[2.1] RSS Import Suggestion

June 24, 2005 by Guest .Jack

I think it would be a very good idea if in IPB 2.1 you could set the Import Poster's Name to whatever the value of the author tag is for that item. This would be very useful for people who plan to automatically import news from their front pages so that the post can be discussed on the forums.. Thanks :)

Another suggestion, not sure if this is possible already but how about allowing group icons as well as personal avatars to be displayed? I would love my Moderators to have a Group Icon/Avatar show up above or below their personal avatar.

it would be better if ipb can have a better template designing.because the posting form and private messages form looks so congested.they should be aligned nicely.i use vb and their designs are incredible.it is a seroius defect of ibp.Everbody knows that a website can perform well on www only if it has two thing. (1)good content (2)good design. ipb should take some guidance from vb and should invest some time in designing and aligning its templates.Even phpbb templates looks much decent.it would be better if the code is xhtml compliant. thanks.

IPS - Friend Groups

It would be very pleasant to have this new feature in IPB/IPS-kernel, and other IPS-products could make use of it: Friends Groups This would be an extension of a feautre that ICBlog currently has (being able to allow certain users to view your blog). As most people have more than one friends groups (university, old school friends, family, work, ...) it would be nice to allow for example blog entries or galleries to certain friends groups and not just users. This would be usefull and very fast to use. So you could...: Make for example some pictures of your last party available to only these university-friends (group1) and other pictures of your wedding only av…

Hide individual forums.

I don't know how useful this suggestion will be, but I'd like to bring it up, anyway... You know how it's possible to hide individual categories? Well, I think it would be cool if individual forums inside categories could be hidden. For example, on the IPS Company Forums, some forums are completely inaccessible, depending on what services have been paid for/haven't paid for. Since those forums are completely useless to me, they take up screen space. It'd be cool to be able to hide it just like a category; only the name of the forum would be displayed; there would be no description, no topics, replies, views, etc. Just a thought.

Use <title> tags by default with the image macros.

June 23, 2005 by Guest Quillz
0 replies

1.5k views
One thing that annoys me about IPB 2.x is that it still assumes everyone uses IE (:x). In other words, with the image macros, and the images in general, they are still using outdated <alt> tags, which only work in IE. They should be using <title> tags, which are cross-browser, meaning they work in IE, Firefox, Opera, etc. Now, I know I can set up <title> tags by editing the image macros, but the point is, I shouldn't have to. This fairly simple procedure should have already been set up. Is there any chance this will happen in 2.1? Or, can it be expected in IPB 3? And I don't mean to come off unappreciative of IPB in any way. This is just something I t…

Warning Extension(3), Custom

June 22, 2005 by Guest Luke

A way for modders to easily add-on to the warning panel would be a nice option to have. For example I have a player profile section and some members abuse the section. I would like to be able to easily add something to the warning panel to disable their use for X amount of time. Maybe be able to add something totally custom where a moderator can add and subtract how much cash a member has in a shop/points system. And with this custom ability, make each thing a custom external module not part of the original code. Also I would like to see an option to adjust members "punishments" without moving the warning level. Related suggestions: Warning Extension(1) for PMs Warni…

Warning Extension for PM's

I would like to see an option in the warning section for a mod to revoke PM privileges for X amount of time. Currently I have a group identical to the members group with no pm abilities, but only the Admin's can move a member so it would be nice if a mod could do this and for a set amount of time. Also when PM abilities are revoked they can recieve PM's they just cant send them (but they can send them to super mod's and mod's ONLY with the warning control ability). This would be a very good add on... Would make controlling PM's easier, especially since we get complaints about some members spamming inboxes of other members. And the current method is a strait for me as an…

The appearance of the RSS feeding of topics means now that viewing new posts tends to be 'polluted' by loads of RSS-generated topics. Perhaps these can be switched on/off as a UserCP option when viewing active topics and new posts? Even better would be an option to specify EXACTLY which forums you want to know about when using these links.

Personal macros

I have an idea, take the idea of Custom BBCode one step further. Allow each user to create as many "personal macros" as they want. Kind of like topic multi-moderation, when a newb asks for help with IPB and the mods always post the same reply. If you activated this, you'd have a drop-down menu to insert your personal macros. These could be lines of text, favorite URLs (the URL to Firefox for example), or images. Regarding images, this would allow users to use favorite smilies from other boards. Or maybe you have a picture of your computer you built and you post the pic every now and then.

For some Javascript applications I need to put some code in the <body> tag, but only on some of the pages. Matt, could you therefore implement the <body>-tag as you have done with the <% TITLE %> so that it is possible to add some code in there, dependent on which page is beeing called.

Allow validating members to change their email address. Sometimes members may use an email address they thought was active, but no longer isnt. Happens a lot with free emails. Maybe have a time restriction where a member can only change their email once per X hours. Plus allow moderators to change a members email without validation.

Useful if you want to have a group disucssion between the offender and the moderators in a topic. Plus when a member is under moderator preview they can see/edit their post. Some members get confused when the dont see their post and double/tripple post. Also it can be used for a "private question" forum if a member wants to ask a question (and not be seen by other members) and any moderator can reply, in conjunction with the feature that automatically put's topics on mod preview.

Very useful if you have a player profile section and want members to be able to insert their stats in the signature. Or maybe you want a random quote in your signature every time someone views it.
