Plugin contest Requests

6 . Q & A page
Turns NodeBB into a Stackoverflow style Q&A module. Literally it is the same. There will be a custom home page with option for user to ask a question and when clicked on Ask a Question people will be asked to select a category in which the question will reside. But user can interact it with it in front end itself. Nobody cares these days to find appropriate category and sub category to ask a question. They like one click solution. So categories and sub categories could made available as tag cloud which users can select from.

@meetdilip my custom header plugin allow you to do this. Just place it on body in selector and do some CSS magic.
That is nice to hear @esiao . But would it be nice to have something like one click upload for default theme ?

Maybe sum up all the requests in the OP?

Global Announcements
As an admin, the ability to create a new topic that shows up on all categories until viewed once, or permanently until a certain period of time has elapsedI was seconds away from adding this as an issue for core, then I realized this is potentially plugin territory. I hacked a similar idea in last month via the Custom JS/CSS ACP on this forum for the CMS critic nomination stuff, so imagine that it should be doable as a plugin itself.

@psychobunny Global stickies would be a good extension to the existing ones. Not that people ever read stickies, I've always found they get drowned out and glazed over.

Yeah 50-50 on if this should be a core option or not. Let's see how this pans out, if anybody does decide to take it on as a plugin then
My main concern is how would the UX work in the composer

Best way I can think of would be to have a screen pop up when you click pin topic with a checkbox to "Make Global Sticky" or, if it's unticked, it just appears in that category.
It's probably bad UX as the whole point is to minimise screen options, but seems like a better way than adding pin topic & global pin topic to the Tools menu.

A very important spam cleaning feature came into my mind.
Delete all topics / posts by particular users. Helps a lot when you are away and spammer fills your forum with posts. Individual cleaning takes a lot of time. Bulk deleted all topic / posts please ..
