A couple of new mods...
« on: December 31, 2006, 09:49:14 PM »
Hello,

I have hacked in  a couple of new mods to the forum software that y'all might notice.

1.  There will be a green or red dot display by a username in threads when you read them  A green dot means the user is currently logged into the forum while a red dot means they're not.

2.  A simple spell-checker has been added when you post.  It links to a spell checker somewhere on the web.  Like it or not, use it or not...  I know, I sure need one!  ;)

Just trying to maybe make it more enjoyable and I REALLY needed the spell-checker!  I have also added a mode where I can prohibit registering from specified e-mail domain addresses, that'll make my bogus user hunting a bit less time consuming as it won't even allow them to register with an account at specific domains after I get the worst offending domains entered.

Thanks Justin!  The little green and red dots are pretty cool!  I've been watching the member list and you have been working hard at it and doing a great job.  Some of the bogus usernames were pretty funny, though. We really apppreciate it!!!  I've noticed the new smilies as well - LOVE 'EM!   [smiley=beehive.gif]

NC Steve - must be your new year's eve ritual??   [smiley=Oscar.gif]

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Nah, Aida, that's not me, although I'll admit to being guilty "back in the day". I gave it up when the ex fell into a bottle and couldn't climb out, meaning I got to raise 2 kids by myself.
I just thought the combo of Justin's new smilies seemed appropriate for New Years! ;)

Thanks, I noticed the logged in/out indicators on another YaBB forum and thought they were kinda cool and found the mod instructions at a website dedicatd to YaBB mods.  The last three smilies Rob found somewhere.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif] I figgered the beehive would be a great one if anybody tried starting a tire or oil thread!  ;)
