How about a different sort of forum statistics?
Dear All,
I have a habit of subscribing to a thread if I think it is of any good so that if I need to return to it I can more easily find it instead of using google... I guess others do the same... Taking this one step further - there is a lot of information in this database that could be handy to know. I was wondering if there was any way of showing the following favourites:- Top 10 most replied to threads for each forum Top 10 most subscribed threads Top 10 most popular ratings Top 10 who has started the most threads A rating of who is active (over a six month period say) on the forum... You know the sort of stuff where simple database commands could be used to give a quick and handy answer. |
Bump! (and there's more)
I'd also like to see just a list of the last 50 threads I've contributed to - without individual posts and repeated posts - just a list like you get when you click on "New Posts"
Anyone with any thoughts out there? |
hello
yes good suggestions indeed |
A common line heard is that mods are swamped with PM's complaining about things.
It would be worthwhile for the amount of such traffic to be shown some place. If a post has been flagged then if it was known, others need not flag it as well or is multiple flagging a method used to determine if a post is a problem? |

Webmaster:
I've been wanting to ask if a function can be added - similar to 'Ignore' - a feature blocking individual threads from appearing, other than stickys. Some threads by their author or title alone are of no interest for whatever reason. Another forum I am a member of has that feature, so I know it does exist in website format land.. |
No response from the powers that be...
OK powers that be - no response - how about a bit of extra space on the members "about me" page (http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/members/stretch.html) so I can stick in some links to my favourite threads?
I don't think I can add in much information in the existing slots:- biography, interests, occupation etc etc |
These are all good suggestions but, they would require a rewrite of a lot of code. In addition, the added searches would place additional burden on the cpu. Searches are very cpu intensive.

We currently use vBulletin for the Shop Forum. After they were bought out by Internet Brands they completely changed their software licensing and upgrade rules. They have ruined a great product and lost me as a customer. We own the software we have so at least for now, we're sticking with it. |
Something for the future?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Internet_forum_software I'm amazed how many different types of forum there are... ...not at all like the usual VHS vs Betamax type of race... |
