what's your dream IPB feature?

[LiquidFractal]

Self-explanatory: what would be your personal dream feature for IPB?  What one thing would you love to see the most?  Time to be selfish....

For me, as I mentioned elsewhere, I would love to see a native PDF annotation system, where individuals and/or groups could comment (colour-coded of course) on PDF documents, track changes, versions, etc.  Naturally, it would be accompanied by a badass PDF viewer/reader, which could be embedded in forums posts, articles, etc (and while I'm dreaming, why not extend it to .djvu documents?).

In addition to what you mentioned.... I would like to see video files act the same as they do on Facebook and Twitter.

We live in a video age now.

This already exists.

 

I want group tagging (and club tagging now that it's coming)

Hmmm.. interesting... when did the ability to directly upload videos to the gallery occur?  Might be worth me getting if it finally can do that.

[Morrigan]

In the 3.0 version of gallery.

Note the file types:

What I'd really like was the ability to upload the videos into the Pages app... would be nice for video reviews.

You can do that too @Tracy Perry however if you are looking for cross application I feel it's redundant. Just create a media database.

So it will upload and display the video same as the gallery will?  If so, time to start playing again!

What I'm targeting is an actual page with input capability but the add-on ability of attaching (inline) the video.

[Morrigan]

If you set it up right, yes. It's all in how it's developed. I know that I could develop something similar if I put my mind to it.

new looks for IP Board - themes... every time IPS upgrades... you need new version for theme...

something very easy and simple way- which can make look the community different from others ....

Custom moderation. I semi-regularly have to move threads to an 'archive'. It'd be nice to have a custom moderation option that unpins a thread & automatically moves it to my archive forum.

I believe the rules app can do that for you?

It should LINK a video and not waste space by storaging them, something like Video System from Mike John.

Not everyone wants to store their videos on another site... in fact, some videos may not even meet the TOS of the service.  Classic case would be some of the adult type vids.  The option to store them locally is a benefit, especially with storage space as cheap as it is.

The problem is that the image upload with mobile phone does not work (this works with a desktop). IPB Staff does not want to try to fix it because it is not their code ...

You can do this with saved actions in the Forums app.

An easy way to build different pages like "Visual Composer" in Wordpress. I´m not a fan in Wordpress, but I like Visual Composer very much.

For contributors to downloads to have a URL leading to a show case of their own products.

This would allow contributors to share the URL around the web promoting themselves and thereby promoting your site. 

Contributors OWN Store front.

 

[Ohio Guns]

To have users be able to make use of the store. IE their own virtual store fronts.

I like we can combine multiple widget in one (certainly widgets in same category and like drag and drop), as a tabbed widget. Also ability to put widgets in ACP's Menu manager.
