Configuration changes made

[Joshstix]

Hi Guys

I'm going to use this thread to document configuration changes that I make to the forum software as we go along. If you come on one day and things aren't working the way they did then check here first to see if it was intentionally changed.

[Joshstix]

Today I have fixed some spelling mistakes

[Joshstix]

I added a section that stipulates that sign up is moderated and the details provided may be checked

[Joshstix]

I have set the default new user post view to be oldest to newest.
I also set the images per post limit to 10.

[Joshstix]

Updated the reputation levels.

[Joshstix]

Turned off displaying the rep power in posts.

[Joshstix]

Added FAQ information about reputation.

[Joshstix]

I set the Calender to be named calender, just not on the bar at the top of the page. I have also configured the calender to display upcoming events for the next 60 days.

Also configured the Calender to show Easter and to notify the board when an event is posted.

[Joshstix]

Set the console only to count posts made in the "tech and conversions" and general car talk sections of the forum towards post count.

This change appears not to be retro-active.

[Joshstix]

Updated the info on the Custom avatar page, informing people that the avatars are moderated on a trust basis and if they abuse it they won't be able to have avatars.

[Joshstix]

Updated the info on the edit your signature page to show that the max size is 5 lines of text on a 1024x768 page and no advertising is allowed.

Added image shack hosting plug in for picture hosting.

[Joshstix]

Adjusted permissions in the sponsors area

I editted the postbit template to remove the post count listing from posts.

I'll look into having this listed in the user profile.

These can be seen if you search for the user in member list. It just doesn't display on the posts.

[admin]

Editted the forum display template to have the sticky's and announcements seperated from the rest of the posts.
