Would it be possible to add the online indicator in PMs? It would be nice to know if a person is on when viewing a PM from a member. Opinions? :blink: :D

Merged - default profile fields 1 2
by Guest yorkiemal- 38 replies
- 6k views
Matt what are the possibilities of making all the default elements in the profile form and profile view easier to customise, at present I believe that some of these elements are hard coded and can't be changed either easily or at all with out either a mod or custom change by IPS, it would be much better if all the elements of the profile could be customised/edited and not just custom profile fields.

[user] BBCode
by Guest SGS International- 7 replies
- 2.2k views
A member on my forum suggested a new BBCode. Basically, if you want to write a quick message to a particular user in your post, instead of using a PM, if you need to give a personal comment to that user using these tags like this: <Post content goeth here> [user:4356]Could you possibly fix that downloads bug later?[/user] That's just the way that my member suggested, but I suppose it would be more logical to use the tag like [user=4356] than [user:4356]. I can see it being useful in situations like development, where you want a particular developer to fix a bug, rather than everyone seeing it.

[IPB]Password Suggestion 1 2
by Guest Aaron- 48 replies
- 10.9k views
While making a hotmail account for a friend I saw a feature I think would be neat to have on IPB. On hotmail when you are registering for a free @hotmail.com account when you choose a password underneath the password box is another box that when you enter in your password it tells you if your password is a strong enough password. You can try it out at http://www.hotmail.com you do not have to signup just click the link to signup and and type in a password to test it out :)

Multi-moderation & visitors today
by Guest Alaswad- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
Hello, I have a littile suggestion about Topic Multi-Moderation if there is a time.. I suggest to add poster name as a variable we can use it in the post added, and ability to send PM to user posted topic. Ability to add custom post the moderator can add it while moderating on forum. Another suggestion about the mod the visitors who logged today, all forums installed that mod, they display the members they logged into forum today, and reset every day, why you don't add it as a feature in IPB? If you ask the members, they all will say: Yes, its good. Thanks.

Permission Mask Deletion

- 1.6k views
Don't seem to have the neccesary permissions to post a bug report. To be moved to correct forum svp On the IPB 2.1 Beta 4 Forums, in the ACP, you can only delete a permission mask if it IS in use. This is inverse to what it should be, doesnt make sense.

Warnings System Forum
by Guest krocheck- 1 reply
- 1.9k views
My staff has a forum called "Warning and Bannings". They make a topic whenever they warn a member so that the staff can keep track of what warnings have been issued and to discuss if furthur action should be taken. Whenever an action is taken in the warn panel, I would like to see a topic in a specified forum with an initial post describing the action taken and any aubsequent data regarding the warning/mod-queue/ban. Now, I understand that no one would want a topic for each action, so a topic could be created for each member for the first action, and then a reply made automatically (by the member taking action). In each auto-post, an update of the member's stats reg…

Poll Permissions
by Guest ossipetz- 3 replies

helloooooooooo :charles: i know this has been discussed before - but i thought i just bring this back to life :-" (since i cant find the old topic) i just tested this with 2.1 beta 4 (nice and smooth installation, no complains, looks great!) members can vote in forums where they can not start/reply to topics. since polls can be 'bumped' this is annoying if you want only a special group to be able to vote in polls in certain forums (imagine a moderators forum where members can't reply to topics but still can vote in the topics :unsure: ) so an additional permission setting would be nice :) rock on :thumbsup:

for the profile card if a member has no photo an image saying no photo goes in place. i think it would be good if an image went in place of avatar if no avatar was chosen :thumbsup: cause on my forums i have a dotted box around each profile field, andso if no avatar is chosen! you just get an empty box which as its setas 0% width to fit the avatar, it basically just looks like a littlewhite box about 3px big! this would solve it :ermm: cheers

[2.1B4] COPPA
by Guest Wolfie- 12 replies

Could a cookie be set for those that cancel out and then try to go back to try to 'get around' the restriction? :) :devil: I love the pop up that tells the member that they have to either complete or cancel :devil:, but I'm not sure if that still meets the requirements (I'll be contacting CARU to see though, be cool if it met with their approval).

Turn the profile card into a vCard.
by Guest Quillz- 3 replies
- 1.8k views
One thing I like about vBulletin is how it's profile card feature can be downloaded as a vCard, or a file that automatically gets associated with the Address Book in Windows. Now, I know not everyone uses Windows, but a large majority due, and it's quite useful to have the downloaded cards collected as an Address Book entry. Currently, with IPB, they are just saved as HTML text documents. I think it would be nice if they were saved as vCards. (Since it's IPB, maybe call it an iCard?)

Entering a poll without a post
by Guest escout- 2 replies
- 1.6k views
When creating a new poll, but forgetting to enter any post text, it goes to a new screen: Clicking back to go and fix it, and you've lost all your poll questions and answers! It would be better if it worked the same as adding a poll but not putting a topic title; it prompts then & there to enter a topic title without losing the poll options. (btw, I'm using the wysiwyg editor; no idea if that has any bearing on it)

Quick edit, empty the post
by Guest escout- 1 reply
- 1.6k views
OK, so this is pretty unlikely, except from noobs trying to "delete" their post perhaps? If you quick edit a post, delete all the post text, then "complete edit" and "cancel edit" don't work. Perhaps it could prompt to just delete the topic/post instead (if the user is allowed to do that)

Topic views caching - confuses almost everyone
by Guest nicoo- 4 replies
- 2k views
The new feature in IPB 2.1 to cache the topic-views may be a good thing, but as long as it stays at 0, most people are confused, particularly if there are already answers in the thread. Here on IPS-Board it is ok, as most people either read that this is a feautre in the IPB_2.1 Road Map or somewhere it is explained in some threads. But on non IPB-related content forums, this won't/may not be discussed, and it really appears to be a bug if you are not aware of this feauture. I think writing "-" instead of "0" could help not to confuse the users as much as their are now. I am trying to find a better solution, but don't find anything better. Or perhaps "u" as ab…

Put thread title in email
by Guest Gary King- 2 replies
- 1.8k views
I would suggest putting the thread title in subscription email subject lines, so people know which one of their threads were updated without opening the email. Also, it would be good especially for Gmail, since right now, without any differences in the thread title, the subscription emails are ALL in one email, so a person would have to sift through every single email to see which one they haven't checked yet.

ipb_templates.xml template order
by Guest K. T. Walrus- 2 replies
- 2.9k views
Whenever there is a new release of IPB, I "diff -r" the files against the previous release to see what has changed. For the most part, this works well, but the ipb_templates.xml seems to be produced with the template XML unordered. So, there are always tons of differences reported even though only a few templates are actually changed. Could you please consider apply some ORDER to the template bits in ipb_templates.xml when you produce this file? Ordering by group_name, func_name should do the trick. As it is now, I have to install the board in a test installation and then diff the skin_cache files which are ordered. It would also be a good idea if all the othe…

Blind Moderator = impossible
by Guest cowudders- 21 replies
- 5.8k views
Hi, I have a blind user of my forum who I have made a moderator. However, she is unable to do anything as the little tick boxes in the posts are all images, so she cannot tell if the boxes are checked or not. IMHO the images serve no real purpose, and it would actually be clearer to sighted users too. A simple HTML based check box, something like: would be all that is required. This would make it very clear which topics were selected, and would be compatible with computer speech sythesis software, thus enabling blind users to be moderators too. This is very annoying, and she feels alienated by this. This should be a really simple piece of code to fix.
