Staff Notes in Topics
by Guest krocheck- 10 replies
- 2.8k views
The "Staff Notes in Topics" mod that I made was very well received by many board owners, so I would like to request that it be added in IPB 3.0. Please see the link below for more details on the mod. http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/4450 Keith

Unique Reputation System
by Guest • Jay •- 1 reply

Since there are so many people that would like to recognize posters who contribute (or discourage negative behavior), I have developed an idea that Matt may wish to consider adding to IPB to allow forum leaders to recognize contributing members. In this system, only forum leadership (mods & admins) would be able to modify a user's "reputation", so there would not be any "vote wars" by members. Place a + or - button somewhere in the post (or member's profile) that board leaders (group setting in the Admin CP to allow or disallow moderators to rate members) could use. If the board leaders feel that the member's posts contribute to the board, they can click the "+…

Remove the "Go" button to the right of the Forum Jump.
by Guest Quillz- 13 replies
- 3.6k views
I've noticed that the Forum Jump automatically activates itself. For example, if you use it to quickly jump to another forum, you're automatically re-directed, and thus, have no need to use the "Go" button to the right. Why not just remove it entirely?

please this is an important feature add search member based on second group because a hacker can hack admin account pass then change his own account second group to admin so even if the admin change his pass the hacker will still have access to admin panel unless admin check all members second group one by one :(

Ban a user from posting, during certain times
by Guest Petrescu- 3 replies
- 2.2k views
Had another legendary brainwave. Instead of just the option to restrict a member from posting.. how about adding another option next to that where you can choose certain times to restrict the member from posting. For example - between 12am - 6am. This could come in use when no moderators are online and the member is known to be up late posting crap! (In OUR CASE!!) Hope this will be considered.

Reputation Points

I just went to a vBulletin forum and they have reputation points. I love that idea. I was just wondering if Invision Power board has this? or something like this. I haven't got a forum yet because I'm getting one this christmas. How much does it cost for the forum alone?

url rewriting?
by Guest Shearer- 9 replies
- 3.8k views
is it possible we could get an option to have url rewriting as a feature for the new release. I know it works better on search engines and would omit a fair amount of the &'s and ?'s in urls. I use it frequently in my work, and find it very useful.

Pretty much the same as vbulletins. When you are viewing the topic list. You can roll your mouse over the name of the topic and it shows (in a description box) most of the first post that was made in the topic.

When you click on a member name, I would like it ito have the Profile Options dropdown menu that is in the members profile, with the same options but with View Profile at the top and a few added underneath, e.g View Profile Find member's posts Find member's topics Ignore User Member's Display Name History Add to contact list Send PM E-Mail member View Card View Blog View Gallery What do you think? Some options could be ommited if too much.

Package Components

Well the "Export Component XML.." in 2.1 seems to only export the settings... What would be cool is if it included the corisponding files from the components_* folder. Then also include a SQL dump file to execute, which a modder could put in new templates, settings, etc...

Query idea

7 for loading the board index? Wow! Wondering though... if a member minimized the board stats would it be worth making it not run those queries for those hidden items but run if they maximized/expanded it?

Subcategories and disable "Subforums:" listing 1 2
by Guest Hyb- 33 replies
- 12.1k views
Hey, I wonder if its possible to suggest a new feature to be included in a future release of IPB that would make my use of the software and layout of my forum so much user friendly. I myself have a pretty large community and I wish to reorganise it so that a member can click, for example, "Forum 1" and it will take them to that forum but that forum will look like a index forum with a new "subcategories" feature. Vbulletin has this feature, yet i dislike vbulletin for its terrible admin control panel, however if i may use an example to show what i mean, i guess it would help you to understand if i sound like i'm speaking crap (sorry but lucasforum is the best example …

Quick editing posts with Smilies
by Guest K. T. Walrus- 1 reply
- 1.4k views
Any chance you could translate the Smilies in quick edit so the smilie image shows instead of the text string for the smilies? I guess I'm asking for more RTE features in the quick edit box if the user is using the RTE. Now that I think about this, I guess this is a feature request when I thought it was a defect when I first posted this.

Merge Members
by Guest krocheck- 18 replies

There are many times where I find that a member has registered twice. I never end up deleteing the non-used account because that member has made a few posts in it. I would like to be able to merge posts from multiple users to one and the delete the left-over (empty) accounts. Keith

Interactive 'converge'
by Guest Wolfie- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
Maybe it's already possible, if so, please tell me how :lol: Ok, taking the idea of converge but to a slightly higher level. For log-in authentification, be able to specify an external (interactive) method. Put in the URL of the external site's authentification URL, then a field for a user ID & password. Then when it gets used, the external site, upon getting activated on the url with the information, returns back limited information on the account (if both the system id/pass and the user id/pass match). Sort of the way it's done now, except that the external site does the database work so that it's password & stuff is kept localized instead of having to …

Few more ideas
by Guest Dlf- 2 replies
- 2.1k views
I don't know how in the word, but I have WAY to many ideas in my head about features Brandon (IF) or Matt (IPB) could implemete into the system. :P ON TO THE REQUESTS i SAY :P [*]1, IP (internet_protocol) "ban" (for ACP) - Does what it sounds like, it allows the ROOT admin to IP ban people from access of the ACP. Yes I know of what if there IP change to that of one of the one's you banned; could it possibly be (addded}made) where the forum checks the IP of the admin (if he's logged into the forum) and just "waviers" the IP ban (just for him) if his IP is in the range of the banned IP. [*]2. ROOT, no ban - (sorry if already added/comming). This would mak…

PHP Info
by Guest cooldude7273- 10 replies
- 3.9k views
If you open up a 2.0.x admin cp, there is a "PHP Info" choice at the top left. This little page has been very helpful with debugging php issues I have had. I would really like to see it return in 2.1. There is plenty of space for a little "(Info)" option next to the PHP version in the 2.1 acp. Please consider it. Thanks! :thumbsup:

AOL Hometown
by Guest Wolfie- 9 replies

Either a separate product that can easily integrate with the forums, or an add-on module for use with the forums. Preferrably one that can be separate but made to use the forums database (if one is available), that way (as an example), a subdomain like "members.dacity.com/Wolfie" could be used, or optionally, "forums.dacity.com/index.php?automodule=pages&uid=1" (or automodule=pages&uid=Wolfie) AdminCP: Option to turn it on/off/auto (auto would turn it off if the board is turned off for any reason) Allowed content (.mov/.jpg/.mid/java/etc) layout/skin (so the admin can have their site shown with the page) available layouts the members may use (like predefined ta…

Alternate to loading global cache's
by Guest Luke- 0 replies
- 1.6k views
For those of you that are aware of my moderator center, atleast the new version, it requires that it's cache is part of the global cache's. In index.php there is a line which lists and combines cache names to load. To include my cache as a global cache, its name has to be included... Or so I thought. Here's the idea: Add a column to the cache_store table called "cs_global". If a cache has this set to "1" then it means it must be loaded as a global cache, and if set to "0" it means it will be loaded when the module loaded (as normal). So then when IPB loads the global cache's you can have it load all the cache's with that value set to 1, rather than by the specific names…

PHP BBCODE Highlighting.
by Guest Jamie Chung- 0 replies
- 1.5k views
I don't know if this has been mentioned already, but it would be pretty nice to have a php highlighter in bbcode format. It would come in handy since it highlights also indead of using the plain code color. Could this be implimented in 2.1? :-" For example: <?php echo "HIGHLIGHT ME"; ?> P.S. Where is the code button anyways? :shifty: Testing to make sure it still exists
