phpBB 3.2 Discussion

will be useful how cosmetic that each user could set from his UCP-->Board preferences-->Edit display options, If is available, choose preferred profile position: left or right (or above?). And the admin can set from ACP what is the profile position by default.

[statm1]

Naa. I think the profile position should be up to the style author.

Make it so that when a user has a user note that moderators/admins will be informed of it when the user is posting by a small icon or so.. It will make the usernote more useful then they are now.

Deleting a style is completely different than deleting the template/theme/imageset.

You have to remember that other styles can use the same template/theme/imageset, and, IMO, deleting them is rather pointless...

Yes, that true, but what about if you install a style to see if it match with your need, you never going to use the imageset/theme/template of the style that you are install just for a demo.
Perhaps a check box with if you would deleted the hole style components , and maby a check if other styles use the imageset/theme/template of the style that you would deleted , so the administrator can choose what he want to deleted, and if it is possible to deleted it.

Sorry if this has been said before, but are the phpBB 3.1 SVN files any different from the 3.0.0 release? How much work has been started?

Try this:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=29327&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

Theres been alittle work done on it. PHP4 support is already gone. But most everything so far has been backported into what will be the 3.0.1 release except for support for PHP4 obviously. Theres been some database work as well as performance enhancements to make viewforum load alot faster. Thats about it so far. But its very,very early in 3.1 development. I wouldnt say they are even close to the amount of work they are going to put into 3.1.

PHP4 was EOL'ed at the end of 2007, with even critical security fix support ending in August 2008, and PHP6 is due out sometime later this year. Those still on PHP4 really should upgrade.

Alot of that was moved to 3.0.1dev at the same time it was commited to 3.1.. So very little of it is 3.1 exclusive.
