Plugins / Re: Signatures Once Per Page
« on March 31st, 2012, 09:01 AM »
I had that installed as a mod in my forum but i removed it later.
When the posts are next to each other or close[1] then its fine to hide the second signature.
But when a member makes the first post and then you get 5-8 replies from other members before the first member reposts then the signature should be visible.
Signature helps new members start rembering other members.

Features / Re: Badges and the displaying thereof
« on March 23rd, 2012, 02:27 PM »The easiest way for *you*, amongst the most difficult for *us* ;)
Lets talk about compromise.
Display a numbered preview of the badges and ask from the user to enter the sequense he/she wants.
In a textbox.

-sigh- So how do you want to configure it?
Reading the above messages makes me think that badges can just be a way to visualize groups. Just like adding tags to members or members to tags but with images. A legend is required somewhere and maybe a hover description.

Better late than never.
Yes multiple badges on people just like the multiple badges on a generals chest

badges for me should be motivation.
In our forum we concidered to use badges to say "well done" to members with desired behaviour:
If a member is greeting newcomers and makes them feel welcome gets the relevant badge, if it writes informative posts gets the relevant badge.
Other badges are used to show proficiency in some areas of interest and others are there to designate (usefull) past experience.
We also use some "badges" to show current emotional state like angry, sad, frustrated, tired etc (mood bears or mood stars).
Maybe that helps.

Features / Re: request for reliable backup and restore function
« on June 1st, 2011, 02:41 PM »
I used SMF backup all the time until i tried to make a local test forum and found out that my "backups" were unusable.[1]
A backup/restore function would be something like a parachute for new admins. Maybe give them a chance to restore stuff after the first fuck up[2].
Maybe a database auto backup every night, overwriting the same file as long as the forum is a small one with an option to disable it for more experienced admins. Its your call, of cource.

Features / request for reliable backup and restore function
« on June 1st, 2011, 01:12 PM »
Its all in the title actually. I dont know if it is in someones to do list, but i think something reliable here, at least for new admins could be a life saver. On the other hand someone could say that if you want to be a forum admin you should know how to backup your server.
So what do you think?

Features / Re: request for something like this mod + datatables
« on May 24th, 2011, 08:18 PM »More accurately, all the files referenced get combined and compressed before being sent to the user.
64KB minified? That's a massive extra weight to the page load. (jQuery plus the rest of the JS is already about 100KB - and that's minified and partially gzipped as well. 64KB added on is no small matter.)
This might make a really nice add-on, but it's the sort of thing I'd strongly suspect we wouldn't put in the core.

Features / request for something like this mod + datatables
« on May 24th, 2011, 04:36 PM »
I just found about a great mod to post big tables. http://mods.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=40
I think its really great if you need big tables in your forum. You can add values in cells separated by a custom character, or use csv.
It uses a javascript file so my question is:
In wedge any new javascript like from this mod is going to be automatically combined and added to existing javascript file?
I think i read that JQuery will be supported in wedge. In that case i have to suggest[1] datatables. DataTables is a plug-in for jQuery. Actually http://www.datatables.net could replace the sorting in BoardIndex, search in members and every other big searchable table in wedge. As admin i would very much apreciate the speed of that addon.

Features: Upcoming / Re: Blogs!
« on May 12th, 2011, 02:39 PM »
In my forum users use a topic as a personal diary. They post a new message with their news or whatever they want and others reply to them.
That seems like a blog for each user or at least for every user with the right permission.
Can that be achieved with wedge blogs? Could it be that every user's blog is a child board into the blogs board?

I use iso 8859-7, thats greek language. When its time for conversion everything is going to be converted to utf8 by wedge or will you leave that to smf's "convert to utf8" function?
