    Is it possible to add settings for mobile users. Where we can switch on/off what info we show, I'd only like to show 2/3 items. Also as @superj707 said, could the mobile version be shifted to the left as it looks a little odd.

    Also, maybe an option to override the avatar size?

    Do they not get 6 months to download it for free from the date of purchase for how I priced it? I am not being sarcastic I am asking a honest question if not then I will rethink the renewal fee if they do then I still don't think its that bad as maybe in 6-7 months time 4.2 is out and the whole code needs changing and I need to do a lot of work to it, I am not the person to make something and leave it I will always try and improve my stuff and try to add what people want

    It was always 10$ the other plugin / widget I made is free as I used most of the code from this plugin for that and it took minutes to write. And this one is a plugin, yeah people can add their own if they want to edit the html and css but then they can do the same with many other plugins here, Its not a small plugin there is many settings in it and a lot of coding so for 10$ I don't think that's bad, And the renewal is for the updates I will make for it, Like now I am already writing the update with what I have read on here, It works so if people are happy with it then they don't need to renew no one is forcing them to renew

    There're two files currently out by the author. This one and a member info panel (which is free) which looks the same, maybe that was it. But to come into someone's thread and tell them how to price their product isn't on.
    Yes!

    P.S. Interesting site lol

    Very similar to Andrews version, but I like how you've added the cover photo and a few extra options, well done!

    Kitchen Sink 12 Released!
    Fixes Classifieds Application incompatibility Patches the above editable topic titles bug Adds forum descriptions to forum titles in forum index views Can now remove both multi-quote and quote buttons from post view. Yell at me if the edit first posts thing is still broken.
    Forum descriptions are created in the ACP with the full editor, not a plain text field. This KS feature is just pulling over whats there so expect the hottest of messes if you routinely use images and formatted text for your forum descriptions. This is only a convenience feature I've included for those of you who just use text exclusively for your forum descriptions and is not supported for rich-formatted text/image forum descriptions.

    As note in the updated KS Marketplace description, KS is still supported and under development but it's more or less in a holding pattern until we get the 4.2 alpha. As you can imagine there will be a lot of work to remove/change KS stuff when 4.2 hits so I'm investing my dev time as wisely as I can until then.

    Image board owners face a major struggle between forums for images and Gallery. They are disconnected.
    For those of us that run image boards IP4.x has some issues I've been thinking over. There is some disconnected logic regarding images. I have boards for posting images but I also want to use gallery. I am going to end up with fragmented content all over the place and no easy way to find content from a specific user.
    It's difficult to view IMAGE attachments per user in profile. You can see "posts" or "topics" but not attachments.  If we have boards that are set up for posting images AND Gallery installed there is a logical disconnect.  We end up with some images in the forums and other images in the gallery but no way at all to tie the two together.  (see screen shot, this user has posted MANY images to the forums but under images there isn't anything posted.)  
    Recommendation: An option to allow images posted in the forums to automatically be considered part of gallery and be view-able in both places. Forms feeding gallery would avoid any fragmentation or disconnects. Also a place in profile to view "attachments"
     
    Note: VB5 actually works by integrating user "image" content in forums or gallery into one single thing. It's one of the few things I really like about VB5. No more fragmentation or struggle between images posted in forums verses gallery

    I would argue that images uploaded to the forum should also be view-able in the gallery. Each user can have a forum posting album by default.  It can be the same physical file just multiple ways of viewing it.
    This idea is also amazing

    I was just trying to find an image a user posted in the forums, and was thinking I could look through their attachments and realized this doesn't exist.

    Maybe an easier solution for IPS could be, to allow us to view a member's attachments the same way we view our own.
    We have:
    My Attachments
    So suggestion:
    View Attachments (of others, on their profile.)
    The same way we view My/Their Activity on a profile.
    This would solve many of the hurdles... you don't need Gallery for this to work, and this covers ALL apps. If you upload an image to a Gallery comment, or a blog, or status, forums... that's an attachment.
    They could be viewed in a Gallery style with lightbox, but the main change here is we can view others' attachments.  
    If we do own Gallery, the system could create a dummy album called Attachments that is just a redirect or mirror of the other system.
    I'm sure permissions could be worked into this more easily as well, if a user posted to a forum or app category you do not have permission to view, you don't see it. But you are literally viewing their attachments so if they ever remove a post or attachment it removes it, there is no syncing with Gallery issue.

    One of my posters wrote a compelling explanation of why he prefers the image board in IP.Board rather than IP.Gallery after I explicitly recommended he switch over to the gallery in lieu of our community's image boards.  
    Takeaways:
    Queue need drag-and-drop re-order of photos  Albums need to be created faster. Albums need permissions for registered members to upload Albums need batch tagging to relate content to each other Better aggregation and display of comments per album

    SJ77 reacted to Joey_M in Leaderboard ideas   
    I think the leaderboard is a fantastic addition to PS, used in the right way it would promote fun engagements.
    I have some further ideas which I feel would make it better.
    Notify members that they have lead (Daily/Monthly) One thing is within many communities I am sure most are unaware of the feature, to promote the fun engagement and to encourage activity it would be nice to see members being told automatically.
    I'd like to see team members and members separated, create more friendly competition but IMO, team members within sites are always likely to lead. Just look at IPS, it's mostly staff members or popular developers, this cuts so many people who make great efforts. Within my own community, it's usually always me or one of my team members and I think it would be nice to split it up. I have some other suggestions, however these are the main areas. I'd love to see other clients make suggestions!

    users automatically get a "forum upload" album. Anything from the forums goes there. Same as facebooks "timeline" album.

    To answer your question my specific situation goes back to the old yahoo groups before there even was any real "forum" software. You see, we've had our community evolve through 4 different versions now going back to 1999. First it was phpbb to replace yahoo groups. Well, we setup picture forums as there was no Gallery as part of that package. We converted to SMF (7 years ago)  which had a gallery via MOD but it wasn't as solid as we liked and our community was already locked into forums as a way of life. 
    Now that we have IPS which comes with a really fantastic gallery, I talked it over with my mods and we are really torn up about the right approach. We know our users will still want to use the forums but we think the gallery has a lot of potential. We like picture forums because posts with pictures foster a threaded conversation about the respective pictures. This we like. However, the gallery has a lot of added functionality. As it is now our forums are centered around pictures but we want to use gallery and can't figure out how to smoothly marry the two. We want to easily find all the image content someone has posted to the website without having to search for fragmented content in two different apps.

    Excellent discussion.  I'd suggest that you don't limit this to just Gallery images, but also to images in Pages.  Those assets should be just as "shareable" and "reusable" as any others -- but they also need to be identified as coming from Pages, with the ability to view ONLY the images in Pages.

    Hi @superj707
    In your forms you need to specifically add the variables you want saved, either into a forum thread, PM, email or in the logs section itself.
    So for example if you want your logs to save the information entered, you would need to add something like this to the 'log message' for that specific form.
    {field_name_27}: {field_value_27} {field_name_28}: {field_value_28} {field_name_29}: {field_value_29} {field_name_30}: {field_value_30} {field_name_31}: {field_value_31} I generally have all my forms submit to a forum thread as I find that is easier to organise. But I also save some of the data in logs which I don't want displaying in forum threads.

    I do not believe this app functions as a 'database' like some people assume. It simply spits out the data from the form into the places you have set it. If you have not set it to record any of the field data in forum thread, pm or a log, then the data simply is lost (I think. Mike John will be able to speak more to this)

    In there you determine what output the form creates: topic, private message, email. You can use just one, a mix, or all three. This is where you can use the Quick Tags that are underneath the name of each form field.
