect. Currently it transfers the said text to the other said text, always, unquestionably. I would like to see options whereby if the said text was found in a post, the text could either be replaced [default, as now], the post/topic it was in could b…

Cache Control Extensible for Components
by Guest krocheck- 1 reply
- 1.1k views
As a developer I am starting to use the caching system more, realizing that I am querying often for stuff that does not change too often. Because of this, I need to write into my component's ACP to rebuild these caches, but if there was a problem with a cache, I would expect some people to go to the cache control under Tools to rebuild them, however mine would not be shown or rebuilt with that utility. I think it would be helpful if a 'components cache' was able to be listed in there as well (separate PHP file per cache that includes a rebuild script) that will be executed if the user decides to rebuild that specific cache or to rebuild all caches. If this needs clarif…

User Specific Permissions?
by Guest Guernica- 0 replies
- 882 views
Is it possible to set specific users to have specific permissions? Like if I have a person labeled as Moderator, and he moderates like 2 or 3 forums, he automatically gets moderator permissions I set there. But what if I have someone who is something like a Graphics member, they get permissions from the Graphics Team (Permission Mask), and I can do a 2nd permission mask for the abilities. But you can only do that to UserGroups right? Is there anyway to change a user's permissions specifically? Like in phpbb2? When I am in Management in the ACP and go to Manage Members, there isn't anything that I can find where you can edit their specific permissions for forums.

If a Member has made a topic which resides within a password protected forums, it is shown in the profile on the latest topic tab. This is causing an uproar over at my forum...I think you should make it so topics in password protected forums are not pulled.

Profile Tab Control

Unless I'm missing a link somewhere, there should be a control area for the new profile system. More specifically, I would like to show/hide public tabs at my discretion (and possibly order them). For instance, I have IP.Gallery, but I do not want the gallery tab to show in my members' profiles. Keith

Musts for 3.0!
by Guest Strange_Will- 15 replies
- 4.6k views
So I've been co-administrating a vBulletin board (Thats where I got the MCP idea), and they have a few minor things that we should have in 3.0 I'd feel. Moderator Control Panel It's like the admin control panel, but lists threads/posts/calendar events that need approval, reported threads, posting announcements (instead of crammed away in the "my controls" section), and banning users (this should be on a moderator permission level basis though, I want my mods to be able to ban people, other people don't...). It's a lot more useful then the moderator controls thrown all over the site. Automatic backups While you could download mods to do this, the ones I've found have been…
