Re: 2 Level-Announcement-System & Announcements in discussion view
Great idea also peregrine. But i'd prefer a real, related discussions module that could for example show 3+ related article titles below the initial thread of a discussion. It's certainly doable. The main issue is performance, ( sphinxsearch is the best option and creating a cache seems like recreating the wheel),… -
Re: Search-Function for Conversations
As far as I know there is no such functionality. Mixing it into the normal search sounds as if it has to confuse people, so adding it to the conversations page is almost a requirement. I started to write something like that right now, since in the days when I used forums quite heavily, I would have loved to have such a… -
Re: Nested comments
As for ideas, I can share some. I have come to dread multi threaded comments; things get so derailed it is unbelievable, like those dolls with inserts upon inserts. But one-level threading, I can totally appreciate. Some popular platforms address the presentation very peculiarly these days: think Flarum, Discourse and… -

Re: On consistencies - Discussions, Questions, Rate My Link, and possibly few others
My (possibly narrow) point of view is of an end-user. What I observe is that the "standard" discussion starts with a button on the right, has a title, body, etc. Progress bar and countdown "seem" like a different type and they are specified with a special code within the text. The Q&A and Rate my Link which look very… -
Re: Ability to change how output looks when rendering the catagories
Never change existing files! Vanilla can be modified mostly completely without changing files, just by adding files. To answer your question: you can use view overrides. You would need to create a theme and then create a file in a folder that is the same name like the view that you want to override. I'm not 100% sure which… -
SMTP outgoing email not working and how I debugged and fixed it
Hi everyone, For the record, I'm a total PHP newbie, but managed to fix my problem and want to share so that it may be incorporated in future releases. I managed to isolate and fix the problem using the following PHP script to exercise the PhpMailer class used by Vanilla: <?php //set absolute path of phpmailer in forum… -
