Mail Notification v6
by Mottie
Description
This mod opens a popup to notify you if you have a new mail message. It was written for users who wish to hide their top menu bar (state bar/log in bar). Or if you just want a bigger message telling you that you have mail. I've set it up to open either a growl window (timed popup) or a facebox (popup you have to close).
For more information on the custom variables, please see
this post
.
To style the growl window (pictured above), use the "Growl Window Styling" Mod or refer to
this post
.
To style the Facebox popup window, please refer to
this post
.

Signup Status Color v5
by Mottie

This mod will add CSS classes to the character status, so you can set the color yourself with the CSS and the script will do the rest. Within the script, you can set it to just color the Status column or the entire row. This is what it will look like:

I just tried a few forum searches and they seem to only search the titles of the messages. This doesn't make the search function very useful. Can it be expanded so that it searches the bodies of messages as well?

Is the forum search function
supposed
to search the whole message or just the titles? Perhaps this is a bug?

At the moment it only searches the titles, but we're working on a database change that'll make it possible to put a full text index on the body of posts, as well. It's a major change that will require some downtime and a lot of prep, so there's no ETA at the moment, sorry.

I'd still like to have this happen too. I use forums on other sites all the time and have never found one that would not search the body of texts. In fact, most have advanced options that allow me to search by title, tag, author, body, etc. Here on Guildportal, I frequently TRY to use the search function, get nothing, then have to look around for some time on my own trying to find what I'm looking for.

It's been four more months with no additional news. Aaron, isn't it possible to simply license full-featured forum software and drop it in? We still don't have the ability to adequately search the forums and this is something that has been asked for, on and off, for years. I'd search for the old posts but, well, searching is broken here.
Frankly, searching whole posts isn't even adequate. I read countless forums in which I can search by author name, tag, etc. and I want those features here. We work hard to encourage our members to use our forums and help keep the site busy, yet the forums are sub-par. I don't say that to be mean (I like you guys) but the term is accurate.
Finally, as an admin, PLEASE add the ability for me to move a single post from one thread to another. At the moment, we can move whole threads but some members occasionally post something in the wrong thread. My only options are to ignore the post or to delete it. We can move whole threads but that doesn't solve the problem, I just need to move the individual post.

A lot of the site speed improvements Aaron is working on are also part of the site search preparations.

This really should be a whole new topic
but something Aaron will look at.

Sigh... Now it's been two MORE months. The forums REALLY need a major overhaul. Please see my post above about the inadequacies. Is it not possible for GuildPortal to simply license a better forum module and drop it in?
