UPDATED: 2/18/10 New forum features

[Mahn]

I will list some nice features/additions I added today. (9/14/08)


1) Ignore Members: This code will put a button in each user's profile, that, when clicked, will cause you to ignore that user's post/pm/calendar entry. If you are ignoring someone, another button is put in their mini-profile which, when clicked, un-ignores them. All ignore info is stored in the cookie so if you delete your cookies or use a different computer, your ignore list will not be available.

2) Your News: This code will add a new section in the Info Center for a scrolling news ticker.

3) Split News Fader from boards: This splits the news fader from the rest of the boards.

4) Expand/Collapse News Fader: This code will allow each user to expand/collapse the news fader. It will also remember your choice.

5) Expand/Collapse Info Center: This will allow you to expand/collapse the entire info center. It will also remember your choice.

6) Extra Info Center Stats: This will add total categories, total boards, and number of sub-boards to the info center.

7) Member Count vs. Forum Age Statistics: Gives a detailed explanation of your forum's growth.

8) # of Threads and Posts under Board Title: Adds the number of threads and posts under the board titles on the main page of the forums.

9) Sticky Thread Divider: This splits the sticky threads from the normal threads and adds a title above each group.

10) Automatic Default Avatar: This automatically adds a default avatar picture, that the admin chooses, to the user's profile.

[Mahn]

It's the only one submitted and it isn't that bad. If noone else submits any, I'll just use that one.

[Milenko]

Nice features. I'm interested in the avatar making now

[Mahn]

Automatic default avatar added. Enjoy.

Said default avatar got recolored and has little bits of black around it and looks, well, ew.

Edit: (Cool admin note thingy.) It was like that before Mahn edited it so that the background would be black and the text white; when I saw it, and I checked it on multiple profiles and a different browser, the background was a gray-ish color and the text not as vibrant. There were little black dots around the letters ~ horrible paint-edit.
adminnote:Admin Note: Looks fine to me.

what's the default avatar picture?? i've looked through a couple threads to try and find someone with it, but it seems like everyone has their own custom avatars.

Kyoshi's avatar is the default one. It's a Fighter on a black background with the words 'New Investigator' at the top.

11) A Facebook style Like/Dislike System: Members will be able to like or dislike any post. A thumbs up and a thumbs down image is put at the bottom of every post:


Click on either icon and every member, not guests, will see that you like or dislike that post. On every post that a member has liked or disliked, members will be able to see who likes and who dislikes:


Clicking on the "2 people" link in the above picture would give you a complete list of who likes and who dislikes that post:

You have the option to remove your likes and your dislikes by clicking either (Unlike) or (Undislike).

12) Message Sound: A sound dings on the Home page of the forums when you have a new private message.

13) Guest Login Bar: If you are a guest, a login bar appears at the top of the page until you login or register.

14) Facebook Icon in Mini Profile: This code will allow every user to input their Facebook ID when modifying their profile. A Facebook icon will then appear in their mini-profile. The facebook icon looks like this:

15) Welcome newest member in news fader: Welcomes our newest member to the forums in the News Fader.

16) Time Zone Clock: A Time Zone clock at the top of the page that shows the times of the six U.S. major time zones.
