Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
Breadfan Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Wouldn't it be nice if we had vBulletin type groups for IPB? For example, I want to create a "Croatian IPB fans" group and invite people join it. If I'm not mistaken, IPB doesn't have anything like that nor am I aware of mods supporting this?
iozay Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 You mean the ability to add "Group Leaders" to groups? :) Defenitly a nice idea, Would be handy for deligation of small forums without giving someone Administrator privelages.
Breadfan Posted January 28, 2011 Author Posted January 28, 2011 ^^No, but to simply have an option to create a community group like "Fishermans" or ... "F1 fans" or whatever and invite people to join that specific group. Would also be nice to be able to choose that group for mass PMs.

Would also be nice to be able to choose that group for mass PMs. I think that can be done and i will be trailing it soon, but with nexus you can create groups / upgrades / downgrades so if that is right you can have a person select an upgrade for example (make them $0) and once selected it would add them to a user group this would in effect create what you wanted and would allow for the email option to select that group as well.
Breadfan Posted January 28, 2011 Author Posted January 28, 2011 ^^I don't think having to buy an additional application (IP.Nexus) in order to have that is a solution. It's like having to buy, erm, IP.Blog in order to have status updates.
Hatsu Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 It's not the same. I think Breadfan meant the Social Group feature in vBulletin? Am I right?
paw Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 all good only putting an option out there, sorry it was a dud one at that, cheers
