I would like it if in a future version that the date in the Messenger reflect the same use as in the board index and topic view. I know it's trivial but I prefer to click on the date and not having that ability is a pain in the butt sometimes. Pretty much I mean on the Messenger topic view I want to be able to click the date to go to the last post. Thank you dears. Keep up the fantastic work! <3333

Had a user give the following idea im forwarding on. Is this active already and im just a patch down or something? ---------- Move the CSS out of every single page and into a style sheet... come on GAS, you still need to do it! Example: This page with CSS (compressed): 33kb This page without CSS (compressed): 20kb 40% saving of bandwidth just by fixing that faeces. Makes pages load faster, less load on server, etc. It's the same CSS on every page, what you do is cut the CSS from the template file, paste it into a new file called like, "forums.css" then add this in the header <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="forums.css" media="all" /> It'…

It'd be awesome if we could use <else if> as well, so if we have multiple tests to run we don't have to enclose them in giant nested <if> statements. Is this doable?

I'd like to know, if there are any plans regarding horrible IPB search. In its present state, it's simply useless. It finds nothing, zippo. I mean, it does find a lot of things, but totally irrelevant to what was put into search window. I love IPB board, but the search is just NOT acceptable.

Just how Twitter works, when someone uses @UsersName it gets linked to the @UsersName profile. The same could apply to the status updates, as I have seen many people (on different sites) use @UsersName to basically reply to a members status.

We a the admin selects a skin they have to go to the main board to see if it change or not. I think making an iframe or something that would load the main board or front page so that the admin can see the change all or something like that.

Hi, so far so good.. IPB looks awesome!!! apologies if this has been posted n the wrong forum, Just wanted to enquire - Does IPB board currently allow users to input flash? or embed code like below; <object height="81" width="100%"> <param name="movie" value="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fdjmixes%2Fben-watt-stimming-buzzin-fly-25-2-2010"></param> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed allowscriptaccess="always" height="81" src="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fdjmixes%2Fben-watt-stimming-buzzin-fly-25-2-2010" type="appli…

I know that I grumble once in awhile, but it's time to give credit where it's due. IPS has great products and great support personnel. This latest board (3.0.5) is just incredible and the ACP has been redesigned for ease of use, even with a bunch of new features. The IPS support staff (I know I'll leave somebody out) - Josh, Jason, Michael, Mark, Matt, bfarber(Brandon?), Charles, Debbie, and others are the best you can get. A sincere thanks! :thumbsup:

I do like the mobile design. Clear nice view of content. I even thought of making it my main theme after I "IP.Content" the rest of my community :D That being said, I hope to bring up one suggestion: As you are redesigning the "View New Content" area anyway, please include the Watched Items there. Or the extended informations I am always suggesting here (hope not to annoy anyone of you with that :D), the Show Items I am most likely interested in (subscribed threads, new posts in read threads etc.)Watching the design is a pleasure, you can see that the main developer uses a mobile device to read and write on this webpage and therefore has an interest in accomplish that e…

The majority of people will not submit feedback because this requires work. The best way to facilitate this is give more than the forum as a tool for input. Idea #1 Let the tech support upload and idea as long as it comes over in written form. Idea #2 When an individual (with certain rights) submits a ticket, also offer the option of a feedback button on how to improve. This would mean that while I'm cursing out the software and asking for help, I can also input my suggestion on how to solve the challenge or to at least advise you of my concerns. Hey, make it easy for me to give you feedback. Idea #3 Give me a feedback button in the control panel so I don…

Hello, I would like to say to all those individuals considering making the move from vBulletin to IP Board that in my opinion you are making a very smart move. I left vBulletin because of the major and costly change they made to the vBulletin licence and how it affected current loyal customers of their product. I also recently experienced their lack of caring when a customer makes a comment about their licencing policies even when communicating in a private manner with the company. IP Board is a top notch piece of software and the help I had in migrating my vBulletin forum and Photopost gallery to IP Board and IP Gallery was first rate. Thanks Invision!

Hello, to my knowledge this does not currently exist, but if Ive missed something then please guide me to how it's easily done in all skins without actually editing the skins. When adding or editing profile fields this is one of the options you get: This makes it very easy to do this: <a href="http://www.twitter.com/{content}">@{content}</a> To make a link to user profiles on Twitter in topic view. But this is not easy to do in the profile view. I havent tested this but from what I understand I will need to add this into the profile view by editing one template bit in every parent skin and use the field key which you also define when adding profi…

Everything in your system requires typing or reading.....this is so 1990! 1. Create screen capture videos so that I can follow someone through the steps. 2. Give me audio files that I can use. 3. Supply pictures. At least 3 times what I was told to do did not exist because the screens had changed. With images I would have known this quickly.

As always users resist change. When we first went to IPB 1.2 from a WEBBBS flat file forum users were screaming. Same when we upgraded to 2.x and of course now when we upgraded to 3.x. But the storm has subsided and users are prattling on. Some Mac users are saying they can no longer use their CMD + Up Arrow to navigate to the top of a page. Users are wondering if IPB 3.x has done anything to negate browser navigation??

To show on the thread pages if they go to the first page of the thread (instead of perhaps clicking on the newpost link). I accidentally forgot to include it in a recent update and lots of my members asked to have it put back in! I didn't realise it was so popular. I can't see the option here on IPB so posting as a suggestion to get it included.

Whilst looking through some skin files I noticed the following; <!--<span id='{$editor_id}_cmd_switcheditor' class='rte_control rte_button' title='{$this->lang->words['js_tt_switcheditor']}'><img src='{$this->settings['img_url']}/rte_icons/switch.png' alt='{$this->lang->words['js_tt_switcheditor']}' /></span>--> Its commented out so obviously you had a change of heart at some stage, but is this feature ever likely to make an appearance in any future release of IPB?

In a lot of places, there's only space for names and not the group name. I think it makes more sense if we have an option to apply the color directly to names, not just group names. Since that is what will be shown on every pages, including gallery, blogs and etc.

I would really appreciate it if the Invision Gods gave us the ability to see some core statistics about our forums. How many members do you have? What percentage of members have posted? How many PM Messages are in the system? How many members have been active within the past 7 days How many members have been active within the past month How many members have been active within the past 6 months Who is the most ignored member Top 10 most viewed topics on our forum Top 10 most replied topics on our forum Average replies per topic Average views per topic Really the ideas are endless, but many of these stats will help out with organization and how to handle fut…

This has been requested before by others. Would like to be able to limit how many emails are sent out per hour maximum. It should count EVERY piece of mail sent out. Would also like to have priority options, such as being able to give new registration emails and admin emails priority over watched content notifications. Being able to specify a buffer (how many mail slots should be reserved for priority emails?) would help accomplish this. Also, when using the option to 'Subscribe to every forum', would like to be able to control how many people are notified per cycle. Obviously, regardless of how many people are notified 'per cycle', the 'per hour' should always …

I suggested this but in a big feature request topic that evolved very fast and then it probably became forgotten. :ermm: For the record, we already have good settings for them: But we lack a very important one: filesize limit for images. You dev guys probably know that an 1x1px picture could be bigger than an 1920x1080px in filesize, right? We just need to explore a certain header and... Well, I don't need to go into details, right? I can see problematic users doing this and thus it's not what we want, right? :) I can remember IP.Board 2.x days when we got used to use Signatured Limitation mod that had this setting among many others. Do you remember? :) [nos…

In the search module, when selecting a date range, there are buttons for pop-up calendars that can be clicked to input the date wanted. This sort of pop-up calendar is commonplace on many websites with a booking engine that requires dates such as booking flights or hotels or renting cars. Yet when entering a new event on the IPB calendar, there's only the dropdowns for entering the date. Would it be an idea to have a calendar popup too? Yes, the 3 dropdowns allow selection of a date pretty quickly, but it's nice to be able to look at a calendar as you often need to know what DAY a date falls on in order to select the correct date for your event. Perhaps the little pop…
