I like them as they are now, they look like buttons, which makes sense to me since the whole button area is actually a link.

One thing to consider is that, if and when the mod is updated, it's intallation will fail if the tables already exist when that mod tries to create them during its install (and if the mod author hasn't taken that possibility into account).

IP.Board 3's applications installer takes this into consideration, and will prompt you to either drop and recreate those tables or skip that step.

Since it is a test site you're talking about it shouldn't matter too much, but just be sure to check on the size of the contents of that folder every so often. If lots of emails are going to be saved in there, it might get pretty large.

Did you have some error related to that table? I've never had an issue with it.

No. Assuming you do everything correctly, bigdump will work for you. Just try it.

Bigdump is a great tool, yes, it does work.

That just loads the topic but scrolls the page to the selected post, it's not the same thing that's being asked for here.

And more than that since there are people here, who have a license, but have not renewed support or the license itself (like myself... I only renewed it for access to articles and downloads related to IP.Board 3 when it gets released.). Then there are board administrators and moderators who come here to read up on the latest news, but don't have a license themselves...

Exactly. No one should presume to make any guesses about what the majority of IPS's customers want. A couple people supporting a topic like this, even a half dozen similar topics, doesn't mean that it's a feature most people want. IPS has said most of their clients don't install any mods at all, wouldn't that by itself mean most people don't actually need this feature?

Don't get me wrong, this is actually something that comes up pretty regularly, so obviously there is a fairly significant base of folks out there who'd want this. I just think it's silly to use the opinions of a handful of people who responded to a topic as an indication that the majority of the client base wants that feature added.

...but I still think it should be available since the demand for it far exceeds those who oppose it. :cool:

You don't actually know that.

2. Improvements to the IGNORE function: If I've ignored someone I don't want to see that they have made a post... period, I don't want to be given the option of seeing their post.. I should just NOT see their post whatsoever, I also shouldn't see that they are the last poster on board view, and I also shouldn't see posts of their's that other people have quoted.. it should be similar to how the Facebook block person feature works.. you just don't see that person at all.. it's like they don't exist! :cool:

Please, oh please add this. I ignore users for a reason, I don't want to see them at all.
