IPS Marketplace suggestion

[Eduardo Bautista]

There needs to be an option for users to confirm what version of IP.Board a certain plugin, skin, etc. works on. Kind of like how wordpress does it.

Well not all of the files have them. Plus, we should be able to have an option to display ONLY the files that will work with out version.

That's because authors may not have supplied it. Go nag them to include it. :thumbsup:

I agree the system could be made much more useful than having authors enter an arbitrary string.

Ask for the minimum/maximum version data we're required to supply with hooks anyway. If done properly, that'll be even more useful when the Marketplace App comes to fruition.

Part of the problem with even that method is that it only asks for the version of IP.Board the resource is compatible with, some resources need to indicate they are only compatible with certain versions of other apps too.

True, but that's not something the current system accommodates either.
