Programming the time for post
by Guest Telemacus- 1 reply
- 1.7k views
I'd really love to have the ability to program a post so that it only appears on-line at a given time. There are several reasons why this would be so useful, but I'm mainly thinking about preventing "blank periods" of activity in the forum. For example, imagine it's monday morning and you've got a couple of hours to write 6-7 posts on your forum. So, you go ahead and you write them and they all go on-line. People read them, some reply to them and you even notice that the number of visitors on that particular Monday has increased. Very nice. However, over the next couple of days there's nothing new on your forum, nobody has started a new topic, just replied to a cou…

Invision board is a much cleaner and reliable board than vbulletin - but there is one vb feature which would be nice http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/what_is_ajax This allows people to add replies without refreshing Any chance this could ever be implemented in IPB?

Couple of ideas
by Guest Dlf- 1 reply

Custom User groups in ACP - This would show custom made user groups of the ACP. Those that an admin made, apart from the default made. I think this would be nice to differ between default made and custom made (though yes I do know of the descriptiion at the top of the screen). Public (Joinable) custom user groups - Unless i'm mistaken Matt said a feature of 3.0(.0) would be similar to one of PHPBB, cutom joinable user groups. This would show what groups people can join. Days Registered - This would make it so anyone has been on the board (had an account) for x days can move to {group} Posts - Like above, but this time you need x amount of posts to join [yes I know it's a…

Restrict username chars as option in ACP
by Guest Exiled- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
I'll be upgrading my test board from 2.0.4 to 2.1.3 tomorrow, so I apologize in advance if I missed this in one of the changelogs. I'm sure you are already aware of Den Watts simple character checking mod, but there's nothing in that thread to indicate that it has been incorporated. If not, it's probably because you have so much else to work on, and probably don't see it as a something your customers desire. Some customers might not even *like* it. I daresay they'll want it soon, though. I've had members with Greek letters in their names. Even if you manually review/authorize each new account, would you see the difference between PeterPiper and ΡeterΡiper? (Cut and…

Oracle XE
by Guest mcretan- 1 reply
- 1.9k views
As an IPB Oracle customer, I just thought that you guys might also be interested to know that Oracle will (in the next month or so) be releasing a free version (including royalty free distribution) called Oracle XE. Its limited to a 4GB database size (that's a lot of posts), 1GB of memory and 1 CPU. From what I have read about the inclusions/exclusions IPB should run on it without modification (Oracle Text - aka CTX is included). I'm not wanting to start the whole oracle vs mssql vs mysql thing again, but for those of your customers comfortable with Oracle - it might be a good way to go :whistle: Cheers, Mike

Usergroup Color Applies everywhere
by Guest pspzones- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
I think it would be useful there was an Admin CP option to allowed you to choose whether or not you want the Usergroup color of a member to apply globally and not just to the Active User's list. So basically you can choose whether someone who is red on the active users list to appear red everytime their name is shown on the board. I think this would make the board look better and I hope you consider adding this feature to the next update. Does anyone else think this is a good idea? :)

Hi I got a problem
by Guest beaten- 1 reply

Hi I hope this is where the invision power service staff is. I brought a yearly invision power license costing $69.95 which is about 41 GBP. Then we recieved an invoice for it and paid for. When we checked our bank account we were charged twice the amount with exact same price and item description so now we were charged 80 GBP. And further invoices with different I.Ds were sent to us by e-mail. So now not only have you sent us more invoices, we also been charged twice the amount we were suppose to pay. Okay it might have been our mistake for accidentally chosen a yearly license twice but we checked if we had but no, total invoices was 1 and that costed $69.95 which has b…

Viewing all users with a warn level?
by Guest dyelton- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
I would like to have a feature where moderators can view all users with a warn level, maybe allow the way to sort the data such as A-Z or by how high the warn level. This would be useful as we like to decrease a person's warn level over time based on good conduct but it's hard remembering so many users. We currently have around 6500 users and growing hundreds every month so it becomes a huge hassle.

Double Posting
by Guest Stuart Elliott- 0 replies
- 1.7k views
Currently, if someone posts twice in a short space of time, the forum merges the posts into one, not something I have a problem with at all. However, there are times of "lag" when someone will double post, and you end up with something akin to: Would it be possible to implement a check at the merge point to compare the two posts to see theres duplication, and cancel the second post ?

"click and hold"
by Guest PLCforum- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
I've a problem, or a little mistake to submit to the developers: I've see (and use, it's a very useful function) the title of topic changeable by "click and hold" on left mouse button on the same topic words, without let in in the discussion than select the properly function to modify the topic title, now the bug or the "mistake" I've see that this function is avaiable only inside forums, and it isn't avaible outside, in other words: when I ask the lestest topics of 24 or more hours the "click 'n' hold" function isn't avaible, but the same is avaiable when I let in in one forum. thanks

.ics iCal Sunbird Calendar support from Calendar
by Guest TerroX- 6 replies

I would like to be able to use an .ics link to view the events in the calendar of this forum :-) Then members can edit events in the .ics calendar by logging in to the forum. Letting remote users edit the .ics file via FTP is not needed, that would be a little bit crazy. Dunno wtf I mean? Get this free calendar program http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/s...screenshot.html and it allows you to use multiple data files and remote files from the net.

[C]Banned Members show up in Birthdays
by Guest Lemon Head- 8 replies
- 2.4k views
Hi, I have a banned Member in my Banned Member Group and this person is listed in the Ban Filters. Today, IPB v2.0.3 displayed the Member as celebrating their Birthday. I've now deleted this Member but the Board still showed the Member in the Birtdays section. I've since updated Birthday's in Cache Control. Its now correct. I think the Birthday facility should perhaps check the Banned Filters before displaying the Birthdays of banned Members, particulary if they are in a Banned Member Group. As I say, more of an issue than a bug. Thanks!

Search option
by Guest shnitsel- 3 replies

How about making a good (working) forum search option on your boards? because the current (google) search option doesn't really help, i mean, everytime i try searching for something, i get 0 answers, i mean, i tried things that are all over the board, but i still get 0 answers, which can be really annoying if the forum is huge & you're looking for a certain topic, you know? so, how about a few comments? what do you think?

Email Notification should use USERS language set
by Guest ungoy- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
1. English is the default language set on my board. 2. Users are allowed to select their individual language set. 3. If they do so, they will still receive ENGLISH Email Notifications [New PM...] because the script works currently with the DEFAULT language file (this is what bfarber told me). So my suggestion is: Please modify the script that way that it will use the individual USERS language set and NOT the language set wich is set by DEFAULT.
