Thank you Allan it's nice to see quick responses. I have a few more suggestions/work arounds:

1) On another FB forum when the member creates a post or responds to one it automatically is posted to their wall. Is this or will this be an option? Or does the subscribe feature do this? I can't see it not being one since it is already implemented in other forum apps. This option is vital for the viral spreading of ones forum.

2)A work around for mass message may be allowing us to use the member list to create a group. In FB we can post to our groups. If that is not possible after we get the ability to see out memberlist we could manually create a group and invite them but it would be easier if it could be done through the app.

3) also whenever you add an image/video or link the actual code appears on the bottom of the screen which you have to scroll down to (if you even know) and cut and paste. It should simply insert the code where it was initially. Also if you highlight text it should automatically insert that code in the field you should not have to type it again.

4) similar to #3 If you click on the B button to bold text you should simply highlight it with your mouse cursor select the B button and it should insert the code. The pop up box is just confusing ESPECIALLY when it adds the code at the bottom of the screen.

This I think is another BIG point. Visitors do not want to have to do a lot of cut and pasting, scrolling around. We want our visitors to have a comfortable experience not a frustrating one.

5) we should be able to edit others posts as admins. This way we can *** profanity, spell correct if needed or insert code if the poster did it wrong.

6) sometimes the bottom of the forum is cut off (multiple browsers) and when you try to post the buttons are past the bottom of the page which you cannot scroll to and then you are stuck neither able to post or to cancel out and you have to refresh the page.

If you folks are committed to making this the best app you can I am committed to helping you do that.

First of all, thanks for the suggestions.

1. I am working on this one at the moment. Whe had this feature in previous versions. No problem.

2. Actually second one is possible. You can see the member list and then you can create a group.

3. Done this one.

4. Done..

5. Will be done..

6. Could you please let me know the URL of the page?

Thanks again for helping us make forum better,

OFFLINE

Thanks,

Hi Allan and follow ups on the above questions?

Also here's some more suggestions:

7) We need a better editor there  is no center tag button, no text color or size button, smilies, basic stuff an editor should have

8) The youtube button should simply allow you to post the whole link in. Cuting and pasting the XXXXX out is VERY confusing for newbies.

9) A list of Forum codes that will work i.e

10) Ability to add our own brand logo on the main screen like this:

OFFLINE

BTW I just purchased 6 months of add free to support the forum.


Also invite friends would be MUCH better if you could invite groups instead. I have a group of 200 martial arts friends separate from my overall friends. So for me to click on each profile would take forever vs simply inviting my entire group.

I work around this by posting an overall invite to the group but doing it from the forum would be nice.

7. left, center, right, and justify buttons are available now. The others will be added soon.

8. Fixed this one a long time ago. You can simply paste the whole Youtube URL.

9. Do you mean BBCodes?

10. Please visit forum admin panel and click the link "Activate my Banner".


Group invite might not be possible but I am on it. Thanks,

OFFLINE

Yes BBC codes

Also I did activate my banner but I am not sure how to proceed after that.

I see a box say I could use Iframes, htm etc. But when I use html it simply appears a code on top of the forum.

My banner is here:
www.warrior-scholar.com/banner.jpg

Thanks

OFFLINE

You can use a code like this: <img src="www.warrior-scholar.com/banner.jpg">

OFFLINE

Please don't forget to save your banner code.

Great job! I have another suggestion. I notice when i post a link to a forum post on my facebook page I see this:

Create a New Topic | Warrior-Scholar Facebook Forum
http://apps.facebook.com/fbulletin/new_t...
fBulletin is a special forum software developed for social networks. You can add forums to your pages and websites.

It would be much better if it snagged some of the posts title instead.

OFFLINE

You need to copy and paste the exact URL of the topics. For example try this:
https://apps.facebook.com/fbulletin/allan_some_questions-363404.html

OFFLINE

Ah thanks. Is this something you will get around to making easier? What I mean is for a newbie they usually will simply cut and paste the page they are on. I guess if the 'like' and 'share' options are up then it will automatically  post on their wall.

How close are we to actually seeing the 'like', 'share' and automatic posting to members walls when they post?

OFFLINE

From now on, when users created a new topic in forums, the link below will show up.
If users click it, the topic will be shown on users timeline.

That's great Allan. How's about a like and share button too? The more viral we can make our pages the better.

Like and Send buttons have been added to threads. One is at the top and the other one is at the bottom
