Unlimited Sub Forums <not used on this board as far as i know
Well, I just listed the new features from the Invision Power Board Page
Relative Dates <what exactly does that mean?
Not sure, I think it means that the posting time / date is relative to your time.
e.g. you know what time someone posted something in YOUR timezone.
Threaded mode view <not sure what that means
Linear plus mode view <dito
Go at the top of this page. To the top right, you can see "Outline" "Standard" and "Linear".
Threaded Mode = Outline.
Standard = The way you used to read the forum.
Linear = Regardless which page you are at, you see the first post (usually the question) of this thread at the top.
Now press "Outline":
You'll see a threaded view... much like a newsreader, for example.
I still like linear view best, but the threaded view is useful if you're looking
for a particular answer.
To change back, press "Standard" or "Linear" again.
Ability to perform mod actions when starting polls <???
Hmm... don't know either.
But I just saw that you can Add Polls to an already started topic
And: You can archive your PM box.
You get an Excel or HTML file sent via eMail with all the messages you want,
so you won't have to delete all messages when your PM Box is full, you can
keep them at home
[ACP] Rewritten templating system
[ACP] Mail queue to allow bulk mail to be sent
[ACP] Ability to have members in multiple groups
[ACP] Task Manager to automate processes
allright didn´t understand the last four points,
Well, these are for admins.
but the board system seems to be really improved! If just the design wouldn´t be so bad.....
It's not THAT bad... it's just we're not used to it, yet.
Also, I don't think hando is finished now
The GP smiley is still missing. He just updated everything, worked till sometime at night to reopen it as soon as possible
