Looking good

Yeah a criteria option of min total posts for that would be good.
Would like to see the options for certain fields in there?
Location or something.

Mark looks up language file and changes

I'm liking it Rick.
Good to see so many requests coming on line and its refreshing
to see new islands, it think you should try and get new ones
into stock more often.

I cant wait to get the final one on my forums.

Yeh, I'd like to see location as well... can think of something i'll be modding at dev ...

Can you mod me a specific choice for "featured member" so it's not random? Something so I can input a user number

Got an email ...not blank this time! Yeah!

Customized Tag , for users to more easily classify their threads/posts , not just a "Watch List".

As an OpenID Provider.

SOAP/REST/JSON API to query data... such as user's profile , posts . Thread's posts ...etc.

I think OpenID Provider is the most important . Because it gives programmers ability to hook their application's identities to UBBThread. So ... please mark it higher priority.

I do kind of like the OpenID idea

I do miss the little check box in ubbclassic as an option when posting to get an email when someone responds. Quick, easy, optional. Is it just hiding from me?

It's there, just worded a bit different. Go into your My Stuff -> Preferences and make sure that "By default should anything added to your Watch Lists be emailed to you?" is set to Yes.

Then when replying to a topic or creating a new topic, check the "Add this thread to my Watched Topics".

I just upgraded my site to 7.4b2. Upgrade went smoothly and, after uploading everything, took only a few minutes.

Two points that might make things easier for others:

1. I upload the directories one at a time (in case the connection to my server is disrupted). So I print a listing of the directories to checkoff one at a time. It would be useful if all the major directories (admin, etc.) were listed right in the upgrade instructions (and in alphabetical order).

2. It would be useful if common settings that were defaulted also be listed. For example, this time I remembered to change my langauage setting from iso-8859-1 (the default) back to UTF-8 right after the upgrade and before re-opening the board. I didn't know about it at the last upgrade and now I have a whole bunch of odd characters in my database I can never get rid of.

So far, all looks great!
Thanks Rick!

Thanks Jake,

Question: Would everyone have to do this...or under what conditions would you need to change the default?
