  2. "Topic Break" code for NEWS section

    I often post interviews, news articles, and the like on our front page; however, some of them get to be a bit lengthy. Blogger and other sites have the ability to insert a "jump break" which basically truncates your post on the main page and adds a "Read more..." link beneath the break. Clicking it takes you to the full post.

    Wondering if this type of functionality can be implemented as a forum code, to where you can add the code to a forum post and when it is on the Homepage News, the site code recognizes the break and…

  3. Use Forum post Up Vote counter to generate member Recognition Award

    Our Guild has enabled the Up Vote button for Forum posts. At present the Up Vote count only shows on the individual post. We would like to use the Up Vote counter totals to generate member Recognition Awards by setting count criteria.

    For example, if a post gets 5 Up Votes, the poster would receive a Worthy Post Award. We could create a graphic in our Standard Graphics settings or GL could create a Worthy Post graphic that could be enabled in Site settings.

    Other benchmarks could be set for subsequent Up Vote awards with an upper limit. 10 Up…

  8. In forums show Original Post first, followed by newest to oldest reply

    Love Guild Launch and been with you guys since 2007.

    I would love the ability for an Admin to make the default forum setup show the Original Post at the top, followed by the newest reply and then finishing up however many pages later with the oldest reply.

    This would allow members to see the newest replies on opening a very long thread, rather than having to start with the oldest one and work their way through many pages.

    OR

    Perhaps make it so the first time they view the thread they see it the way it is now, then…

  9. Forums as a widget.

    It'd be nice if we could have our forums be a widget. I'm not opposed to having a forums tab at the very start, with a forums widget already activated on that page. What I'd like to see is forums being operated via a widget so that if we choose to change the layout of our site, we can (for example) have the various navigation tabs we start with be modified into the names of the various games our guilds play, with an exclusive page dedicated to that game wherein our forums widget would be located, to make our sites…

  10. forum posts go to the top instead of bottom

    enable new posts in the forums to go to the top instead of the bottom so that the further back you go the older the posts. i hate having to go the last pages just to see what the newest posts are.

  11. Email Notifications

    I like getting an email notice when I've received a PM, but the message doesn't say who sent the PM! I often get email on my phone, and can't get to the site right away, so.knowing who sent the message is important.

  13. Spoiler Button with SHOW/HIDE

    please for the love of all that is holy!
    add spoiler button capability that allows us to hide everything within the spoiler (including links and images and the like) and it will only show when the button is clicked.

    I do not mean highlighting I mean literally hidden I'm going to link a webpage that has exactly what i am speaking of so it cant be misinterpreted.

    it is so annoying to make a lengthy guide and to have a massive wall of text for subimportant information show always.

  14. Report Post & Like Post buttons

    In forums, it would be nice to have an additional button show up on forum posts that allowed you to "report post" to the forum admin, for example for spam, etc.

    Also, although I realise there is a kind of "this is a nice post" up and down button, I think that could be improved to, say, a thumbs up/thumbs down option, or simply a "like" option (for example of "like", have a look at the posts on http://wow.joystiq.com). It is more obvious what it is actually there for, and I'm pretty sure most people don't even notice the…

  15. Private Messages alert needs to be more visible

    Since the top bar update, I've been missing Private Messages very frequently, requiring the person that sent me the message to ask me if I've read it.

    Simply putting a pulsing orange icon is not enough to really make the item something that you will pay attention.

    My suggestion is to put an alert like system, either like Notification Center on Mac OS X(Alert section on this documentation http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5362?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US) or some sort of Modal.

    I know some users might not like the Modal idea since it's intrusive, so maybe have an option to disable.

    Another idea would be to…

  16. Rename "Post reply" button when quick reply is enabled

    When you have quick reply enabled (as everyone should by default IMO, it's a mandatory forum feature these days), you get a little button called "submit" - and below it, a much more obvious image button labelled "post reply". I've lost count of the number of times I've typed in a quick reply and then hit "post reply" instead of "submit" and lost my reply. If you have quick reply enabled, the button that takes you to the full reply page should be relabelled to something like "switch to full mode".

    (A better option, as per the Wowstead forums, would…

  17. Allow use of GW BBcode even when GW2 is selected as primary.

    Currently the GW BBcode is only functional if the original Guild Wars is selected as the primary game. This can make sharing build ideas difficult for guilds who have GW2 as their primary selected, but still play GW and find the builds posted in forums as raw code. Thank you for you time.

  18. Customise New Sub Forum Posts icon

    Could it be possible to change the New Sub Forum Posts icon. it's currently defaulted to a glowy green dot, which won't really fit my site's theme. Searching the support forums has shown that this functionality has been requested a few times, as far back as 2008!

    Seems odd that it's just about the only icon that cannot be changed, and it stands out like a sore thumb on a heavily customised theme.
