Yes, all great suggestions. Suggestions are good. We don't see them all with the very next version. But eventually most of them materialize. That's the nice thing about Rick and Infopop.. they do listen. ![[Wink]](images/icons/wink.gif) David Dreezer keeps up with the whole product line very well too. I especially like your selection about the ability to let people choose from "stock" avatars. It seems alot of forum software has that... and it does seem to be much requested. ![[Smile]](images/icons/smile.gif) Josh Measurection.com Admin | ThreadsDev.com Moderator Register to see my How To/Site Help Library Forum at ThreadsDev.com.

Oh... Kewl! It's in the language file. Dave, I thought this was your hack from way back. But now I see... it gets the array of search terms from the language file. ![[Cool]](images/icons/cool.gif) Neat, and flexible. Now what you told me on the other board makes sense. So you could change this: $ubbt_lang['USER_SORT'] = "a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z"; and add in: @,$,#,&,* etc.. ??? The only one that might "blow up" is % right?

What do you mean? Where it lists the names on the Main Index (or the top of each page as I do)?
Yeah, that's still a modification.

- Hybrid display: Shows the thread threaded display on top, and flat on the bottom Somewhat like this, but in a cleaner UBB.threads style
- Show birthdays at the bottom of the main index
- Calendar
- Instant messaging buttons on the bottom of the posts through AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo (Part of the post extras buttons)
- Move the registration date, number of posts, and location display to the bottom of posts (like in Infopop's other products)
- On the forums, show who was the last person to reply right under the date and time of the last reply (like in OpenTopic and UBB.x)
- Hot Topics (More than X number of replys, indicated by a red flame right next to the post icon)
Pretty-pink jazz > Boring-brown country music
Dixie Narco vending machines > Vendo and Royal Vendors vending machines
Boeing 767-400 > Airbus A330
Delta Airlines > All other airlines
HP printers > All other pritners

Hi, following features woul den nice: two versions of ubbthreads: one with and one without target _top so that it is possible to decide which one I want to use (Problems with displaying a forum in a hp with frames) more info in the statistic-footer: who is online with names (like classic) and the maximum of online users of the day group-management: we created a new group. If we want to change several users to an new usergroup it isn´t possible at the moment to shift for example "praktikant" (first step when you register in our forum) to user. (I tried this with the group-management function) If you try this the browser (Netscape and IE) collapses and you have to shutdown the browser. colour-management like ubbclassic That are my suggestions for now. Best regards, Michael www.boxster-group.de powered by ubbthreads

Yeah, My users change the subject line all the time as the conversation goes. It wouldn't work on my board. A bunch of my regular users use threaded or expanded mode.

Thanks Rick. Yes, it's understandable that the "who's online" feature will bump up the required system resources, though I think this feature is adequate when it just tells you who's online in general (without breaking this down into specific forums). I think that overall this feature looks really good on some sites I know, especially when there is a little note next to it that states what the all-time record is for concurrent users online. As for the constantly repeating subject-line, it's good to know that this can be dealt with by modifying templates (personally I find it distracting because it's so repetitive most of the time). ***Rick, maybe if you include the option to 'reply to nobody in particular' then you could include something that also removes the subject-line from subsequent posts? These two issues seem to go hand-in-hand. Now imagine seeing " UBB.threads 6.3 suggestion thread" at the top of each post in this thread... Arrhhh! --------- Go Cougs!

Do you think those may be added in the future if you are able to find the right way to implement them? Yes, I know not all of them may get into version 6.3 (perhaps 6.4, 6.5, and going on...) but we can hope that they come in the future without reducing speed. Rick, which of my feature suggestions do you think would take the shortest time to develop properly? And Rick, I ACTUALLY like how you delay some features to keep UBB.threads fast and reliable. I hate how the competition (I can't say thier names) quickly implements features and makes their boards slower. Pretty-pink jazz > Boring-brown country music
Dixie Narco vending machines > Vendo and Royal Vendors vending machines
Boeing 767-400 > Airbus A330
Delta Airlines > All other airlines

I asked in my previous post of which of my suggestions would probably be added first?
My guess would be that Rick and the gang are focused on getting 6.2 out the door before they commit to any 6.3 features.

I would love if Ubbthreads got the following: - An optional overview blok (perhaps above categories) that showed ALL the new headlines of topics/replies for the user logging on. The user should be able to enable/disable this from her my home settings. - A wysiwyg editor a la www.richtextbox.com that also allows for upload and insertion of images in the edit phase. - A webservice interface. This would allow for consistent integration efforts that could be robust across version upgrades. The first interface function should be stuff like login/logout, new posts, pm's avalible yes/no, etc. Think about this rick. It would help you to keep other developers at an arms length, enforcing an integration standard. - The hybrid display idea (as in vb3) suggested above is also an idea that rocks! Regards, Tim
