A PM 'Multi Mod'

November 1, 2004 by Guest Karl

2.8k views
I would personally love an option to have "Multi-Mods" for PM's to quickly respond to users. For example if someone PM'd me regarding a staff position i could click the multi mod to reply with the form and info etc.. in PM. Would make things a lot easier for me for a lot of situations. Any of you lot agree ?

Forum listbox in new topic screen

I'd really like to see the possibility for a listbox in the new topic screen where users can select the forum where they want to post the topic. If forumnumber is unknown or Actives forum, it should say 'select a forum' and if no forum is selected it should raise an error. This would really help us cause users many times don't look were they are starting a topic, not cause they are blind, but cause they are just to lazy to browse to the correct forum before the make their topic.

New 'devolved' admin to members

I'd like to see postings emerge where the topic starter can re-arrange replies and put them together in another posting, so that more dynamic replies can be assembled in the case of on-line web authoring. This could be arranged through a request to transfer the topic or copy it by the starter. This folder would have its own features allowing polls and its own menu. Polls that are more dynamic - longer poll questions, pop up explnations, and other polls methods for getting combinations of data, which is also databased to members and groups. I see a big future for dynamic polls on the web. Pay per memory use feature automatically set up, so posters can pre-buy chunks of…

Start a topic automatically

Hi, I wanna to know how to do this in IPB. Say, I have many articles, users can give reviews to each article. By clicking a link, say "Users reviews", a IPB topic is started automatically. The title of the topic could be "Review to 'Title of the article'". Anonymous can post in the forum so users are not required to register to post reviews. Duplicated entries are not allowed. So you will not see two entries with the same title, say, Review to Google Hacks. Any API or example to implement this function? :-"

Feature request: Pay-per-read (similar but different from subscription) Used in: Selected topics and/or selected forums Desc: Require users to pay to read a topic. After payment goes through, the user can login with his ID, PWD and read the topic for selected duration of time, one day, one week or forever, etc.

(I posted this in another forum, but just realized it should go here so I'm posting it again here). The current IPB behavior after a member makes a post to a moderated forum is really starting to annoy me. Right now, all you get, from the member's point of view, is the Thanks page that quickly is replaced and the post is no longer visible to the member until it is approved. What should happen is that queued posts submitted a member are visible to that member even if it has yet to be moderated. I suggest a new RenderRow template or a parameter to the existing template that marks (e.g., a different row color) the queued post so it is clear to the member that the post …

I have a simple family website and my members value their privacy above all else. Under security options, I have "Force guests to log in before allowing access to the board?" set to YES. Unfortunately, any Joe Schmoe can see the IPB portal page without logging in. Please make an option that makes the IPB Portal also force guests to log in before allowing access. Thanks!

If would be good if we could have a number type of custom profile field. I know we can say that text profile fileds must be 'nnnn' format, but I'd likea specific number type that IPB can use in the Member search form. For number type fields, you'be able to search for 'greater than' 'less than' etc.

There should be a way to easily select multiple users to send a PM to. I often send PM's to 10 or so members at a time and it would be nice to be able to have your buddy list pop-up so that you can select the members to send the PM to without having to type their usernames in each time. Thanks!

No biggy but I use tabbed browsing, and I'd like to see where the title of the AdminCP is something other then "Invision Power Board Admi..." on the tab when I often have Invision Power Board also open on another. Perhaps it could be something like "Admin - Invison Power Board" Like I said just a little thing but thought I'd bring it up.

Social Networking type system like Friendster.com

October 17, 2004 by Guest nexthostbiz

Is it really hard for IPB to add the functionality of Friendster.com or Myspace.com or any of the many other social networking systems out there? Basically it just allows any of the members in the system to be able to refer others to sign up to join the site. And then remember the geneology of who referred who to expand the user base of the site. This will go very well with the converge setup since sites members can be linked. Personally i think this functionality should be a base functionality of IPB, but at the least it should be a simple addon product to the blogging or CMS system. Which btw i am VERY curious if there are any updates on when the latest release …

There's an option to set x number of days to remove these validating registrations. There should also be an option to put these members into a different group, like banned after x number of days. It helps maintain the number of users vs user number.

Suggestion 1. There should be an option through which admins can control the "remote images" used in signatures of the users. becasue some users when link to remote images in their signatures, the size and dimensions of the remote image can sometimes interfere with the board's layout. So an option which allows the admin(s) to restrict the dimensions and size of the images used in signatures should be made available :rolleyes: Suggestion 2. Just as IPB displays the forthcoming events to x no. of days, it should also have the option to display the no. of PAST events to x no. of days. e.g. Past events in 60 days blah blah... Sometimes, we need users to know what has a…
