Topic: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

I don't see as much hype for it as there was for 1.2

Is it still early days? It's been a long time since I posted regularly.

We are all getting too old and knackered for hype.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

old and knackered = excuse for lazy tongue

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Maybe a plugin to install automatically mods ? tongue

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Look on the forums. There are threads about it already.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Well, here's a list of a few things you can expect in 1.3:

- Better markup and CSS (less markup, more accessible etc)
- "Fancy URLs" (via mod_rewrite)
- Proper extension support
- New topic read marking
- Post moderation (maybe user registration moderation)
- Multiple moderator groups
- Improved feeds (topic feeds, RSS, Atom, XML etc)
- "Translatable" admin interface
- Per-style templates

That's about it. On top of that there are of course lots and lots of minor tweaks and improvements.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

hey i think there should be an internal pm system in punbb plus a search engine managing section (like ipb)

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Might I direct your attention here

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

What the hell is that?

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Probably something where you give it a user agent/IP list and if a guest matches that, they get fed a certain style and are marked as a certain bot smile

I.e. something that could easily be implemented as an extension smile

I plan on making the extension system in such a way that PMs and polls are possible. What this means is that PunBB 1.3 won't "ship" with those features, but installing them won't require you to edit any scripts.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Ok I have a question.

How much change will be made with the .tpl files? if any?

Understand if you're not certain yet.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

I'm not sure. That's Paul's area smile

One potential change regarding the tpl files is that each style will have its own set of tpl files.

Thank you wink

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

Will user selectable forums (a per user setting for which forums are visible) be in 1.3? I would love to be able to deselect the test forum and all the international forums on punbb.org to make my new posts list less cluttered.

Is that likely to affect performance?

One of the reasons i dislike phpBB is the endless template files...

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

No reason why it should make any difference at all.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

I think it would be nice to offer a way for you to migrate a users posts [via drop down menu] to some other member before you delete their account.  This would be on the member delete page, in addition to the checkbox where you can choose to leave posts, or delete them when you delete the member.

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

seems a bit of an odd option, wouldn't it be better as a plugin to merge 2 users?

Re: What is planned for PunBB 1.3 then?

native PM system please!!!
