Support Forum
Firstly – I've said it before but it's worth saying again… your plugin is the best thing out there for WordPress! Thank you.
Having watched Simple Forums progress over the last 3 or so years I'm
always amazed how it keeps improving but after using it daily over
the past 18 months there are some suggestions I have that I think
would add some great additional functionality.
I realise some of them may not be feasible in the next release or may already be in consideration but here goes…
- Each moderator has their own unread post queue so that when they
read posts it's not removed from other moderators or admin queue. - Ability to assign moderators to different forums and then
moderators only see unread posts from their assigned forum/s in their
unread posts admin queue. - Get rid of iframes for Admin new posts queue & PMs – can't use these on iPhone 🙁
- Ability for admins/mods to "suspend" a post for review. Particularly good for mods
who are unsure if a post should be deleted – set post to moderation so
that another mod or admin can check it. - Ability to edit posts
from Admin new posts queue (can open in edit mode in a new window if
it's not easy to do it within the queue itself.) - Batch processing for admin tasks. eg for:
- moving multiple threads to other forums
- deleting multiple posts within a thread.
- move multiple forums to other groups
- set permissions for multiple foru
- Batch processing for user tasks like unsubscribe.
- Menu
button for users to insert a youtube video and/or a paste HTML snippet
for embedding videos from youtube or other sources without having to use
full HTML mode which is confusing for some users. - Add users to a group via their profile.
- One
step banning – a special pre-defined group for banned members that
gives them no access without having to add them to a group and be sure
to remove them from other groups. - Option to ban by IP address.
- Lock topics when posting a reply.
- List
user posts from profile instead of threads they've posted in. Basically
a list of posts with just the first sentence (or x characters) from
each of the user's posts with a link to take you to that post and/or
thread a lot of other forums do this and it would be very very useful. - Get rid of whatever inserts linebreaks after you post when you copy/paste text... that's really annoying!
- Easier way to change domain names – right now there's a bunch of
different things you have to change if you're moving your forum to a new
address. - Ability for at least admins to see what thread a member is currently browsing (not a high priority).
I know that's a lot of stuff….
wow. quite a list!
will keep it handy, especially with plugin api coming in 5.0... a lot would be easy to add as plugin and not bloat the core...

That you can already do with custom profile fields and program hooks... of course, some php required in the hook... [Image Can Not Be Found]

Also:
-Ability to set a "second thoughts timer" so that edits to a post within that period of time don't cause it to read "Edited by xxxxx at x:xx PM" vBulletin has this, and it's usually set to a couple minutes, so when you inevitably see a typo after you post you can correct it.
-Ability for admins to edit posts without causing them to read "Edited by xxxxx at x:xx PM"
