Great stuff....

If you are taking notes, what about a "like" button for each post or my boat forum has a "THANKS" button right next to each post #.

Might save on lots of Thank you posts??? Not sure how else it might be helpful, but I do like to say Thanks sometimes.

Oh yeah, one more thing.... can you automatically re-orient sideways and upside-down photos and videos? Pipe dream I know, but someone had to say it.

Andy, I know nothing about the tech side, can barely use the stuff sometimes, but everything you do is appreciated. I would be another willing to chip something in.

This site is such a part of many lives, we are grateful.

- Add member tagging using @Username
Tagging a member by using their username in a post with the @ prefix will send them a notification with a link to the post where they were tagged.
This is a simple and easy way to get someone's attention to a post or topic.

...


Well, after 3 years, i got one of them things done ...
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Use as such:

This is some text that simulates a post. In this text you can "tag" other members by adding an @ in front of their user name.
Like @914world for example, which will create a notification for that member and they will see it when they login or refresh the site.


The user you tagged will see that they have been tagged and can go to their user CP and find a link to the post where you tagged them.

So now I can @mention the likes of @ValcoOscar @Larmo63 and the rest of the SoCal crew? This is going to be way more fun now.

Looks like there is a problem with usernames that have spaces *and* the first part before the space is also someone else's valid username.

Case in point, "914 7T3" above will notify user "914" since that is indeed a valid username here.

I'm thinking about adding some extra smarts where you can wrap a username in quotes to indicate that you want the whole name evaluated as one.

Ok, this should work now ...

For usernames that include spaces, please wrap them in quotes as shown below.

Will old private messages, pictures and threads still be intact and accessible? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

When Club NARP switched servers, a lot of my oldest private messages, including those from members no longer with us, disappeared. And some of the thread pictures disappeared as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
