Great guys, thanks for those posts.   The only thing I noticed was the need to edit cuteseal's mods so the titles reflected the correct content ie; Active Topic was duplicated in both files as the "Title".

Great work guys!  Hopefully this will be implemented in the next version!

edduddiee, thanks for the post and the help!

Can you and cuteseal post your code?

Yup, I second this one as well.   I think a simple link in the header for "Today's Posts" or "Active Topics" would be an excellent addition. 

The best thing would have a link to a page like the ones discussed here:
http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=4160

but especially like cuteseal has at the bottom of the page here:

Dang that just looks REALLY sharp!

But, I've said it before, and saying it again.... "KISS"  Keep It Simple..."

Okay, I need to add my 2 cents.

I'll second this option.  I would NOT have it default to the last box selected, because then you need to remember to look at the box with every thread you reply to.

But, I like the idea of having an option in the user preferences to "Subscribe to topic when you reply" option that makes the checkbox already selected.

I mean, come on, who doesn't like to know that they have replies to something they posted?   smile

But hey, "KISS" (keep it simple stupid!)  If it will slow things down / cause problems, don't do it!

Rickard,

First off, I applaud your Excellent idea for this script: "KISS - Keep it simple stupid!"

You've done a great job at deciding what should and shouldn't be a feature for your application.  I can't imagine that it is easy to say no all the time to all of those requests, but keep it up!  ...well, except for my requests!  wink

I've tried a few different BB systems and they had one of two problems:

1)  WAAAAAY too many features.  The installation, setup, and learning curve for an admin was incredibly too long.  Sure, some of those other apps are fine for people who run businesses that live and die by their forums, but that isn't what all of us are looking for.  When I hit download on PunBB I was so happy to see that it was only 196 kb!

2)  The other "small" BB systems don't have the same look and feel of the "big guys" which makes it difficult for many users to navigate when they are use to using the other forums.

PunBB is a perfect middle point between those two extreames... I just wish I would have found it before I wasted my life and my server resources on those other programs!

Personally, I don't think ANYONE should remove the link / copyright notice on the bottom of their forum unless:

1)  They've donated some money to Rickard for all his hard work.
or..
2)  They've found him that programming job he mentioned on the home page.

Keep up the great work man!

cuteseal,  I REALLY like what you did here:
http://www.shuttertalk.com/forums/index.php

For those of us (me) that are php / design challenged could you post the code that you used to create the Recent and Most Active side by side?

Thanks in advance!
