Feature Requests

@helltux Here you go.

@julian hmmm, it does, however it's not something I read every time as I didn't think it would go into another topic. It's quite a rare occurrence, had I of replied to a different post, it probably wouldn't have happened.

@marcos2 All done!

@nik This was the board I tested it on. I'm not sure if @julian can shed some light on this as something isn't right with your experience and I'm not sure what would cause these things to happen. It's not your build of NodeBB, it's not one browser or the other as it happens on both Desktop & Mobile, the only thing left is your internet connection, but I don't know whether xhr-polling or websocket issues would cause it.

That menu system is sick!

@a_5mith For what it's worth, I really like your suggestion, a lot. +100.

@a_5mith no problem this is just an idea for a feature...

@julian .header .header-topic-title { display:none; } ??? But in all seriousness, it seems like something that wouldn't really be missed. On mobile you only see 14 characters of a title anyway, and on desktop you've got the title of the topic in the tab, and on the address bar. Plus in terms of SEO, it doesn't really help nor hinder as it only appears when you've scrolled down the page, so the SEO would come from the title being to the right of the avatar, or even from the breadcrumbs.

@julian It's a bit of a roundabout way of creating them, but it works.

Q & A while registration Account registration approval Ask a question with option to choose category. I know these has been discussed before. Just wanted to have it in a thread as these are a bit important these days due to spam attack.

@psychobunny said: You mean like this? https://community.nodebb.org/user/林林林林林 Most forums have figured that problem out already like this. You could indeed just disallow non-English characters, but considering there's even non-English TLDs, that might be a bit too Web 2.0 ("Web 2.0" meaning "overused buzzword" as well as "far, far into the past") As long as your letter-to-image thingmajicky supports unicode, there shouldn't really be any problem. Though if some essential piece of core technology for some reason doesn't, you could always just store it as punycode. (that's how they got IDNs to work for domain names)

@helltux Pretty much whatever you might need, it should allow you to set an open board and allow anyone to post to it, or create groups of users (think friends list) whom can then have their own board and all that sort of stuff. Anythings possible really.

Yeah I agree, maybe we could move pagination into the post bar: [image: e6L3Wfm.png] That would make it not look too bad since its the same on the top and bottom

@julian That would be awesome, Julian. As @KnownSyntax said, it is simple things like that that makes it easier to present NodeBB as a solution to other moderators and users. The engine is already head and shoulders above rest.

@markkus No prob.

I've seen some demand for this as of late. It would be a pretty massive overhaul so I can't promise you a definite timeline on this as we have a ton of other things to get out for 0.5x next month, but will keep it in mind in future
