Most hosting comes with some sort of stats system, so GA is not required to have more accurate stats.

Seems like maybe print could really be two plugins a "Save Topic" plugin for those who want to save a topic to send to someone, and a print plug for those who want to offer the option to print. Though really if the save version is printable then really only need a save topic plugin. Maybe even have different file output types depending what extensions the server has. Basic HTML, PDF for those that can ect ect.

The Pub / Re: RSS feeds (Was: Some admin options required)
« on August 20th, 2012, 10:51 PM »Perhaps we could hide RSS feeds for boards that are not visible to guests?
Seems to me that would likely be the most logical thing, given that most readers can't deal with the cookies attached to the browser.

I have never once printed a thread in 15ish years using forums. How lame am I?

The Pub / Re: Only display 'Redirect boards' when there actually are any
« on July 24th, 2012, 06:05 PM »
I like the idea of not showing the redirect if there is no redirect. I don't personally use legends however that has more to being fairly familiar with how forums work.

The Pub / Re: The Cookie Law (in the UK at least)
« on June 20th, 2012, 06:38 AM »
How is asking users if its okay to store a cookie a stepping stone to limiting free speech? I don't follow the logic. It is in no way limiting you, about all it does is maybe add a small amount of work.
If you or the software you use ask the question, you know it was asked, so you have proof, so they can't come after you just because they have cookies from your site. Say you let the browser do the work, you have zero proof that they clicked I accept, so they turn you in and you get fined. Oh yeah the user turned off the the cookie question because they didn't read the check mark that says don't ask again.
Do you really trust browser makers to implement a standard that works worth a darn.
Plus, your site still have to interact with the browser, yes send them the cookie, okay you get to sign in, no don't send cookie. Send them to a page that explains why they can't use that part of your site. So at the end of the day you have the same extra work, it still have to play nicely with the big four.
All your freedoms are limited already anyway, your freedom can't encroach on Tims freedom over there. You can say you don't like red heads, that's your right. You can refuse to interact with redheads, that's your right. You have no right to limit what Tim the redhead does. Your right to not like him ends when you don't want.
You can still do whatever you want with your site, this law and others like it in no way limit what you as a site owner can do.

Well as silly as this law may be and how it may not affect me now. I am all for the handling in core. If its based on what ever law is most stringent it means most will comply everywhere. I can't see how asking a user is it okay if I put cookies on your computer is in any way infringing on freedom of speech.
DNT is a fairy good concept but it still requires work of site owners not sure what all the hoopla about this is TBH. Sure the people making these laws are ignorant to how technology works, but at the end of the day nothing to scary yet,

Burn out blows and its not always caused by the work itself. A break to reflect is always nice.

Plugins / Re: Plugin Development
« on June 11th, 2012, 10:36 PM »Hooks should be encouraged and/or required, where they exist and can be used... but having the ability to add your own hook into a piece of code or edit code if absolutely required instead of waiting for a new release is very powerful...
Think of it this way, Hooks and the new plugin system is in a Wedge going more modular and it won't take at least 2 years to get there. Because it already works (not that its available, don't want to confuse anyone :P )
