ADMIN AND MODERATOR FUNCTIONS
Articles by Admin or Moderator published on a set Date and Time.
Quite often I have to write postings or make announcements on a particular day or time. It would be very useful if admins and moderators could make these postings in advance and set the date and time for when the article or announcement should appear live on the forum.
Signatures, website url, ICQ ect.
The Admin or Moderator should be able to enable/disable these functions for users.
It may also be a good idea to add SKYPE to the above list so that Users can show their SKYPE name.
Rich Text Editor
RTE editor should be able to be set so that only Admins and trusted moderators can use the editor if it is disabled for users.
Moderating Posts
On/off system by member for moderating posts. Trusted members can post without moderation but if they break rules they once again have to have their postings moderated before it appears live.
Registration of New Users
When a new user registers his IP number should also be added to the tblAuthor field in the database, so that Admins and Moderators can see which uses register multiple times. (I am aware that IP numbers change with dial up connections, but any other methods of being able to identify users with multiple accounts would be very useful).
Newest Users and members
The admin should be able to set when a users Name appears as a member of the forum (shows up on the member list and is shown as the newest member in the Forum statistics). This stops the Forum memberlist from being filled up with in some cases "bogus" members and will give a better account of how many active members there are in the forum.
Borg thanks for your hard work and giving us the chance to make some suggestions.
