Maybe if someone made a damn poll plugin voting would be easier. WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE
I vote for @bentael's 42. Adding some much needed functionality to the acp.

Chris - also from Canada. I've been into computers since before I have memories as I'd always use my neighbours or parents friends whenever we visited.I got my first computer when I was probably around 6 or so. IBM Aptiva, Pentium 166 with 16MB of ram with a 1.6GB hard drive. It had that awful Mwave combo modem/soundcard
From then on almost my entire life was/has been spent on a computer. I was on IRC by the time I was 9, and writing mIRC scripts when I was 11 and it kind of just escalated from there. My only other interest other than computers is cars as well as car audio. I compete in the former every year for sound quality. I guess I'm kind of interested in my wifey as well. And my dog.
I have lots of interests in this industry and there just isn't enough time in the day. Over the past 10 years or so I've started a few companies which are all doing well to this day (but not well enough that I am writing this on a beach somewhere). We do on site IT support for business (we primarily support mac/pc combo offices since no one else can) with one, we do webhosting with another (shared, vps, and dedicated). I do web design and we offer web development with another company. I love all things tech and this industry because it moves so fast that you can never really get bored.
I don't really do much personally, I spend most of the time working. The only games I play are MMO's and I've played them all and I've played them all to the end. Currently raiding in WoW while I wait for the release of WildStar and hoping that WildStar is as good as the betas have felt. Sometimes I go to movies.

I've used a small jQuery library called FitVids.js on projects in the pass and it has worked great.
"ooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooo" is what I said, when I resized my browser on that FitVids page...
Right? It was so damn graceful.
@psychobunny coughcough this is needed muchly.
Am I blind or is there no way to just have an MOTD widget for Lavender?
I essentially just want to use the shoutbox plugin at the top of the category listing page but don't see a widget area for MOTD anymore. Is that only with Vanilla?
@Mr_Waffle I think giving the users the options of both a GUI or simple markdown would probably be the best. To us markdown is easy and makes a lot of sense but in general Markdown is still very new and most users have very little idea how to use it.
Trying to explain to the average forum user how to make a forum poll through markdown could be a nightmare and completely not worth it
I think it can stay as a plugin but come bundled like some of the others come. Nothing wrong with that.
@planner No? It would be bundled with NodeBB - like the current themes are bundled and the @mentions plugin, the markdown plugin, etc.
For anyone who may want to bypass the google cache, you can edit the index.js file and do the following. At line 228ish where it requests the feed, I edited it like so:
function getFeedByGoogle(feedUrl, callback) {
var rsscurtime = new Date().getTime() / 1000;
request('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/feed/load?v=1.0&num=4&q=' + encodeURIComponent(feedUrl) + '?' + rsscurtime, function (err, response, body)
Essentially I just set rsscurtime to unix time, and tacked that on to the end of the URL set in the control panel. It works fine with my feed but of course YMMV.
