    ​This has always been a worry of mine - whether you get a rouge moderator or someone gets a moderator's password.
    I just have those functions turned off for moderators to begin with - only the admin can perform those tasks.

    I see my thoughts posted above on making this a "bit safer" were taken into consideration for future implementation, as seen on the Feature Plan page.

    I would find it easier to work with on the front end, but I agree with most of your other extra protection proposals.  Having it only available for people who have ACP access would be a good security check.

    I too have seen 'accidents' with this feature.
    I thought about extra protection for it, but thinking again instead of how it was in 3x and 2x ie a global mod option, how about making it only available to those with ACP access and in a global mod group ?
    Another idea would be to request the users password I guess, although I am starting to think this should *only* be available in the ACP itself rather than appear on the front end...

    Yes it's something we will work on. Just want to try to find a way to make it a bit safer.

    I understand that worry.  I limited the ability to just my main admins for that exact reason.  It is however something I use on a regular schedule (not often, but at regular intervals throughout a year).  I have to move an entire category's worth of topics into a sub-topic by year.

    I assume you mean the front end features?
    We were wary to put this in 4.0 because of countless stories of rogue moderators mass-pruning and entire forum before an admin realized what happened.
    But you are right that the missing low-level options to prune/mass-move is sometimes difficult to work around.

    We are missing the Prune/Mass Move function in 4.0.
    We need this back.

    I guess that the upgrade to the last IPS version disable the plugin. I just enable it! Thanks!

    I've just installed.  Will this go in and display history, or just items from now going forward?  Currently I don't see anything in the Mail Bouncer.

    I don't understand do you have disabled popup when using multiple popups? It's not related to the editor or textarea, check your HTML tags.

    Yup, I don't.
    I guess I'll do that. When I want to use HMTL I enable it and then set the classes. That way when I turn the editor back on I can make the property changes through CSS.

    Turning off editor it shows the textarea that also supports HTML. Don't give permissions to users who don't know.

    Keep in mind that a sub forum will require a SSL cert or a wildcard cert to cover it.  If you are not using SSL then it's all preference with one big exception.  The sub domain is seen a bit different for SEO, this is from a Moz article.
    5. Subdomains or Sub-folders Since search engines keep different metrics for domains than they do subdomains, it is recommended that webmasters place link-worthy content like blogs in subfolders rather than subdomains. (i.e. www.example.com/blog/ rather than blog.example.com) The notable exceptions to this are language-specific websites. (i.e., en.example.com for the English version of the website).http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain
    Simply something to think on.

    This feature would be really helpful for our forum. Most of our sub forums were never pruned as members treat most of the posts as a resource to help with their interests but we do ahve a couple of areas where off topic content is permitted, and a simple pruning tool really would be a boon.

    From what I understand it is possible it will make a comeback at some point with some additional protection, going from what I can recall reading when we had the 'upcoming' type features page.
    I also recall my and others suggestions that extra protection to it would be added as prune 'accident's are scary and quite upsetting to forum admins, more so the ones without a current backup available. Having seen this happen myself to a community, its not nice.
    I'm not sure what the protection is likely to be, I recall suggesting a re-authenticate (ie: you would have to confirm your password to use it) and possibly it may be restricted to those who have ACP access.

    For @prupdated I could recommend you use the archive feature and store your archived posts in a separate database than your more recent stuff. I think it would likely improve your load times.

    This should really move up the priority list. I have a forum with nearly 4 million posts and 600k topics.
    In IPB3, the size of the forums didn't seem to matter. In IPB 4, the site chokes up and delays about 2-3 seconds every time someone would click on a forum with a large number of topics in it. By large, I mean several hundred thousand topics and millions of posts. Clicking on a smaller forum is no problem and happens fast. This is a 12 core server with 32 GB of RAM running at 3.2 GHz, MariaDB, etc. and various optimizations, CDN, etc.
    The only way I could even use IPB4 without reverting back to IPB 3 and reconsidering my alternatives, was to chop up the forums into smaller ones. The main forum being about 50k topics max. Most likely the way I do it is not the best through various SQL statements. But to keep the site moving with sub second load times, I push out topics over 90 days old into an annual forum.
    I know there's an archive option, but the last time I tried that I didn't like that it took those topics out of searches and member's history. I'd rather just have an option to move topics to another forum after X days without the archiving.

    It was requested during the 4.0.0 preview/Beta. They said it would come back, someday. 4.2 who knows.
