    Default Missing Features

    Help us come up with a list of what features are missing from this version of the board. This will help us make sure to reincorporate everything we can.

    Please do not use this thread to suggest new features.

    Please try not to repeat previously posted missing items.

    Here is the running list:
    1. Welcome Button
    2. Thanks Button
    3. Custom Profile Aesthetics
    4. Quote Button in Groups (?)
    5. Smilies in Quick Reply
    6. "All posts" Button noes not display posts from before the transition (may not be fixable)
    7. Cannot easily click to newest unread post within Group Discussions.
    8. No additional styles aka skins.
    9. Font color, size and family settings are not working within posts.
    10. Links within posts are not being underlined

    Fixed (?) Issues
    1. Members can select whether or not to display their birthday within their profile. This is set from Settings -> Edit Profile
    2. Members can select whether or not to allow other members to email them. This is set from Settings -> Forum Settings
    3. Members total posts are display within their profile under the About Me tab and within every post at top right.

    Hi Jordan

    The "thank you" and "welcome" buttons are missing, as well as the recieved and given "thank yous and welcomes" so far, but you know that.
    The birhtdays from the profiles.
    Also, our profiles do not not have the same background like it was, don`t know if you can fix that, mine looked like a big AC/DC poster and that`s gone.
    We can`t find our old posts and threads that we posted priror to this change( "find all posts by so and so, find all threads started by so and so")
    We can`t "quote" anymore in the social groups, nor can we see at once what the last post was that we read in a given SG, we have to go to the last post and then work our way back instead of forward like we used to.
    Is the background going to stay white as it is?

    That`s all I can think of so far, and even this is quite a lot.

    Hope you can fix that in time.

    Good luck and all the best in the New Year.

    Forgot one:

    There was also a feature where you can contact a SKMB member by email, not only by PM. That`s gone too.

    Welcome button--thank you button

    Custom profile setup, custom font settings for posts, (custom skins for the layouts), Group view for your groups not as friendly --- sure you will get lot others


    As always a big thanks to you Jordan and all others who support this board!!! You guys/gals do a gr8 job!!!

    How about a link back to StephenKing.com on the top of the board like there was before?

    Just want to say Thank you, Jordan, we really do appreciate all the work you do!

    Hey J:

    one issue --when using the new posts button u than are presented with a new groups messages button--that works. However, when in that page you see the last post within the group and the person who posted

    so when you click on the hot link of that person it should take you to that persons profile--- it takes you someone else profile

    cheers

    Jordan, in the social groups it is not showing the date and time of last post correctly. In the group about the new board features/problems it still says 6 days ago by my name as last post. But I think that is the day and time when Matt started this group. Maybe there is a default switch somewhere to make it be the date and time of the last post?

    Also, it may have already been mentioned but we can't get to the last unread post - only to the actual last post.

    Thanks!

    Not that I have anything against it, i`m just wondering did the rule for the "newbies" change i.e having to have at least 10 posts on the MB before they can access the Social Groups or leave a VM for someone?
    Cos they can now, even with zero posts.

    At the bottom of the forum homepage it doesn't have all that information about the social groups that used to be there.

    I'm really missing the "view first unread post" that was on the top left of any thread that you open. It was like magic. How did it know?
