User Requests

Add modifications and other things that you would like to see in V3:

Added

  • Amailer: Merge posts comands for mods
  • Amailer: Tutorial rating system
  • Cervantes: Quick Reply box
  • Martin: Add an RSS feed option for various forums. (Can you say awesome?) Yes ADDED but bugy
  • Martin: Timed bans. Like, so I can ban someone for three days and when they login it'd say You have been banned (by Martin) for whatever reason. There is <x> much time remaining. Then I wouldn't have to feel so guilty.
  • Martin: Get rid of the stupid 'You have a message!' sound that plays and makes the page layout go nuts. ADDED in v2 as well
  • Rizzix: Allow for moderator feedback: aka tutorial rejection. This will help improve the quality of tutorials available on compsci.
  • Amailer: (Maybe) create a system similar to Gallery2 A image system like it has be added but not that.

In development

  • Hacker Dan: Automated secuirty systems
  • Martin: Fix firefox glow May not be possiable
Then can we just get rid of it, or at least disable the colours for the name that are impossible/difficult to see on real web browsers (such as white)?
--Martin 22:47, 5 February 2006 (PST)
  • Tony: wiki like bbcode linking
  • Cervantes: Link to Bit Log in profiles (only visible to that user, such as Attachment Control Panel, or mods)
  • Cornflake: Tutorial link to wiki Tutorials page
  • Gandalf: Time of last log in, on the profile page.
  • Hikaru79: Not having edits, count towards your post/minute timer (so you can edit posts right after you made them if you noticed a problem).
  • Martin: Registration that registers you both on the wiki and compsci.ca with the same account.
  • rizzix: List users by rank, where the rank is the bits/posts ratio.
  • rizzix: Support for user projects: Homepage, CVS, Bugtracker, Development timeline graphs, etc. Partly Added, the CVS part, partly
Subversion, not CVS... please.
--Martin 22:47, 5 February 2006 (PST)
Acuatly it is subversion not CVS that i added, my bad =p

Considering

I like it in thereoy but it could causes the bot problems we had b4 to come back. Hacker Dan--24.109.165.77 14:38, 5 February 2006 (PST)
A bits log for shure but i don't know about making a comeeting section for every bits chage, i think that is more for what PMing is for. Hacker Dan--24.109.165.77 14:38, 5 February 2006 (PST)
  • rizzix: Support for user project bounties.
  • rizzix: Improved award system. Make the awards a little more visible, i.e. not hidden deep within the user's profile.
It would be cool if at the top right of your post (to the left of the edit button) there was a list of clickable 16x16 icons representing the awards. Each award could have a description attached to it, like - 'awarded to so and so for winning this contest on this day.' Probably kind of time consuming to add though.
Martin 00:31, 1 February 2006 (PST)
Cool maybe but it whould make the posts to corwed with infromation and start looking bad, esptaly if some users had many awards
--24.109.165.77 10:19, 4 February 2006 (PST)
In that case, it could be the most recent five awards or whaever.
--Martin 02:50, 5 February 2006 (PST)
In the profile maybe, but right on the persons posts seems a bit much. Tho i could posbliy make a system for the user to put them in there sig. Hacker Dan--24.109.165.77 14:38, 5 February 2006 (PST)
Instead, maybe just a single trophy button with a number beside it showing the number of trophies that the user has. Like: Y(3) (with the Y being a picture of a trophy or something)
--Martin 16:49, 5 February 2006 (PST)
  • rizzix: In-place post editing. That is, display the whole page as it would normally show up when viewing posts, but make the post marked for editing, editable. ( hint: AJAX )
AJAX is gr8 and all but can some times overly complicate things. Hacker Dan--24.109.165.77 14:38, 5 February 2006 (PST)
It makes things simpler on the user end. (c'mon stop complaining :p) Of course, no rush here, you can safely move it to V4 :)
--rizzix 19:14, 5 February 2006 (PST)
  • rizzix: A WYSIWYG editor, for those who don't like using bbcode or wiki
  • rizzix: Improved tutorial writing system: provides the ability to work on tutorials in offline mode, (a publishing system). The ability take a tutorial offline, edit it, improve it, and re-publish it. Force all tutorials to be approved by any moderator before it is displayed online. Not going to happen unless some one whonts to write the offline software and backend script to handel post uploads
That is not what I meant. By offline I mean you take it off display, and put it into a Tutorial box or something. It is basically a publishing system. Do reconsider.
--rizzix 11:39, 5 February 2006 (PST)
I am considering it, tho it may make things more complicated. --24.109.165.77 14:32, 5 February 2006 (PST)

Rejected


Requested

  • rizzix: Give the tutorial's author bits/month for x number of years, based on the rating his tutorial has received (since we already have the rating system implemented). This will help improve the number of quality articles we have here on compsci, and will truly reflect the rank of the user.
  • Martin: When editing posts, default to silent edit when it's someone else's post, but to a normal (tagged) edit when editing your own posts.
  • Amailer: Since you guys are removing the edit button because you don't know what the origional content was, how about making a system, similar to wikies which has the edit history? No need for it to be able to un-do it all, but yeah, you would be able to check what has been edited. (you can just put the diffrent versions insted of the + and - thigns)
  • Gandalf: An easy way of quoting multiple people so that it shows their name above the quote (ie. one solution would be the quote button, except make it show in the "Topic Review" below the "Post a Reply" box).
