Plugin ideas

finid

I'm starting this thread to use as a placeholder for plugin ideas and suggestions. If you have an idea for a plugin, but you don't have the coding skills or time to make it happen, post it here.

Maybe some other person with the time and skills wil take it up.

To start, here's one:

How about a prettyPhoto plugin? See http://ur1.ca/gf9bs.

This could also be pinned maybe.

I have a couple of ideas, not all of them are crystal clear but I'll get 'em wrote down soon.

@BarveyHirdman

I don't have the privy to pin an article, so the site admin will have to do that.

Regarding this plugin idea, if somebody is willing to work on it, it could be monetized. Think Free and Pro version.

What about a thread prefix plugin? It was mentioned on the admin extra forum as a alternative to sub categories which could work well I think.

@StuartH You have to be logged in first! We just updated it and the message box should now be invisible when not logged in.

It will be really cool to have an "Invite" option in the user profile page, so that admins and other users can invite their friends to join the forum via email.

Anybody working or thinking about working on that?

Anybody thought about a WebRTC integration. To start calling and chatting with other users.
To give you an impression look at https://twelephone.com/

Not sure if anybody is doing this, but it sure will be a great plugin.
