Sounds good to me. Though if you do try to drive support for source control, please allow for the choice of public source control. I currently use google code to host my addons, and not currently with git.

Just posted this pull request: https://github.com/vanillaforums/Garden/pull/1497 For those who don't wait for releases, merry christmas :)

Note: I realize this isn't a once-size-fits-all solution, but I wanted to throw this out there for anyone else who is having the same problem.

Recently (as of late August, according to the activity log on my forum) there has been a rash of bots signing up on my forum and setting an activity message in what I can only think is an attempt to increase page ranks for certain urls. I do have re-captcha turned on, but there seem to still be quite a few bots that make it through, using all sorts of different email addresses.

I didn't notice it until a few days ago, though, because I've never really found much use for the activity section of the forum... and often end up missing messages sent to me from other users. I suspect they were counting on this... so, I decided to foil their filthy plans.

I've set 2 routes in my dashboard:

activity -> /discussions    permanent
profile -> /activity /profile     permanent

I then set this CSS in my theme:

.Menu .Activity, .Tabs li.Activity, .Profile form.Activity { 
  display:none !important; 
}

To hide the activity link at the top, you need this change: https://github.com/vanillaforums/Garden/pull/1453

That's it :)

@peregrine I guess :)

I try to help out where I can, though php is not my favorite and I don't know it that well. (If the nilla folks are ever interested in doing a java port with OSGi plugins and stuff... I would totally be a huge contributor to that. I really think it could solve a ton of the problems with translations and stuff)

le sigh... Maybe @Todd just think's my bird is cute (he's not wrong)

Hehe, cool. I'm looking forward to it.
