The only thing I can think of is the creating a mod for PostNuke.....

Other than that, I'd say this was perfect.....

Ok, these are suggestions I like to see  Backup feature pretty much works but darn safe mode kills it...

Probably been asked before (but it wasn't on this thread so I'll post it)

How about a news feature that links to the announcement boards for comments? Basically the thing that XXL has on Boardmod. This can be taken to the next step if you have more than one announcement board (maybe one in each category) to separate the news into the different categories.


This next one might be hard, and you might have to rewrite a few parts... how about if the member of the board can choose to see how many posts per page and how many threads per page and so on. I personally hate going through several tens of pages. If you made it a member's choice, then the people with slow connections can choose less posts per page, and for people like me, they can choose more posts per page.


That's all I can think of for now.... But I'm sure I'll think of others.  

I know that the mod for this is already being worked on... but.... i still think that you should be able to give different memebers of your staff different colors by default.

http://www.heavengames.com forums as an example.
or http://www.7tharmy.com/cgi-bin/YaBB/YaBB.pl is another *the old site before i upgraded to SE*

Makes it easier to see who is who for new people.

Another thing *that i think is being worked on in the same mod* but changing the number of stars for each person/by default would be nice.

Havn't actually checked to see how they are in the images, but if i wanted to go backwards *just to be different* and have my more senior members have less stars.

I just think those 2 things should be in there by default.

Naw.....I won't go there, yet!  All I wanted for christmas was a 'GO' button and a 'reverse post order' feature but alas, I must have been bad cause I did't get em.

Personally, if an integration is in the works it would be nice to see YaBB SE integrated with PostNuke.  Both script sets have the same friendly user community and it's a real treat to interact with either group.

cheers........

I just spent a bunch of time surveying bulletin board software (ubb, phpBB, XMB, openBB, phorum, vBulletin and YABB) and not one of them supported LDAP which makes it harder to implement for an intranet where you want the whole company to be able to use it.

If you guys could nail this, you would make it a no-brainer for intranet use which opens a huge "market".

I have several suggestions.

1) Advanced/Upgraded IM System
2) [related..] Advanced Notification System (prevents severe cluttering of E-Mail Inbox!)

3) The ability to have PHP in my site template! (Unless this is possible already..)

4) Sub-forums capability -- allow multiple forums with seperate databases or db_prefix's to share various areas of the forum with another forum.
(I.E.: one set of member records for multiple forums, one IM system, one set of membergroups records, one profile per user across multiple forums)

5) Keep working on making it easier to write, install, and UNinstall mods. Also, look for ways to improve the upcoming Mod Team's procedures, efficiency, and policies to assure compatiblity between mods.

6) In a future version of YaBB -- optimized and even more readable code might be nice. From what I've seen of PHP, it seems like there are some great ways to optimize the code and make it more modular. I know YaBB SE is pretty much a line-by-line port of Y1G and SP1, but in the future it'd be great to re-do a lot of that to make it even more modular.. and if possible, even more CPU/bandwidth friendly.

7) Get omario to finish his MSN mod, and make it a standard part of future versions! MSN Messenger is probably the most popular Instant Messaging system now, more so that Y!, AIM, and ICQ which are included.

A Portal System would be great -- or at least, some form of site content managing system. If you integrate with Postnuke, thats fine -- although I hope it can be made a little easier to understand how to install it and everything.

There ya go.. I think thats enough to keep ya guys busy for awhile. [Hey.. you asked!]
