Well by adding a hook onto new comments, the style author can make a decision to style thme seperately or not... Perfect solution really. If you'd rather use the yellow fade thing then go ahead, and just don't differentiate the two types of comment …
I think he's wanting to add an entirely new menu. I need the same thing on a site I'm developing, and so will tackle it when that moves ahead, but that may not be for a month or so, so won't be much use if in a hurry ._.
In case anyone is confuse…
It's released under the GPL I believe, so, I think the answer is no. However, given my tiny amount of knowledge regarding things like this, I wouldn't take my answer without it being backed up (or confirming the license type and reading it)
Given that Google is - and has been for a while - smart enough to deal with any nasty urls we throw at it, the reason I support the purty urls is purely from a usability perspective. I'd rather be presented with the link...

Provided there was a clear way to opt out, then I think that'd make a fantastic feature for the board. Being able to track just how widely Vanilla is being used would be awesome!
I would rather it was kept in a flat file. It is far quicker to include a PHP file with a list of variables and values in it, than it is to access your database for every single page hit.
Unless I misunderstood you of course...
I ended up reformatting my system after everyone's response to the issue was "omgwtf, we don't know what it's doing". So, I am now the proud owner of a shiny PHP 4.3, and thus not suffering from this.
Upgrading to a new version is generally prett…
Well, there are 2 reasons I would deem this unneccessary and/or damaging (we'll come onto possible in a moment):
Alt+S is currently used for the "Search" link, which seems like a more natural use for it in my mind.
You can just tab+enter, or if yo…
Just to answer the % who have it enabled question...

The Counter has it at 95% of users with 1.2+, so plenty!
Out of curiosity, what is the benefit of a list of the most recent comments rather than the most recently updated discussions? Surely having it all out of context would just be a bit wacky?
@lament:
Yes, that's what I was trying to get at. I figure it is relatively easy to pull off.
@vinay:
I definitely would want it to have its own output, not the same as the forum. Especially since I'd want the first comment in the "blog" di…
This is exactly what I want for a site I am building currently... and also what I've tried to explain (possibly not very eloquently) in 2 other discussions so far.
/me goes digging again...

Mark had to disable whispering on this installation due to server overload. It's a shame, because it would be an awesome feature for the demo forum, but that's life!
You can also use F6 to get to the address bar, but that's kind of beside the point. Yes, accesskeys come with a whole host of problems of their own, but, for people who would have issues caused by having the script pick up usual keys (such as lament…
The code required to extend Vanilla into a blog would (I think) be fairly minimal easy to write. The only major obstacle is locking starting discussions in certain categories to certain roles, and then you just make a category named "blog" and only …
The reasons why swapping this around wouldn't be a super plan were covered in another thread.
/me digs around a bit...

Enjoy!
I was thinking the exact same thing...
That avatar just ends up real annoying after about 0.34 seconds. Sadly, the only solution is to prohibit (or block) gifs entirely, which is crazy since there are non-animated options out there.
However, a…
@lament:
Yes. If you tried to find a "j" with that feature, you would suddenly find yourself on a different page!
I think it would be wise to advance the script a bit in the following ways:

My hosting gives me an IP, and it also gives me a subdomain to boot! On top of that, I've somehow managed to collect 7 domains on there so far, but then it is a virtual machine so I get complete admin access.
I do think that having a subdomain of…
You guys have it all wrong! You can have a multiple-option single-response question presented with checkboxes, it allows for both to be selected!
No
Yes
Instead, use radio buttons...
No
Yes
On the note of required fields, would it be possible to turn off the need to read the terms & conditions? If they have to tick a box agreeing to them, then you have covered yourself from a legal stand point, whether they read them or not, and it…
Using its own style class would be by far the best approach. That way it remains unobstrusive, and doesn't end up clashing horribly with other themes!
You can simply add a class to the existing classes:
function toggle_discussion (discussion)

Check for any white space outside the tags in the extension file. The errors you are recieving are caused by content being sent before all headers have been sent. Headers are usually sent after posting information, to act as a redirect normally.
