Use <title> tags by default with the image macros.

June 23, 2005 by Guest Quillz

One thing that annoys me about IPB 2.x is that it still assumes everyone uses IE (:x). In other words, with the image macros, and the images in general, they are still using outdated <alt> tags, which only work in IE. They should be using <title> tags, which are cross-browser, meaning they work in IE, Firefox, Opera, etc. Now, I know I can set up <title> tags by editing the image macros, but the point is, I shouldn't have to. This fairly simple procedure should have already been set up. Is there any chance this will happen in 2.1? Or, can it be expected in IPB 3? And I don't mean to come off unappreciative of IPB in any way. This is just something I t…

Warning Extension(3), Custom

June 22, 2005 by Guest Luke

A way for modders to easily add-on to the warning panel would be a nice option to have. For example I have a player profile section and some members abuse the section. I would like to be able to easily add something to the warning panel to disable their use for X amount of time. Maybe be able to add something totally custom where a moderator can add and subtract how much cash a member has in a shop/points system. And with this custom ability, make each thing a custom external module not part of the original code. Also I would like to see an option to adjust members "punishments" without moving the warning level. Related suggestions: Warning Extension(1) for PMs Warni…

Warning Extension for PM's

I would like to see an option in the warning section for a mod to revoke PM privileges for X amount of time. Currently I have a group identical to the members group with no pm abilities, but only the Admin's can move a member so it would be nice if a mod could do this and for a set amount of time. Also when PM abilities are revoked they can recieve PM's they just cant send them (but they can send them to super mod's and mod's ONLY with the warning control ability). This would be a very good add on... Would make controlling PM's easier, especially since we get complaints about some members spamming inboxes of other members. And the current method is a strait for me as an…

[REQ]Make Todays active topics and view new posts...

The appearance of the RSS feeding of topics means now that viewing new posts tends to be 'polluted' by loads of RSS-generated topics. Perhaps these can be switched on/off as a UserCP option when viewing active topics and new posts? Even better would be an option to specify EXACTLY which forums you want to know about when using these links.

Personal macros

I have an idea, take the idea of Custom BBCode one step further. Allow each user to create as many "personal macros" as they want. Kind of like topic multi-moderation, when a newb asks for help with IPB and the mods always post the same reply. If you activated this, you'd have a drop-down menu to insert your personal macros. These could be lines of text, favorite URLs (the URL to Firefox for example), or images. Regarding images, this would allow users to use favorite smilies from other boards. Or maybe you have a picture of your computer you built and you post the pic every now and then.

For some Javascript applications I need to put some code in the <body> tag, but only on some of the pages. Matt, could you therefore implement the <body>-tag as you have done with the <% TITLE %> so that it is possible to add some code in there, dependent on which page is beeing called.

Allow validating members to change their email address. Sometimes members may use an email address they thought was active, but no longer isnt. Happens a lot with free emails. Maybe have a time restriction where a member can only change their email once per X hours. Plus allow moderators to change a members email without validation.

Useful if you want to have a group disucssion between the offender and the moderators in a topic. Plus when a member is under moderator preview they can see/edit their post. Some members get confused when the dont see their post and double/tripple post. Also it can be used for a "private question" forum if a member wants to ask a question (and not be seen by other members) and any moderator can reply, in conjunction with the feature that automatically put's topics on mod preview.

Very useful if you have a player profile section and want members to be able to insert their stats in the signature. Or maybe you want a random quote in your signature every time someone views it. I made a mod for it here: http://forums.invisionpower.com/index.php?showtopic=167398 Kinda gives you an idea :thumbsup:

Ok... you know the "user online in the last 15 minutes" thing? Would be nice to have an option to have a Admin set amount of these with specific times. So I can have one set for 15 minutes (default) and have one set for 24 hours. Also be able to set the order in which it's displayed.

Seperate the current post reporting system into a single reporting system module. Have an interface support where a modder can use this module for other things such as the gallery module, or some cusotm module. That way reporting is not limited to posts, but can be used for many other things (including custom modules).

Hi. I was looking on your website and I couldn't find a spot to report forums. I would like to report this forum. I would like to ask a person who can check if a board had an IPB License because there is no registration code. They are saying they have no idea wether it's a Registered Invision Board or not so, I would like to ask you if it is. Sorry if I am posting this in the wrong forum. Thank-you for your help. :)

A lot of big busy forums are limiting posting a new topic with time. So in a specific forum one can post a new topic every 24 hours. I would like to see something like that in IPB, and to have an option to control how much time for which group and for which forum. This is important in some big boards.

I was using my favorite email program, Thunderbird, and I noticed something really nice about it I wish IPB did with PM's. When you reply to an email it show an arrow on the folder letting you know you've not only viewed it, but replied to it. When on my board today I find it's hard to keep track of what email's ive replied to vs viewed. Sometimes I viewed a PM and just didnt feel like replying to it yet. And it get's harder when you have 100+ pm's and get you 10 per day. So when you view a PM it does the standard thing. When you reply to a PM it shows a little arrow, or some kind of indicator, on the PM icon letting you know if you replied to it. That would be a nice …

I have an idea and have written a script to show at the top of the login only called welcome_guest.php. This shows the benefits for a guest why they should register and what they get out of registering with us. It would be good if Matt and the guys at IPS have ever thought of adding this feature into version 2.1 as a standard so Administrators could add this option to the board offering benefits to why people should subscribe and register with your forum...? If this were to be added to the Admin Panel, where the administrator of the board could decide on whether to use this or not would be an advantage. All I have done is right a very simple PHP code using the same C…
