The new header image is great and all, but if I don't get a Melee-themed alternative, I'm gonna blow my brains out.

I think the header should be a random image between the 4 smashes :3

along with reversed post sort order...
I'd like to also request reversing the order of posts in convos as well...
that way I won't have to create a new fav when another page is added,
and I won't have to hold the button for 5 minutes to scroll to the bottom.

a "last page" link on the watched threads would also be nice (or "first page" if you have "reversed sort order" enabled)

well, I've made progress and got my compy up and running, and am nearly finished with the installations. :af:
so how's progress going on the BBC progress bars??:
[progress]80[/progress]
and how's progress going on inverted post sort order??

[progress]80[/progress]
Code:

this option:
post sort order: [ newest first | v ]
how come I'm not hearing of progress on this??
it's very annoying having to fix my bookmarks everytime my threads go on a new page.
I want all my bookmarks to go to only the first page with the newest post at the very top of the page.
why do we not have this yet??
whoever had the idea to remove it should've been shot. (not srs)
if this isn't added soon, I vote Xenforo a -1 and say VBullitin was better.
(it's an extremely useful feature, which makes me question the intelligence of forum designers who don't have the option)
^ such as ProBoards. (I'm having this same argument with them)
also, to add to the zazz of this forum:
how bout an option to use the [color ]tags within the [code ] tags
(syntax highlighting for non-BBC codes)
for BBC codes, you could always do [code = BBC ]
lol I've gotten used to doing it over at kc-mm,
but kc-mm doesn't remove the indentation.

still waiting for reversed post sort order option (in threads)...
why is it taking so long >_>
I wouldn't be complaining if I at least heard info on it's implamentation
Tcll
Smash Lord
I'm actually beginning to get very annoyed that this forum STILL doesn't have this feature and am considering moving my groups off of this forum because of it.
I want the first post on the last page:
- less clicking to get to the newest post
- don't have to scroll to the bottom to read the newest post
but MOST importantly:
- don't have to update my fav-link with page 2, 3, 4, etc.
if this isn't implamented soon, or I'm not notified of it's progress of being implamented (that's not 0%),
I'll be moving my projects and will probably leave the forum.
(that feature is very important when it comes to large projects like mine)

Quad post complaining about features you personally want? You are not entitled to being the head of the development team for this site, you know.

you're right... I'm sorry... -.-*
it's just that...
of all forums that had to remove the option...
why'd it have to be this forum?? -.-
I'm somewhat rooting for - you to switch back to vBullitin.
I like Xenforo, but bamfing a VERY useful feature is not something I get very friendly about...

We haven't even fully recovered from the DDoS, which basically set things back quite a bit. Speaking of which, support email is up again!
I'm sorry you are upset with how slow implementation of features you want to see is coming. Do you know anything about forums? About Xenforo, specifically? Would you be willing to help? If so send me a message/lets start a conversation about working through things. If you don't have the time, but do know how to solve the issues, I would love to read links/specifics so I can add it to the to-do list.
One of the biggest issues right now is that I don't want to bring the boards down for certain upgrades so soon after having been down for 24 or so days because of the DDoS, we haven't even been up for 1 month straight yet. Frankly, the biggest priority is once I'm satisified stability has returned, I want to target upgrading to Xenforo 1.2 - problem is that most certainly means some amount of downtime, and with Apex fast approaching and coming off the DDoS, the timing is super awkward.

oh... :o
well I'm sorry I'm being such an A then
to answer your Q's:
Yes, No, and minorly (large plate)
I may not know how to implament the feature, but I can prbly look it up
I do have a forum myself, and have tried implamenting the feature through their plugins,
but the devs just informed me I can only flip the pages... not reverse the links of the page order...
I feel bad now, and I know I should... heh
I'm sorry for being an A...
I deal with alot of this crap... -.-*
I would rather start something to get something resolved

Don't feel bad, there are so many things on the to-do list at this point its crazy, but like everyone it's about juggling time, resources, and managing how to figure out when it is best to implement the things that can be done. It is perfectly reasonable to wonder when things will happen or what is on the horizon, but at the end of the day there are only so many who are helping with the site and without Bionic we have a rather large hole in the development realm to be filled.

maybe I can make an opening and see what I can do for you guys
IDK... I have a rather large plate to manage, and everything's Real Time >_<
unlike a forum's src which can be pushed back... heh
mainly my crap is with UMC and my forum, but I've currently got my forum on hold, so I can clear a bit up there...
the only thing that scares me is I've never used Xenforo as I can only afford free.
but ProBoards v5 is alot like Xenforo in that it has a plugin systen and editable HTML templates...
however, that's all forum local... reversed post order has to be implamented via the PB server, which I can't access...
I'll prbly just stick with providing IE8 compatible HTML/JS content where I can...
for example:
a real-time preview area http://tcll5850.hostoi.com/preview.htm
NOTE: this is only an example, so it doesn't do BBC.
the trick is to auto-update DIV.innerHTML with the HTML dynamically created in a text-area.
I've also provided a "preview" button that will update the div if auto is disabled
right now, PB devs seem to have a problem with my idea...
they want to use the visual editor as a preview. >_<
(this likely won't work well)

Since we have the Brawl mains, Melee mains, and 64 mains, why not have Project M mains?

I think I might be able to answer that...
PM isn't exactly and official game...
to top it off... I don't think I've seen an official PM section :/
I don't mean to sound offensive or anything... just sayin... heh

yeh, I'm not saying there wouldn't be one
it's just not official (on the front page)
or should I quote it "official" XD
I just hope Pichu returns in SSB4 ;_; (I want an icon so badly)
(they made up for Pichu hurting himself by making his moves stronger)
^ he was just a little too light however XD

The site runs fine. A bit intense with all the options but otherwise, workable.
However, the front page is bland; it looks and is set up just like every other site on the internet. I would've liked to see a change done to differentiate itself from the rest of the forum sites on the web.
Everything else is terrific....the people monitoring the threads have been very pleasant and helpful as well.

We need a way to search content from before the DDOS.
We also need a way to view how many posts people have made in a thread.

It would be very cool if we had like a Smashboards Archive forum board where we can see everything from before the DDOS attack.
We didn't lose anything from the DDoS, the search simply hasn't been able to re-index our posts...I've attempted to a few times but kept running into errors. It is something I anticipate getting fixed (eventually...), it took us about 4 months to actually get search fully working/indexed when we switched to Xenforo and we basically went back to step one - any new post is indexed but anything before the DDoS is not. It is certainly annoying and on the short list.

That's a relief! I'm trying to build a cumulative results thread for a certain Smasher but I've been stopped by a myriad of obstacles. I can wait, though. Take your time with it.
Most of Smashboards is indexed by Google so you could actually use the google modifier "site:smashboards.com" to search only within Smashboards.

What about viewing how many posts people have made in a thread?

Should definitely add a non-reoccurring payment option for premium member ship. Not sure why the $3 recurring option is there since the only reason someone would pay $3 instead of $5 is if they wanted it for just a month. Continuing it on after a month is...more expensive...
(btw I don't seem to have 2X the sig space. Perhaps I already had it? Can only do 5 lines)
(also is there no longer a way to hide the premium membership ribbon under your avatar?)
(you should totally add that again)

Yes, should be able to fine

It wont work for me anymore for whatever reason. I use to change the thread title all the time, so unless the way to do so has changed, its not working.
Click Thread Tools at the top of the thread and then Edit Thread
