Take it kind of a feature request. WWF used to have those in the free version. I understand and honor the contributions have been made by WWF developers. If it's not free, that is ok but if it is free, THAT IS GREAT!

You have the point, Stardust, I agree, why dont we have those features if even the old WWF had it?
I wont mind to have a big WWF advertising banner/ google ads like the old version 7.
You may ask if we want the features, why dont we buy it, the reason is, most of the site we are doing are not commercial, and not all of us can afford the price of WWF.
It's great if we can have those features in version 10.
just my 2 cents.

The problem is that ads don't really cover the costs as people don't
click on them. If everything is available in the free editions then
people simply don't purchase a license.
I know that everyone thinks software should be free, but software
development is a highly skilled job taking many hours of work, and
software developers and support staff like everyone else need to be paid a living to feed
our families and kids and pay the bills at the end of the month.
It would be great to have Web Wiz Forums completely free but that day
will only come when the banks decide to clear all mortgage debts, the
supermarkets give away free food, we no-longer have to pay tax's and
utility bills, and people decide that they want to work and not have a
wage at the end of the month.
But as a totally free society is probally a few years off, then I'm
afraid in the meantime you will have to save your pennies if you want the extra
features.

Last i checked Borg isnt "contributing" he's selling a product which he is trying to make a living off so that he can have the time to develop it even futher. If he gives it away for free, he then needs a job, which means he has less time to spend on WWF, which means the features you want dont get added. If you buy a licence then you help give him time to develop the features you want, or even the time to develop an ASP.Net version.
