Spiders indexing topics in outline/linear+ mode

March 11, 2006 by Guest ellawella
2 replies

It's really annoying when spiders index your topics in a non-standard display mode because if a guest follows a link to your board from a search engine and the page was indexed using a non-standard mode, he/she may not register or read any further due to the display mode being strange or, in the case of outline mode, something that totally gets in the way of user-friendliness. Of course, the natural way to solve a problem like this is to ban the URI in robots.txt. But because IPB tacks the "mode" parameter onto the end of the URI (e.g. index.php?showtopic=123&mode=threaded) it isn't possible to ban. I thought a simple workaround would be to edit the skin templates t…

I manage multiple very large different sites that use IPB. I have a list super long of features that I would like to see implemented. A lot of these ideas have been floating around. I will consolidate a whole lot of them for reconsistency. Calendar: -Ability to modify recurring events per single instance or recurring instance (MS Outlook for example) -Ability to give groups/users capability to determine the visibility level of the Calendar event instead of root admin only having this privilege. Topic/Post/Moderation: -Allow custom restrictions on global moderators. (i.e. A global moderator that can moderate on 2 out of 3 boards on a forum) -Ability to prevent user…

A good idea for IP's, Users, etc. that are banned is to provide a space for the reasons behind their being banned, perhaps in the form of a log?

First of all sorry if I am not at the right category........ I am the owner of www.avforum.gr which runs under vbulletin, I am a person that wants always to upgrade and give the members of our community always the best. I saw invizion at www.aquazone.gr, I spoke with the owner and they told me very good things about invizion board. My question is, if I change to invizion, waht would be the benefit? Is there a reason to change? Is your invizion supports Greek language? Thank you in advance

[Feature Suggestion] Preset Permissions

March 5, 2006 by Guest andyjamison

I think it would be a cool idea to have a feature where you can specify a set of permissions and save them so you can apply the preset to new forums created For example if you make ever forum on your board use the same set of permissions then instead of having to select all those permissions each time you simply select the preset from a dropdown menu and your forums permissions are automaticaly set

(RTE) pre-defined writing style per user

Some of my users would like to be able to set their own default writing style, so they wouldn't have to select a font family, font size and style when they write new posts. Maybe would it be possible (in a future version) to remember last-used style with Rich Text Editor ? :thumbsup:

The three most requested features I hear on my forum are: - flagging - whereby individual posters are flagged to posts following this - self-search - a page where individual posters can see posts that they are flagged to, posts that they have made, and replies made to them Both these features were available on the old wwwthreads software. and lastly: reputation system - either thru rep points or karma This eliminates the need for empty posts that say "I agree" or "good post". feedback requested and welcome, Niccolo and Donkey

Adding forums is way too time consuming

Adding forums and moderators is way too clunky and time consuming. I run a forum in which every few weeks I add around 10 forums. Each of these forums has 3 sub forums. It takes hours and hours to add all of them, set all their permissions, name all of them correctly, put them in the correct forums and locations, rearrange them (this screen shows over 150 forums!!! ahhh). Dont even get me started on having to add mods to each and every new forum and sub forum created. I really, really wish the process to add forums had more dhtml. It should function more like Windows where you create a forum "folder", you can click it and rename it on the spot, you can drag and dro…

Add version to javascript file names

March 4, 2006 by Guest Coastie
1 reply

1.6k views
I think identifying marks should be made to the javascript file names. Rather than a generic ipb_editor_rte.js, how about ipb_editor_rte_215a.js or pb_editor_rte_215b.js Why would I suggest this? Because of javascript caching. How can we expect members who can't even get their email address right, read the directions, or fail to log in... How can they remember or even know to empty their browser cache and any temporary internet files. I think that is beyond the scope of many users Changing the file names with each revision would alleviate this problem as well as the many reported problems/bugs caused by running old javascript with new code.

I think a great addition to IPB for those boards with many forums would be to have an "add to favorites" link for each forum, upon clicking it, it will go in a row up top. If anyone thinks they can make this, I'll pay them! Here is a screen shot of what I'd need:

1) Autolinking words. Similar to a bad word filter. Certain words could be preset to automatically link to url's. 2) Ability to automatically delete profiles after x-amount of days since registration and no posts. 3) Admin have separate ability to view # of active users list when the function is off for other members.

Unblockable PM Groups

Just like the "Ignore Users: Protected Groups" to specify groups that cannot have their posts ignored, you should be able to specify groups that cannot have their PMs blocked by another user. There's a mod for it by FuSoYa: http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/6004 IMO, it should be a default feature. Would be very good to have for many different reasons.
