Can’t Wait for PHPBB3
18 July 2007 by Mushroom Queen
I was just glancing over the PHPBB website and I saw that it’s getting closer to release. It’s currently on RC3 (released on th 8th and RC2 was released shortly earlier on the 24th of June. I think that things are finally moving quickly and we’ll soon be able to have a forum that is capable of more than before! I looked at the new features that’ll be expected with PHPBB 3 and it sounds so amazing. Check out some of these:
- Set group avatar. I totally vote for the moderator group to have a unicorn avatar.
I don’t know what the other group avvys should be. Maybe we should make a contest for people to develop some. - Signature on profile view. I can’t tell you how useful this would be. It’s a lot easier to check for sigs that break the rules by looking at someone’s profile. The reason being is that someone might have some links to “bad” websites, but because they haven’t posted yet, moderators cannot see their signature.
- Create unlimited subforums. Yay. Now I can bug Shane and Mike to make the “Mushrooms” subforum.
- Create your own BBCodes. I wouldn’t know how to do this, but it just seems too cool.
- Topic merging. I’ve always wanted this. Sometimes, people post topics that are similar or they post multiple topics about the same thing. It’d be so much easier to just incorporate the discussion into one single place.
- Topic history. This also would be nice. I don’t know how it’d work or what the layout would be (I don’t moderate any forums that are on rc2/3 right now, so if anyone knows..send me a screenshot).
You can check out more features here. There’s also going to be a “friend” or “foe” list. I don’t know. I see that as kind of pointless. Usually if you disagree with someone, you still are interested in what they post XD

The friends list is for quick access to sending private messages to the people on it.
The foes list is so non-moderators can mute people (at least for themselves) if spammers come.
I can’t wait ether!

I thought you could already merge topics =/. On 2 forums I moderate they both have “merge” options, I’ve never had the opportunity to use it though xD.

There’s also a setting in the admin panel so quote pyramids cant be made. I’ve played with the RC1 version a bit. I made a skin for it… which shane might use, but as yet I have no idea.
There is very rarely an RC4, so it should go gold in a couple of weeks.

I’ve tryed out RC1 as admin, but I can’t be bothered to try out 2 and 3, but I can’t wait for the proper version, it sounds sweet.

I thought the same as Munky that most of these were already included o.o I guess I like Invision forums better; I haven’t really admined a lot of phpbb forums.
