If there's anything that needs doing to the forums, post here and let me know. For example if you want a new board added, a thraed stickyed or if you want me to add a special code.

Can we get a list of the special codes and what they do? Maybe we can pick what we like too.
Or a link to wherever they are at. (As you can tell, I know absolutly nothing about this.)

Can you make it so that when there is a new post in a board the icon next to the board says NEW! like it did in the random forums?

Tali, done Mi, here's a link to one good site: ssdesigns.proboards17.com/index.cgi? but you need to register first to view the cross browser database. But I won't be adding any codes that do stuff which will be in PBv4 since that'll be out soon

Can we have it mentioned somewhere that new people are likely to look that we do NOT appreciate swearing and bad language e.t.c.
Some people forget and some don't see, so please write it somewhere, and somewhere farily obvious.

Perhaps in the Rules

That is quite obvious But if we do get any problems, a Mod can just delete the post and give them a warning. But if we do get repeated violations, I can put a little note in the Kinship InfoBox about it

I just happen to know that the percentage of people who acctually read the rules before posting is quite low. I have to guiltly admit that I didn't, I read it after I joined and when we were discusing it, not before

You mean you didn't even read the whole of the MEO thread because the rules are listed on there too. Plus there's now a link at the bottom of the page telling applicants to read the rules before applying. I'll consider adding something else, somewhere else to remind people how they should act on the forums Edit:[/color] Tin, I've asked on the Proboard support forum if there's a way you can search for new posts

Thank Elindir that button would make life SSSsoooooooo much easier, it's the one thing I don't like about these boards and that I love about the GA ones, New Posts button

Tin, can I have a link to the GA forum to use as an example since nobody seems to have a clue what I'm asking for

ga.gloriousff.com/forums/Is the link though unless you are a member and signed in you can't see the new posts button. It basically brings up a list of all the threads that have been posted in since you last visited the forums. After all when you log in you can see when you logged in before that, it's basically using a search with that information and bringing up all the threads. Bit like the one on MEO.

Hmmm....I'm still not sure how to do it. I'll try asking again and using both the MEO and the GF forums as examples. Somebodys got to know if its possible. If not, I'll ask if anyone knows how to change the 'last 10 posts' to a 'last 50 posts'

Sorry Tin. I've asked but it would appear that proboards doesn't support such a function. Maybe it'll be in v4 and just hasn't been announced yet but I wouldn't get your hopes up

On a slightly more positive note, Apparently in v4 when you click the 'new' icon next to a thread, it'll take you to the first unread post

Oooooooohhhhhh, yay, better working conditions It'll make checking the new threads and posts easier, I hope, we'll I guess the unlitmate test will be when it comes out.
