We've just started a topic to track the changelog for what's coming up in 7.3. Feel free to use this topic for any discussion concerning any of the notes.

Lets read what's coming up first edit: Looking good so far! edit2: Since this is a discussion topic, let's discuss 7.3 Change: The entire UBB Code parsing engine has been rewritten to be much more flexible.I hope this flexability will be also be put towards settings of where which ubb code is allowed. (ie, I don't want spoilers, smileys, videotags (if they are coming), images in signatures, but I might want to add color to the shoutbox). 7.3 Feature: It is now possible to limit the number of images that can be contained in a single post.Will this be including smileys like in classic? 7.3 Feature: New option to hide post counts from being viewable.All together or just with the posts? I can see where you want them available in the profile if you really want to look, but have them away from the generic forum pages.

While I still don't have the UI enabled for disabling certain codes, you can modify the method do_markup() in /libs/html.inc.php and add $this->bbcode_parser->disallow_tag("spoiler");
The postcount is a global setting. As for limiting graemlins, this would only be practical for users using php 5.1, otherwise we'd need to slow down the parser by parsing each graemlin separately.

7.3 Feature: The admin can select a 'category only' mode, which tells cfrm to display only categories as the starting point. this is very useful for boards with tons of forums Cool. Will this be an all or nothing option? Meaning, can you decide if some forums are displayed?

As for limiting graemlins, this would only be practical for users using php 5.1, otherwise we'd need to slow down the parser by parsing each graemlin separately. Well, I don't want to limit the greamlins. It was just that in the classic days where we had an image limit, it was also counting the greamlins as images. While I still don't have the UI enabled for disabling certain codes, you can modify the method do_markup() I want to specificly say in which section certain ubb codes are not allowed. We have a strict non image signature for instance, so we dissalow also greamlins there. Currently I have to alter the code for this. A GUI would be perfect for this, a table with all the possible ubb codes, and marks where you want to allow them. It would be even more perfect if the text editor would also remove any non allowed ubbcodes from the menu (ie, I now have to hack out the font name and size stuff because I don't want them anyway).

Yeh, I don't like Gramelin limits, BUT I love the image limit (as some users will just post image after image..)

A limit to the number of Graemlins would be great

There is also more to come, but additionally keep in mind when reading all the changes Ian Spence made.
That is only the equivalent of the tip of the iceberg, with respect to what was actually accomplished. I'm lucky enough to have gotten my grubby mitts on it and am impressed.
When you get a chance to look @ the code, you'll realize that the 'iceberg' is deep and wide and solid.
Matter of fact, when you see a '1 liner' in the changelog and the description looks simple in nature, you might be surprised that it was one of the more difficult things to add to the new core.

Hello folks, is there any chance that an admin changeable edit time on a per forum basis will be implemented? We need this on http://forum.astronomie.de for our "I want to sell" and "I want to buy" boards.

Best bet is to suggest it in the suggestions / feedback forum - it might get missed here FWIW - I agree

7.3 Feature: Added a Control Panel option so Admins can designate to show both the Custom Title & Poost Based Title, or only the Custom one. Again one less hack In case of option #2 (only custom title display) does it show the post based title if the custom title is empty? That's the behavior I am looking for.

7.3 Feature: Added a config option to designate how many Usernames are displayed in the Who's Online portal box. Setting this to 0 will make it display all Usernames. mmm, that'll go well with a template hack I've been thinking about doing hehe

Can we add an option to a members profile to "View all pictures posted by this member" so you can have a look at a users particular set of pictures rather than having to sift through them all.
