Board Offline - Open / Close Timing
by Guest Logan- 1 reply
- 1.6k views
I think it'd be really neat to implement into the board offline feature what was recently added to topics, open / close times. Specify Board Close Time: MM/DD/YYYY [ ] HH:MM [ ] Specify Board Open Time: MM/DD/YYYY [ ] HH:MM [ ]

I went through my customer centre and purchased a new license. I received an email saying it had gone through but it is still showing as pending in my customer center. I have done a support ticket saying this. I am a little reluctant to go through the payment process again if this one is just caught up somewhere. Can someone from the team have a look into it for me please. Thanks in advance.

Multiple Rank Paths
by Guest Tomm- 2 replies
- 1.9k views
This is something i hope finds it's way to a future release, multiple rank paths. Let me explain, let use Star Trek for an example here, when a new user joins they can pick what rank path they want to be on (starfleet, romulan, klingon etc..) so basically there is a seting that ties a user to a set rank path. Right now we only have one rank path, but if we were alowed to make multiple rank paths (starfleet, klingon, romulan etc ranks) than a particular user can tie to the one he/she picks. Now there is a workaround but it is Very cumbersome, that is to have different groups that promote to other groups to achive the desired rank after a certain # of posts. The problem i…

Subscription manager drop down for subscription length
by Guest RafaelT- 0 replies
- 1.3k views
There should be an option to put a dropdown with diffirent lengths selectable next to the package. I have three levels of membership I offer, to offer them on a one and three month basis it requires 6 packages to be shown. Level 1: Premium Membership $1.50 per month - 1 Month Level 2: Premium membership $2.75 per month - 1 Month Level 3: Premium membership $4.50 per month - 1 Month Level 1: Premium membership $1.50 per month - 3 Month Level 2: Premium membership $2.75 per month - 3 Month Level 3: Premium membership $4.50 per month - 3 Month If I were able to put a drop down with 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 month options it would reduce the clutter on the page and make i…

Invision Community
by Guest Sonic98- 3 replies
- 2.1k views
I wouldn't mind seeing invision developing a complete community website suite. That was always the one thing that bothered me about IPB. It's pretty close to that now with chat and gallery being added to forum, but sometimes everything being based through the forum is not the most appealing way. It would be cool if Invision had something similar to this. http://www.phpizabi.net/?L=cms.infos.showcase Ofcourse it wouldn't be exactly like this, but it would nice to have a whole package that makes it seem like the whole site is integrated not the main site and the forum being two different sites. Then each section:main page, chat, forum, gallery, etc could be a module that…

Reporting System
by Guest TestingSomething- 2 replies
- 1.7k views
I have asked for this on modification sites before, but someone said it should be a feature Invision itself already has and to suggest here that you consider adding it on a future release. A big problem with the reporting system is people changing a post to get away with whatever they did wrong. There should be a feature which freezes any reported post from editing until a mod responds to the reporting and unfreezes it. Then of course if anyone abused it by reporting a lot of posts, they could be dealt with for it.

[REQ]Unsubscribe from topic/forum
by Guest rct2·com- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
When we receive an email that tells there is a topic or post that we subscribed to, and the email includes a link back to the topic, it would be great if it also included a link back to unsubscribe. The way I would see this happening is that when the subscription is made, some unique hashkey is generated and added to the subscriptions table. When the email is then sent, the link to unsubscribe includes the hashkey to validate the user's request. If, when the user follows the link and they are not logged in, they should be prompted for their password.

FAO IPS Staff

@ IPS Staff Sky Digital have just launched their Sky Interactive websites service through their Sky+ boxes. This is a great oportunity for IPS to expand out and offer another route to supplying forums/website software solutions through digital TV. Would it be possible to code a module that will show the forums in WTVML format so that it can be viewed through the Sky Interactive service??? I have a developer account set up already with Sky Interactive if you are interested in this oportunity. It would greatly benefit my website, as I'm sure would many others including yourselves. Sky currently have something like 7 million Sky+ boxes in houses throughout the UK. P…

allow mods/admin to override PM block/full PM queue
by Guest Exiled- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
IPB has long had a PM block feature -- and for almost as long, an unofficial mod to allow admins/mods to override PM blocks/full PMboxes when needed (in v2.0.x). I haven't tested it in 2.1.x, but since the code changes are relatively minor [yet involve an extra entry in the database] I'd very much like to see this override option "made official" [incorporated in the product], so it is always supported. IMHO: a PM block that allows *members* to overrride communications from *primary IPB customers* [board owners who buy/operate the software] lies in the gray area between feature and bug. I mean, c'mon, ignoring PMs from the mods/admins can *only* make board management…

Allow admin to do massive action on search result

such as move, delete multiple topic from a search. This should be very useful. For example, I want to split a forum into subforum, I will do a search by topic words, then I can easily moved them into a subforum or another forum.

Invision "MySpace"
by Guest gladding- 6 replies
- 2.8k views
Our community sites really take off sometimes, it only makes sense to have a "MySpace" type of feature on InvisionBoards. Something that can connect your blog and profile, you can upload photos, have buddy lists... there is something kind of like this now but nothing that users feel compelled to really fill out their profile. If IPB had this, it would really add a lot to the value of InvisionBoards.

use aspell (or similar) instead of iespell
by Guest Exiled- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
The speckcheck option in the RTE of 2.1.x is very much welcomed, but AFAIK, iespell is limited to MS Internet Explorer. Since you've done the hard part (primary integration), might I suggest that you consider a more compatible spell-checker? Aspell works in Linux and Win32, and I first heard about it from someone who was using it in MacOS X. I've read of it being used on many browsers and other apps (like the GAIM multinetwork chat program) in many (human) languages I am not advocating for that program, specifically. I'm sure there are many other worthy freeware solutions for the well-explored and mature software feature. I simply think that spellcheck is too useful t…

"Anchor" topics as alternative to "Closing" them
by Guest //Nathan- 7 replies
- 2.7k views
<rant>What's the point of having a discussion board where topics are closed? If one feels the need to reply to a closed topic, does one create a new topic and risk pissing off the mod who closed the other one?</rant> I have never liked the idea of closing topics. I believe it takes something away from the concept of a discussion board. Now, I do believe there are uses. For example, to use this board as an example, when someone comes in and wants to know where to download IPB 1.3, obviously that topic is going to be closed. But the other day, a topic got closed for being bumped months later... and I was confused as to why it was closed, just for being ol…

RSS Forum export
by Guest Matt Marshall- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
Just a little idea which would work how IPS have announcements and news discussions in different forums. Because there is so much news, people tend not to reply in the 'News Wire' forum here and instead make a topic in General Chat about it (as a good example). But why not have an "export" function where you can quote the news and post it in a different forum for discussion with your own opinion. Or, alternatively list topics with replies and those with not in a different way. Only a thought. :thumbsup:

I would like to see more criteria on the Search Form such as: - search titles/entire posts - topics containing at least/at most X posts - sort results by: relevancy, title, number of views, thread start date - find posts from: since your last visit, yesterday - find posts from user, posts started by user, threads started by user There should be a RESET FIELDS button also. imo, the IPB search is limited compared to other boards. :whistle:
