One thing I want to get going is a "fast reply" option. It shouldn't be very long and I'll have that going.

There are some gui elements that I need to improve just a little bit.

Anything you feel would be of benefit, please post it here. This forum is MUCH more customizable than the ProBoards one was.

Man, is this place looking great! I see you had no problems styling the advanced bbcode box. :)




Now about changing the board start date....

Open up your favorite code editor (you DO have a code editor, don't you?) and paste this code into a new file. Save as 'datefix.php' and upload it to the root of you phpBB installation--in other words where index.php is located. click on datefix.php to change the start date of this forum to December 1, 2007 at midnight.

DELETE DATEFIX.PHP AFTER YOU DO THIS!

(and delete the above link to it, too :P )




Code:

The only thing I miss (though it may be here and I simply didn't see it) is the "20 most recent posts." Especially if it became "25 most recent posts." Man would THAT be badass :)

I will look into that. The actual buttons are already made--it's just figuring out what the link would be to put into it. It's the fact that it's the latest 20 messages, not just the headers for them. I'll definitely check into that. It looked cool there too.

Well, I have a cheap version there for now--it's near the bottom--it says View Recent Posts. Normally the option doesn't show up unless you're in the main index. I'd like it to show up closer to the forum area on the top, but all I could immediately get it to do was be just underneath the other buttons (faq search memberllist etc..) at the top instead of being just above the forum area. I'm sure I'll figure out a way.

Well, it's not so cheap now, but I'm not sure if I like the extra space at the top.... hmmm......

Okay, how does that look with it at the top? I want it to not stick out quite as much as the other buttons. The reason it looks so much different is that before there were dividing lines between graphics--on this one it's a fade to black, so the extra buttons below I need to make sure don't stand out as much as the ones at the top (as much as the FAQ Search Memberlist etc..).

Is the color right on it, or should I go with another hue.... as you come back to the page, you'll probably see a bunch of versions of it....

Okay--well, how are these two images at the top? Do these do a close enough of a thing to what they did on the other forum, or should I keep looking into ways of making it display the same types of results as on the other board? For me, these things cover it better than the ProBoards forum, but I may search things differently than others do.

Please let me know. :)
