    Yup, it shows the option but you're unable to choose your birth date.
    Never mind, I downloaded the old version.

    @Vanucci Forgot I did some testing for you last night so signed back in. Moving KS to the top seems to fix it, or at least makes the link appear. I didn't want to actually promote a post to article to test; I'll leave that for you to try.
    However, I do have more information for you on your slow site problem. It's fine for regular users, really, but if you are an admin the front (main site) is really sluggish. So whatever you have on the front end that is affecting what admins do/see; I'd start there.
    BTW, left KS at the top of the plugin list but did disable it once again. Just turn it back on when you are ready.

    MichaelR never responded to my request for access so I've never been able to help with the usermenu bits (it has to be ipsfocus theme related though and probably an easy fix)
    As for install on the live server I'd love to take a look. Both dev install and live please, There are a handful of people who have problems installing this when it comes to the language file but i still haven't got traction from IPS on getting this solved (long story short the plugin installation routine is apparently less robust than the application installer routine and on certain servers or ??? large language files in plugins break the installer - but since it is "plugin related" getting someone to look at this is nearly impossible)

    Sorry, won't happen. At least not with KS.
    Part of the philosophy behind IPS 4x is that everything generated by a member is considered "content".
    In the core.members database, there is a column for member_posts. Although it sounds like it is just for forum posts it is not. It is for all content be it forum posts, topic started, download submitted, gallery images submitted, etc. That's what is being called and displayed when you see a user's content count. 
    Can you break out a user's forum posts count separately? Of course. But, you have to actually do database work and probably a bunch of separate hooks to get and store just that information. It's not that hard - if all you wanted was forum topics started and forum posts made you would just hook onto the submit bit and then count and store from there. More messy when you try to keep accurate stats as you have to hook onto the delete bits as well. I suppose you could find where the content count is being calculated and hook there, targeting whether the call is coming from forums or not and writing/deleting based on that. Might make this a lot more manageable.
    If you want some more term confusion....

    Where it says 1,075 posts? That's actually content count, not just forum posts. On this site that will include my files in the marketplace, all my topics started and forum posts, probably all my bug reports and responses there as well. Posts = Content and vice versa.
    So yeah, if you want that stat back on its own it will be some work to accomplish.

    More robuster (fixed) Can Edit First Posts code. Report Post link in posts now a toggle to place in Options menu. Probably works. Yell at me if it doesn't.

    Meh, long day.
    Anyways, the edit first posts code is still a bit wonky. Thanks to @Bill Edwards for pointing out a few flaws. I *think* I have them straightened out now, however, I never for a moment took into account the jQuery mod utility for when you are in forum view looking at a table of topics. You can click and hold on a title to live edit the title. With KS active (at all no matter first posts settings) this function breaks. At least as far as I can tell. This is a function of me trashing the initial edit first posts code and going a more brute force direction. No matter, I haven't looked to see what I am breaking with that so it has to wait a bit to get fixed (crosses fingers he can...) 
    KS 5 out either later tonight or in the morning to fix these things. Also includes a full toggle option to move or not move the reports link in a post to the options menu (right now it just moves it). Won't get a chance to address conflicts with other plugins that link into the posts menu area just yet. Soon.
    EDIT: It's ready to go. The click/hold thing is vexing. It's working in-dev, but not live. Either way, gonna sleep on this and then post it up in the morning. Figure after 10am Eastern USA.
    Sleep...
    EDIT: After you install the new version (when released), if you get an error page when viewing a forum (topics list) just refresh to clear your cache of the old plugin code. Also, confirmed, if you have something that links into the quote, edit, options menu area of a post, make sure you drag that plugin (like change author) BELOW Kitchen Sink in the plugin list. I grab a lot of that area down there so anything that links into that needs to come afterwards in the plugin list to hook in correctly.
    EDIT PART 2: Actually, click/hold does work... if you remember to.. you know... use an admin account. Too tired to trust myself lol.

    Something on your end. It installs fine on a clean 4.1.13.1 installation. You can pm me acp access and I can take a look in the morning.

    That would be a nightmare to handle. Right now the search element is embedded within the navbar and floated right. You can swap the positions of the menu and the search (search on left, menu on right) easily enough but after that it's pretty much madness and way beyond this plugin.
    KS 2 released:
    Bigger Mark Site as Read and Default Stream icons option (also added in missing title element on Default Streams) Apply button classes to Start New Topic, Question, Moderator Options links if they are optioned over to buttons.

    Kitchen Sink
    All the things you want changed or restored in one single plugin! Everything including as they say...
    Restores topic stats! Topic authors can always edit first posts! Customize the breadcrumb! Remove the Create menu! Better IPS update notifications! Change the lightbox! More!
    Why?
    There are many small things with the IPS suite that need to be customize-able or restored from the 3x series. I could write a bajillion single-use plugins or I can put some effort into it, pile them all into one plugin, and make a few bucks for the work (and she is wrapping up her second cancer in three years so yes, money good...)
     
    So this includes...?
    Global:
    Customize the breadcrumb! Remove the last element, swap out the home icon, etc. Control appearance of Mark Site Read and Unread Content (just words, just icons, or move them out of the breadcrumb to the user menu). Square up the appearance of the search entry area. Customize the light box! Full screen effect? White instead of black? Yes! Userbar:
    Disable the Create menu. Replace the Create menu appearance with just a FontAwesome icon. I recommend fa-pencil. Remove all horizontal separators in the userbar. Change the member menu dropdown link. Leave it as the default avatar and member name, just member name, or just avatar. Calendar:
    When you scroll down, the view title (day, month, week, etc.) is pinned to the very top edge of the browser. Adds padding to make it look much better. Square up those calendar and event tags from those rounded monstrosities. Make the cover photo header area for events much bigger (larger event title font too). Forums and Topics:
    Restores the 3x series topic count statistic on forum index views. Yes, it's back! Can choose to display post count, topic count or both on forum index views. Add a locked icon badge in front of topic titles in topic view when a topic is locked (similar to pinned and featured posts). Change start new topic, moderator option, etc. links in topic view to appear as buttons instead of text links. Disable reply to topic button if you like (no one really uses it anymore...) Fully customize-able new posts separator in topic view. Set some basic info in custom.css and then use the full editor here to add content!  Change number of topics listed per page on forum view (same as one of my free plugins). First posts:
    Allow all topic authors to edit their first posts regardless of any edit time restrictions in the ACP. You can even configure this on a per-forum basis! Post view:
    A bunch of structural options. Hide the multi-quote button. Move the quote and/or edit buttons under the options menu. Change the options menu to a single gear icon. IPS Upgrades:
    For admins with permissions to view upgrade announcements this replaces the full page width upgrade announcement header with a pulsing download icon in the userbar. Clicking it displays a popup with the complete upgrade information.
    (The pulse is sped up for the gif. It's slower on normal upgrades; security upgrades will pulse faster but not this fast (and they pulse red!)
    I've probably forgotten some stuff. And there is more to come too!
     
    Questions
    Can I ask for something to be changed or included?
    Yes, absolutely! That's kind of the whole point of this. There are some basic rules though. If I think it is too involved, or I think that once I start it that it would be better off as it's own plugin I'll pass. Just ask in the support topic and we'll go from there. I decide in the end, you may or may not like my decisions...
    What if IPS changes something and...
    If they add something into the suite that I fixed/added here then it will probably be removed from Kitchen Sink. No need to duplicate functionality. If something in this plugin breaks due to a change in the IPS Suite I'll of course try to fix it if it is fixable. Or I might remove it until it can be fixed; I expect things to change over the years - you should too.
    Seems to be forums heavy...
    Yep. I can only target what I'm most familiar with. If you need something with the other applications speak up! The focus of this plugin is on the Core, Calendar, and Forums. I can fold in some stuff from the other apps if they are small things but otherwise I've got something else in the works for Gallery, Commerce, and Downloads (yes, another all in one...probably).
    Anything on the ACP side?
    No but... Spacious ACP! Get that! Especially since I'm due to rewrite it and it will include a Kitchen Sink-like plugin to tackle any ACP things that need to be done!
    This <feature> isn't working on my site!
    If you have custom.css that conflicts, or your custom theme has moved elements around, and so on, there is not a lot I can do. I can give you some help in the support topic but the further you (or theme authors) move away from the default IPS structure the harder it will be for plugins to work. Most of Kitchen Sink should work for everyone. I do not support modified themes but I'll lend a hand as I can time permitting. This plugin is FULLY tested on a fresh 4.1.12.1 installation of the IPS suite with no other plugins loaded and no custom.css. 
    What's next?
    If I don't release Kitchen Sink now I would never release it as I would always be waiting to add "just one more thing..." But yes, there is stuff already marked for inclusion. I recently took over a ton of Adriano's free work. Most (all?) will remain free but updates and new features are likely to be folded into here or the revised Spacious ACP.
     
    Cost
    $10 to buy, $5 every six months. That's $8.50 and $4 to me after IPS fees. Regular renewals keep me perky enough to want to support this wonderful monster. Your renewals get you support, bug fixes, and new features too! You don't have to renew of course but if you lapse too long I might make you just buy it outright again.
     
    Terms
    One buy, one site. Feel free to use on your test site if you have one of course. If you lapse on renewals so long that I tell you to buy it again that does NOT mean you now have licenses to two separate copies.
     
    Thank You!
