Bradley,

You'll still have the same favorites and everything else in the UBB panel, and parts of what you're saying aren't a way I would want to go about doing that for vB. For me this is less a question of whether it's possible than it making sense to add in the way you're suggesting. But I'll still bring it up after we're finished with a few other issues.

Also, those of you who mentioned you may have a problem if 2+2 stopped using a forum subdomain should be pleased to know that we did decide to keep using one.

Ryan,

Because of the sheer number of posters who use 2+2 from work (when they shouldn't be [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]), I thought you might find this vB.org template modification useful:



If your boss comes in, click "Panic" and you're redirected to whatever web page you're supposed to be viewing. The addon lets each user specify their own exit URL.

Judging by the responses about forumserver in this thread alone, a lot of posters have day jobs and most of them would probably love the mod.

I for one cannot browse 2+2 were it not for the forumserver url. I cannot access twoplustwo.com from work.

Thanks. I'll tag it and give the idea a look later this week.

Sorry if I'm not understanding this correctly, but after the switch happens would a link to an old UBB post still function or will you be changing the URL in such a way that everything is going to be broken?

I ask because I'm working on building a collection of links on del.icio.us. so if forumserver.twoplustwo.com (or archivesever) is no longer going to link to UBB (because you've moved the UBB archive to a different location) I'll be very [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

(either way I'm still [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] about moving to vBulletin, but would be really bummed if I did all that work for nothing).

Thanks,
FB

Ratings would be fantastic in the strat forums but stupid everywhere else.

They'd be very useful in Legislation as well.

How much space for private data will each user be allotted? Does vBulletin have a KeePM equivalent?

[/ QUOTE ]

vBulletin has a one-click ability to save your PMs as an XML, CSV, or text file.

Maybe not as useful as how KeePM puts them all in a separate file, builds a browsable HTML index and so on, but it is available right out of the box.

If people really clamor for it, I'll explore an extension or rewrite of KeePM to interact with vBulletin. But for now, no immediate plans.
