SE Future...

[Shindou Hikaru]

i mean... i know a board-software that uses more than 200 template-files....  !!!?? totally useless.... IMHO ... it's just confusing....

I get what you mean. Mainly, changing the stylesheet should be enough.

[Spaceman-Spiff]

for YSE2 devs: dont forget the easter eggs...

[PHPlugin]

yeah!

Many red onesss and greeen onesss and blue onesss!

[Brad]

Yes but it would be nice to have a system that allows a person with limited knowledge of coding to customize his or hers boards to look and match the rest of their site.  I am anxiously awaiting Yabbse 2.0 because I find that I'm limited as to how I want my boards to look like with the current setup.  

I don't know how accurate that is, we've had plenty of people ceom from IBF and phpBB and say that they came BECAUSE of the template system YaBB uses...

besides.... there is really no point in giving users the opportunity to customize everything... 99,99999% percent of all users are only changing graphics/colors.... and only the rest makes bigger changes to the layout....

I'm missing the following features in YaBB:

-As much Usergroups, as I want.

-A feature which automatically moves every thread, where nobody has posted in a given amount of days

-perhaps own graphics for every category

-upload feature for avatars

-resize of avatars, preserving the proportions

-user-defined infos in member list

-guestbook in userprofile (nickpage style)

-userdefined fields in userprofile (add more infos and templates for the userprofiles)

-forwarding adress ability for the user profiles (www.myserver.com/u/pitch for example)

i hope to see more admin function. Such as :
- Split thread (ava. in one of the mod)
- Able to sort and compare IP (to catch some stupid guy with multiple nick from posting rubbish)
- Able to have more flexibility in delete or compress old thread (able to choose categories and date to filter, similar to search)
- a chatroom function that access the same database as the forum. Able to tell who is in the chatroom.

All the above are just my hope

- Split thread (ava. in one of the mod)

I've already made this.

I've already made this.

I'm not sure but I think that's what he meant by this

What about the next release?  1.5 or 2.0?  When will it be out?

[Jeff Lewis]

We're currently working on a 1.5 which is incorporating significant speed advances. At the same time, development continues on the next major release.

I'd expect the 1.5 version before the new year.

[skoen]

Let's hope that they will keep the language files still in one file. And, how about me getting the english.lng for version 1.5, so I can make a Norwegian translation of it, just so I can get my translation on the download list at last.

[luisr]

I am about to move to a new web host (Rochen Host if you ask - won't take one of the special plans but your sponsorship played a big role).  During this move I plan to update my YaBB SE forum to the latest release.

So do you suggest I wait for 1.5?

By the way, during this relocation, can I just transfer the database tables from one place to the other and expect the foum in the new location to work properly?  The existing one is version 1.3.1.

[PioneeR]

I moved my 1.3.1 forum over the Rochen too.

Just dumped the database and restored it.

Copied the files over (made sure all were CHMOD'ed right)

Changed the settings (file locations etc).

And was up an running quite quickly.

Upgraded to 1.4.1 (with speedup mod), had to redo quite a few mods (most work fine).

And my board has never run so quick!
