I would like to put a site suggestion out there. It would be nice to have the 'Viewed Times / Comments Made / Post Comment' bar on the Downloads pages too. The News posts' bar.

It would be nice to easily see comments made for the download page that you're on and easily post a comment instead of searching the forum for the download name to find it's post.

This is a great suggestion but unfortunately it brings with it quite a few coding challenges.

There is no link between the news topic (which is where the comments end up) and the downloads topic (which is where you can download the application) other than the link from the news topic to the downloads topic. So it would be quite easy to display information from the downloads topic in the news topic (since the news topic contains the unique identifier (the link to) of the downloads topic), but it is rather hard to display information from the news topic on the downloads topic because there is no (easy) way for for 'the downloads topic' to identify which news topic is (the latest that is) 'linked' to it.

I'll think about creating a functionality like this, but I don't think it'll be easy. If anyone with some coding experience has any suggestions, by all means go ahead ;)

"subscribe to this thread" option and subscription folders :showoff:

See on the top right of a thread, there's a button called "Follow this topic". That's your subscribing method. ;)

To manage your subscriptions, click on your name on top right and click "Content I follow". :)

Further more, you can go to My Settings > Notification Options and select how and for what you'll be notified.

almost 90% forums i see had option "subscribe to this thread" and u can create subscription folders as ur wish and send subscribed threads to a particular folder.

why to complicate those features B)

These features are implemented by default in Invasion Power Board 3.2, the one we are using. IPB has always been ahead of other forum boards and sets examples for others.

I'm not an expert in subscribing to threads, but if you ask me, IPB's system is quite simple as it can get.

Click the 'star' or 'dot' icon on the far left of the topic (in the forum view, on the index you can just click the last post date), this will bring you to the first unread post (I agree it is well hidden, I couldn't find it for a month either).

No, in all forums that haven't updated to IPB 3.x yet that's where it is ;)

The majority has already/will be upgrading to IPB 3.x at some point though... (I agree this behavior is a little odd, but we're using IPB's products so we're limited by their decisions up to some extent.)

"Like This" button in every post is a new thing implemented in v3.2 that gives +Rep to a person. The number of reps can be found by going to a member's profile or just hovering over his user ID on a post.

As for the Contests, we have one time to time. At the moment we have Current Forum Star. :)

Depending on your Minilyrics skin, there's an "x" (close) button on top right of that message, once you start clicking that x, there will be a time you won't get any free version message nor that text.

It's already there, the << icon is for going to the first page and the >> icon is for going to the last page. (They won't show when you're on the first or last page respectively.)
