Title/Desc on same line in topic view
by Guest //Nathan- 9 replies
- 2.3k views
I was just thinking, one thing that has always annoyed me with IPB is how there is a Topic Title and Topic Description. That alone I got used to quick enough, but what bugs me is how it looks good when you're writing the topic (one above the other), looks good in the forum view (same), but then you go into the topic and they're on the same line, separated by a comma. Sometimes it looks OK, but sometimes it looks like crap, especially when punctuation is involved. I'm sure it's a matter of taste, but my suggestion is that the title/description bar be double-height, maintain the one-above-the-other order (for the sake of uniformity if nothing else), and maybe have some …

Calender
by Guest mprowler- 0 replies

It'd be great if there was a function where I could add multiple calender events at once, just basically doing everything like the current system, except having multiple sets of the add new event page on a single page, and saving events to different dates with a single save, that'll save a lot of time for me as I need to add all school events to the calender.

Users online - how long ago instead of time

In the users online section of the board statistics, at the bottom of the forum, I would like it if when you hovered your mouse over a name instead of saying the time they were last active, it displayed how man minutes ago (like it does with topics in forums) :D Sorry if it has been suggested already :unsure:

Posts shown user preference
by Guest George the Flea- 1 reply
- 1.7k views
I'm a user from an Invision board (here), and the board admin there told me that he didn't know of any way to set default "view topics from past xx days" settings. I had expected there to be an option within a user's preferences to set a default value (be it 30 days, 60 days, all, whatever), but this turns out not to be available. However, poking around your boards here, I noticed that some forums default to 30 days (like all of the forums on the board I frequent), and at least one of them defaulted to "Show all." If there is a way to set different defaults for different forums, I would love to tell the board administrator since that would be a good quick fix. I wou…

Optional IP Login Check
by Guest scylla- 1 reply
- 1.5k views
I think that this should be a feature available to all users. For example, an admin creates the board at home, but when he/she gets to work, it wont allow login to admin cp. But turning this off would allow them to login no matter whey they are. I think that it should be optional for situations just like this. OR Incase someone only uses their homecomputer & wants added security, they can turn it on if they are afraid of someone hacking their account or whatever.

Links might not be removed on topic delete
by Guest K. T. Walrus- 1 reply
- 1.5k views
The mechanism for looking up links when deleting a topic could result in broken links remaining. The implementation stores "tid&fid" in the moved_to field of the topic link and then when deleting a topic, the topics are searched for any links that have "tid&fid" in them where the fid is the forum_id for the forum containing the real topic. Problem is that the real topic could have been moved twice or more leaving multiple links. The implementation will only find the last link. You probably should use LIKE to find all the links for the real topic as if you allow deleting a topic leaving a dead link, anyone that clicks on the old link will get a "broken" e…

Missing "leave link" option in multi-topic move
by Guest K. T. Walrus- 1 reply
- 1.9k views
The multi-topic move form is missing the option to "leave links". I suppose this is due to having to handle "links" to "links" if one of the topics that is selected to move is itself a link. But, one can create a MM action that can move multiple topics leaving a link for each topic. Such a MM action doesn't do anything to handle moving a link, you just end up with a link to a link to a topic. You should probably test if the topic you are moving is a link and if so, check that the real topic is not in the destination forum already or that there is not already a link to the real topic in the destination forum. If either is the case, the link that is being moved…

Chat features
by Guest Wolfie- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
a couple of small but potentially useful live-chat related features.. 1. Invite to chat - when looking at someones profile, if you are in the chat, you can click a link (maybe with a pop up to confirm it) to invite the person to the chat, so it'd be like an automated PM that would just notify the person that they've been invited to chat. 2. "In chat" - when viewing topics, if a person is in the chat, perhaps a macro (like the online/offline one) that would tell if someone is in the chat or not. Maybe even using and changing the online/offline status one itself, to be "offline/online/in chat"

"Add a copy of this message to my sent items folder" Auto-Se
by Guest KyanVrezpor- 6 replies
- 2.4k views
I don't know if this is planned for 2.1, but one thing my members found irritating was the necessity to check the: "Add a copy of this message to my sent items folder" box every time they sent a message if they wanted to save it. In the old versions of IPB, you could set it to be automatically checked. Could you either restore this functionality, or have a function in the ACP which makes it so that sent messages are always saved in the Sent Items folder? Thanks :)

New "New Topic" Button Request
by Guest • Jay •- 11 replies
- 3.4k views
After taking on board some information posted by other customers, I have modified my request so that it no longer fits in the same topic. You can find the original topic here If a member or guest does not have correct permissions to start a new topic or reply in a topic (where the topic is still technically open to those with permissions), I think it'd be good if the new topic or reply buttons were grayed out, but still provided the current error page. That way, people familiar with the forum software would know that the grayed out button means they aren't allowed to post, and those who are not still receive the error message so they aren't left wondering why they ca…

How about being able to log in on another website which is protected via ssl? With this scenario there would not be any clear text password sending via the internet.

Password Request - Email
by Guest StephenH- 6 replies
- 2.2k views
Why not allow users to request their "lost password" by either entering their username (at it currently is), or their email address associated with the account. I have had the issue on forums before, where I cannot remember my username, and they do not have the "enter your email address" for password recovery, and I am stuck. I think this would be a useful feature myself... Feedback appreciated.
