Oh, there are a few little things I was thinking of that I knew XenForo wouldn't have, but have not been covered yet...
One I can think of now is the "title in post" way MyBB worked for threads. Changes to thread-titles could be viewed over the course of posts in a thread, as each post automatically included the thread's title at that point in time--and while an almost never-used capability, it was even possible to edit that field in a post directly so that it had something different from what the thread title was at the time. But every post within a thread containing that thread's title at the time of posting is something that I would personally miss if we go without it, and...I don't think it would be a difficult add-on to the forum software? If it's more than a simple implementation, then I wouldn't press much for it, our wonderful webmaster Vekseid has done so much already, but it is a MyBB feature-request I have if it is possible.
Actually sort of related to the above request, but if it -is- possible to do the above thing of thread-titles-in-posts, then I would also request if it's possible to include "title icons" like we used to have as well. It was something not many people used, I only really 'discovered' it in the last few months, but it was a really neat thing I liked and started using for PMs (particularly things like "questionmark", or "i-for-information", or even just smiling-face and super-happy-face, but I also used others from time to time). Also would be the primary use of actually being able to change what the thread-title-field inside a post most commonly had when it was used, people putting special "title icons" into specific posts within a thread. Would be a cool thing to have back, if possible.
Second request; I don't know if there are already any plans for it or if it's already been deemed unfeasible, but if it's possible to get a "private notebox" back, that only the person using it can see and can be filled up and edited at any time, that would also be awesome, another underutilized feature that I only discovered the value of around the end of last year ^^; (in fact, if we could actually have -multiple- "notes" in one collection, each separately title-able and editable, that would be awesome. If not, I can just keep using Conversations-with-myself that came from converting "PMs sent to self", as slightly messy as that gets since I'll have to keep adding new posts in my self-Conversations since editing old messages in a Conversation has a time limit. Possible, but not ideal.)
Third request: smilies. I knew smilies would be changing from MyBB to XenForo, I didn't know they'd also change from XenForo 1 to XenForo2 (apparently the XenForo forums I am familiar with are still sticking to significantly-modded 1.0, this whole 2.0 thing is new to me), but they all look nice in their own way and have value, and I know that it -is- possible to add "custom smilies", so...could we include all the old MyBB smilies, -and- the XenForo 1.0 smilies, into our current collection? Requesting that if possible.
Fourth request; I don't know if I'd actually use this personally, and it's not exactly a "MyBB thing", but as the old Buddy List was private, I can imagine people who might want this; could it be possible to implement a feature to optionally hide one's "Following" and/or "Followers" list? (perhaps with the same "All Visitors", "Members Only", "People you Follow", and "Nobody" scheme that existing privacy features already have, if that can be done?) Some might not like to 'advertise' that sort of thing with it visible.
Fifth request; XenForo 1.0 had a "more options" button when making a post in either a thread or conversation, that opened a new tab/window with just the post to be worked on. It also had a button for switching from the WYSIWYG editor to a pure BBcode editor. Both of these things appear to be missing from XenForo 2.0. Please bring them back if possible!
There might have been one or two other things, but that's all I remember right now. If I recall more later, I'll drop them here as well. Thank you again for all the work you've done for this place already Vek, you can't be thanked enough! ^.^
