README: About feature requests (Page 1 of 3)

well, peoples just can post ideas and other can decide
to do or not to do a mod, if u don`t add it as a feature

Then lets focus on the mods. Let's make it easier to create mods. Let's make it easier to install mods. Let's make it easier to update mods for newer versions of PunBB. Let's make it easier to find mods. Please post your ideas here.

you are right that it would make he upgrade painfull and time consuming. cuz youll have to do the update than hope that the mods work with the new virsion, than youll haveto install thoes mods....and youll have to do that with ever PunBB update.

but mods are still kool and funn cuz they give you more stuff for your forums that the basic PunBB doesnt. so im only for the mods that are great. but thoes ones will probly end up in the next update of PunBB anyways.

you can use smtp in options in admin

MTP server address
The address of an external SMTP server to send e-mails with. You can specify a custom port number if the SMTP server doesn't run on the default port 25 (example: mail.myhost.com:3580). Leave blank to use the local mail program.

It would be useful on servers where mail() and fsockopen() are both disabled, but safe mode is off [thus you can exec/system the sendmail binary]

Those are rare, but they exist.

only thing is maybe (just maybe) if both of them are disabled then the hosts really don't want you to send emails and therefore its probably a bad idea

You can't really ask much from a free host nowdays

it's either having half of your screen shoved with ads, or getting nothing-but-the-basics host.

Anyways, thanks for considering

what about a basic help page on how to use punbb for those users that arent so clued up on forum usage

new to programming. can't find the install.php in the package. how and where? thanks

Definable user groups and post previews are in the original post

Yes

..and about "emoticon":

       function emoticon(text) {
                if (document.post.message.createTextRange && document.post.message.caretPos) {
                        var caretPos = document.post.message.caretPos;
                        caretPos.text = caretPos.text.charAt(caretPos.text.length - 1) == ' ' ? text + ' ' : text;
                        document.post.message.focus();
                } else {
                        document.post.message.value  += text;
                        document.post.message.focus();
                }
        }
