Thanks for your input guys...this helps! I have a couple of questions, though...
technoforum--can you name off some of the "hard to find" features? If you do that, I can specifically call them out in the new document.
Can you guys name some other little "tricks" that might be helpful for people too? I'm thinking about some of the "How Do I" questions we get all the time, but that aren't specifically included in the document right now...
1) Approve or decline new members in moderation queue 2) Move topics (to archives) 3) Search member profiles (edit info, lost password, etc.) 4) Style changes 5) Clear cache 6) MOderator settings 7) Forum settings 8) Change a forum's intro 9.) Rebuild search index, forum stat files,

A quick and easy way to back up all the data unique to a given installation of UBB would be nice improvement to the CP. Maybe I'm missing something, but if not I'd like to be able to have UBB export a data file (or two or three) containing all user account data, posts, etc, for backup purposes. Even better, such backup files could then be used to import into an installation of UBB as an upgrade procedure.
This topic is asking what the 5 or 10 most common tasks you perform in the UBB.classic control panel?
Please post Feature Suggestions in the UBB.classic Feature Suggestions Forum. Thanks! <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

LK, last time I looked UBB.classic didn't have a claendar, thus no settings to change, thanks. Same with statistics setings.
dweisss, that isn't in the control panel either. We have a backup guide here, if that is what you are looking for. If you are looking for us to automate it, that would be a different thread.
SGHB, same answer...diferent thread.
Steven put it correctly, we are looking to get a feel for the most common operations you do in your (non hacked, LK) UBB.classic control panel.

I would say a biggie would be Archiving threads. From creating the read only forum, to using Mass Move to drop them into the forum

OzLiz: This is not a feature suggestion topic. Please take any feature suggestions to the Feature Suggestions forum.
This topic is to discuss the most common functions you use in your current control panel, so that we may improve the documentation for the next release.

I do a lot of hacking, so clearing the cache is something I do most. Assigning moderators. Deleting misbehaving members. Editing Forum settings (ie description, title, intro) Giving myself a new custom title <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
