Would it be possible to look at search for the next version of IPB? At the moment I find the search feature returns a lot of irrelevant results. I often find my self using google to find results on this site.

Update Topic (Edit+Bump) and Track Changes
by Guest //Nathan- 2 replies
- 1.7k views
I have two suggestions to enhance the edit feature: #1: Update Topic (aka Edit With Bump) You've written a long topic or post, and you know you're outside the automerge timeframe, and nobody's replied... you can either double post, or edit your post and risk nobody noticing... My suggestion is that selected groups be able to bump their topic with the edit. Add "Complete Edit and Bump" between "Complete Edit" and "Cancel Edit" and/or add "After posting, [Don't Bump | Bump]" with Don't Bump as the default in a drop-down box. Also, rather than "This post has been edited by NAME on DATE" change it to "This post has been updated by NAME on DATE". #2: Track Changes Ev…

Post Moderation [hide][/hide]
by Guest SpireInc- 10 replies
- 3.9k views
I think it would be cool when moderating topics if a moderator could simply use [hide][/hide] to "hide" specific text from the public's view, except from moderators and administrators.... this way we won't have to actually delete content or split a topic or whatnot, it can remain in that same topic. Perhaps the actual poster can even see a "A moderator has chosen to hide this content" box. Who's with me?

Custom Fields?
by Guest Blackbird111- 3 replies
- 1.8k views
Ok I have my custom fields set up and everything. But since I have a soccer forum and alot of people list they're favorite teams and players, it takes up alot of space and extends the forum load time. I want the custom fields to stay, but only in my member's profile. Now before I upgraded, this was fine, cause I deleted the custom title thing on the forum skin and it didn't show in posts, just profile. I went to where as I would at the old IPB Version, but it's not there even to delete anymore? Any Suggestions? :(

Sent PM's

Would it be possible to provide an option with user-created folders where you can switch it from being a recieved folder into a sent folder (where the To: is displayed instead of the From:). At the moment, PM's moved from the Sent Items folder to any other folder lose their 'To' identity.

This is far from an important feature, but vBulletin has it. When updating your signature, maybe there could be a Preview My Signature button in addition to the Update My Signature button.

Save Bandwidth and db space

How many running IPB get annoyed at seeing pointless quoting. Its not the users fault, its those stupid and buttons next to each other Most users when replying dont scroll down and use the they use the So lets have it so if they want to quote they first have to click on the button and then the button, no matter how many replies they want to quote. Another point is the uploads directory. Even IPG no matter how bad people say it is, well untill Adam sorts it, at least it does not put ALL uploads in one directory. Why does IPB do this. It's crazy!

i'm posting this here as can't access my client centre area as after 6hrs and 2 attempts i still have not recieved my re-setted password to get into it. are you lot on strike or something? is the automated system down/broken? Yup it is my own fault for forgetting it in the 1st place (it was unique to IPB for security reasons, also hence why i have forgot it myself, Doh...i know... i really do), also for promising my staff and peeps that the work would be done today to upgrade the forums. I can't do anything untill i get into my client area to get the update. *me crosses fingers and hope email arrives soon with reset password for client area from IPB*

Editable [quote] HTML
by Guest =Charles- 2 replies
- 1.8k views
I'm working on a new skin at the moment and it really irks me that I can't change the HTML for it. I've had to compromise. Also, IPB adds a break (<br />) before the quote text starts, which means there is a gap at the top of my quote. See here for an example of the gap. 2 issues that I'd love sorted. :)

[Sugg]Tab Browsing Cat
by Guest Grath- 4 replies
- 2.3k views
Hi all, Actually, if you have a board with, for example, a cat Programming containing several forums and a cat Skinning also with several forum, they are display both in the same time but you have scroll to scroll to get the second. My proposal is to display only the first and have a tab in the cat name line to switch to the others. This way the index page could be shorter and clearer with the same amount of forum as actually. Tell me what you think about that.

Clueless Here ... DEFINITELY Need Some Guidance
by Guest MIALMA- 1 reply
- 1.5k views
We run a biker forum and would like to add a place where members can list the modifications (parts, part numbers, manufacturers, etc. some descriptive text) that they have completed on their motorcycles. This could be linked to their member profile so that members could see what their counterparts have done. Alternatively, "site management" could use this information to approach potential avertisers and/or sponsers of the site, run marketing deals and or campaigns and perhaps give the membership some discounts based on product usage and/or potential. We are NOT webmasters or developers - we are NOT internet gurus - heck, we rarely even come over here (and we certainly…

Split posts
by Guest eyedam- 5 replies
- 3k views
Hello! The new v2 features move posts and merge posts are very convenient indeed, and we're using them on our forums. Yet for even better moderation - could you, please, implement feature to split posts? It too is needed quite often - when members are starting to discuss two or more different subjects and moderators have to split the discussion into two threads. It's not only a matter of one post usually, but the two different discussions are being led simultaneously for quite a few posts in the thread. To not complicate implementation, this feature could work per post basis - give ability to split one post at a time. The most simple case could be with a button…

Poll results bars
by Guest eyedam- 2 replies
- 2k views
Hello! I would like to suggest a bit different length calculation for the poll results bars. Basically, they are meant only for comparative illustration, so the most important (and, I think, the only significant) point is to see what's the difference between answer choices. I would suggest the width of the whole bar area to be equated to the answer which has received the most votes (not to 100% as it is now). Thus the bar of the answer with the most votes would fill the whole width of the bar area. And it would be easier to see smaller differences between answer results. This is especially important if there are quite many answer options and if the poll results ba…

Hi there, I'm new, so hi to all you guys... :blush: I've got a problem with my IPB-board 2.0.4. It's hosted by myself, and a link is over here: http://www.songohan.nl/orange_star_high If you see the memberlist on the top (link down here), http://www.songohan.nl/orange_star_high/in...php?act=Members you see it's incomplete. It should be more like this: http://www.songohan.nl/orange_star_high/in...&max_results=30 Now, there it's complete, but how can I make it to the normal page? Many thanks, Alex Witkamp - The Golden Fighter

Link Prefetching
by Guest Oleg Rodnin- 2 replies
- 1.8k views
What aboit adding link prefetching to IPB ?! In short, it is background loading of "next" page after loading current page. Applicable to multipage topic listings and topics with many posts. It can be helpful for a) slow connection users b) slow sites. In some cases overal server loading can will be increased, but for users pages will be loaded/switched more faster. Many of internet surfers already uses similar technology : after opening first page, them opens next in new browser windows or tabs, safely reading first page during background-like loading of next opened.

Skin Difference Improvements
by Guest andyjamison- 0 replies
- 1.3k views
Any chance that IPS can improve the skin difference engine to synch changes on all skins with one that the person selects. Or allow someone to export an xml that when re-imported would add or chage the skins again. I think this would help alot. This could also improve the skinning system where a skin designer changes something on their skin you could merger the changes with the new xml file

Those in validating
by Guest- 0 replies
- 1.3k views
My co-admin and I approve every member, personally. We make sure they have all their profile information filled out to our satisfaction. Those validating members can be a real stinker because there isn't a quick link to get to their profile right there in the validating window. We have to copy their email or id and go back and search for them THEN go into their profile. It would be very handy to have their profile right there in validating. Thanks for your consideration. Other than not having a comprehensive owner's guide, we are very satisfied!

Im searching for a category splitting mod for IPB. I searched Invisionize. but, did not find it. this is similar to that of topic-prefix mod. but, it can sort by topic-prefix too. like a tagged system. Is there any other support site has this hack?

Fast Reply indication in "users browsing forum"
by Guest Nime- 2 replies
- 1.5k views
Wouldn't it be nice to send an AJAX request to the server when person starts typing text in Fast Reply box, so that people can see that he is replying. Just like when user clicks "add reply" and everybody sees that. Also, may be good to send a "keep-alive" AJAX request to the server if the person is typing a long reply and this is taking more than cutoff for displaying user online.

Location of Search Forum / Search Topic text field
by Guest BrianB- 3 replies
- 2k views
Not sure if it was suggested before...(I did search though) Might be an idea to have these search text entry fields in a more visible spot. Currently at the bottom of the window when browsing a topic or forum. Newcomers may not know to look right at the bottom of the list. In a long thread, this becomes a little more relevant. Suggestions: 1) At the top left. There are usually buttons for new topic or reply at top right... so top left may be obvious to the eye. 2) One of the options in the drop list (Forum Options / Options)
