Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
huh? generally you make a topic when you have an idea or when you have made the plugin
Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
I have an idea for ya 
Some kind of database structure health check plugin. A plugin that compares the database structure (tables, columns, indexes etc) agains a template (the db structure of a fresh PunBB install) and spits out any differences it encounters and allows the user to hit a button or something to fix potential problems (mainly missing indexes, I can imagine).

Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
maybe someone would like to add it to the db management plugin, i don't think it would be too hard epecially since the plugin has functions for generating the table structure
Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
I need that, Show in table who is Subscribe to topic and what topic Subscribes
User Name | Topic title
If your people come crazy, you will not need to your mind any more.

Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
thats a nice easy one, if you have the db management plugin then
SELECT u.username, t.subject FROM #__subscriptions AS s LEFT JOIN #__users AS u ON s.user_id=u.id LEFT JOIN #__topics AS t ON s.topic_id=t.id;Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
I released a plugin to display the user subscriptions. Connorhd, I hope you don't mind that I based it on your DB Management plugin. (The GPL allows me to do that.)

Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
if you have then you have probably done in in an extremely over the top way, considering all you need to do is output that query i pasted in a table (although i would tidy it up a bit)

Re: Any ideas for an admin plugin?
Another useful feature would be for ADMIN to be able to subscribe users to selected topic(s).
Motivation:
Users communicate using mail and CC to all on a distribution list.
All mailboxes are filled up and some "drop out" of the conversation.
PunBB is perfect here!
BUT, to break the "mail habit" users would be strongly encouraged to use the forum if they receive Forum Alert messages in the mail.
If this feature already exist in some mod, please let me know!!
