Hi

great Plugin, i love it :)…but i had to work a lot on the source to get some errors fixed (for XHTML 1.0 Strict)

- “img” are missing “alt”
- some “a”s are not closed
- many tags not xhtml valid (mostly input tags not closed)

also i have some feature requests:

- config of dateformat in the admin…or using the dateformat from WP-config
- more config possibilities besides editing the source
- language-files for translating

Hi,

i’ve installed 1.2 several days ago…so no 1.3 was on sight for me.
So i have to do a update…no problem

with ‘more config possibilities’ i mean e.g. the possibility to change some styles in the backend, or how to display “Started” and “Last Post”.
Not every beginner is brave enough to rewrite the code :).

Localisation can be done verry easy…i think. Use Variables and define them e.g. in an array witch is defined in a seperate file…e.g. lang.php.
So everybody can change the used text in one place.
Or build a small detection to find files like “en-lang.php”, “de-lang.php” a.s.o.
In the Admin you can then show the prefix for language-selection in a dropdown, to select the language.

I’m not verry familiar with PHP or WP-Plugin-coding, i am coding ColdFusion, but i think it shouldn’t be that hard to make.

btw. thx for this great plugin. Imho it is the best WP-Forum-Plugin :)….and i’ve tested lots of them

Almost forgot this feature Request:
Showing Groups/Forums/Threads/Post depending on user-status would be _the_ killerfeature … in my eyes

As i said, i’m not verry familiar with Plugin coding for WP….i think there is a “standard-wp-way” to realise a localisation. The Example is only the way i manage it in my CF-Applications.

Theming would also be great, maybe for 1.5

Killerfeature (btw. sick buzzword ;)): It is possible to get the wp-user-status/level and depending on this it would be great if you can show e.g. a forum only for Admins or a Group or Topic.
the rights for Group or Forum could be managed in the adminpanel (Edit), for Topics or Posts while writing e.g. with a checkbox.

This forum is really shaping up to be the one of choice for me on my wordpress MU site. I’ll offer it to all my bloggers when it matures just a tad more.

Considering its only been in development since Christmas its amazing and i’m very pleased with it. Well done Yellow Swordfish, awesome work.

A couple of more additions that may be an idea.

1. Have a preview post button so the member or non member can visually see how his post will look.

2. Allow moderated posts to be viewable by the author and admin. At the moment you just see the post if your the admin and an “awaiting approval” for anyone else.

It would be handy for the author, registered or no, to be able to edit his or her posts and or see them before moderation incase of fundamental typing mistakes.

3. image button. Always handy.

Simple linking would suffice on images, Theres a massive amount of websites offering free image hosting now.

hello, this is just a great plugin, really cool.

but i have a problem: once i set up a topic, i´m not able to rename it - delete, of course - but as i changed the name
and click save (or abort) nothing happens… unfortunately this is the only way to do it.

btw. it was nice to be able to rename topics in the admin-section, geetings,

This line in your styles.css is throwing it off:


.PostEntry img {
float:left;
margin:4px 8px 4px 0pt;
}


the float left is the issue…
find this code in the SF styles:


#sforum .sficon img{
border:medium none;
margin-bottom:-4px;
padding:0pt 4px;
}


and add a


float: none;


directive

ah, sorry, missed that question…

Are you trying editing the topic name by using the admin icon tools on a forum page? And after you change the title and click save, nothing happens?

Nothing obvious comes to mind. It s just a standard HTML form with an input field, a submit and a cancel button. Plus this isn’t anything that has been reported before.

If anyone has any theories do please tell… 

That actually is correct.

the topic title, at that point, is editable. You are in the process of changing the topic title.

selecting either SAVE or Cancel will return the rest of the admin options to you.
