Admin Panel

Wow the admin panel looks good if you can I would make it so normal registerd users can post file attachments.

That's controlled by the permissions system. You can set it up however you'd like.

About the new ACP, the only thing that needs to be cleared out is how it's build up. I am using phpBB2 since the version 2.0.0.0 and always have been seeking around were to find a certain option.

Permission management for example isn't set up in the easiest way, it's quiet hard to add permissions to a board with 25+ forums without installing an overall permission MOD.

Depending on the screenshots that are shown here, I can only say that the overview has greatly improved! I like the tab-item navigation sorted in subjects rather then the side-frame that still is confusing.

Keep up the work!

Well, you don't need to configure permissions every day?

Hmm, about the modules, mod authors be able to write a module for the ACP and just sort of 'drop' it into the modules folder right?

If so, will it envolve just one or two lines of code being added to a file so the module is loaded, or won't you need to alter any code at all (I presume the former, unless there's some sort of module loader going to be implimented)?

No, you need to do it atleast once. And even then, doing every forum one for one is a bit of useless if it can be done in just one single page.

You have to add the module (either for ucp, mcp or acp) in the database. This can be done via an SQL statement (many mods require the change of the database scheme anyway, so this can be done too). The other possibility is the great module management via the ACP. There you just have to add the module and the ACP will change the DB for you.

This is what I see in the actual CVS. Please corret me, if I am wrong.

To my knowledge the ACP -> Modules/System section only deals with actual module management i.e your module must contain two functions, install and uninstall these are (I guess!) used to do all the SQL/database work.

I believe in Olympus you can make "presets" of permissions.
