Some new stuff coming in the next release
4/2/2020


As well as the new layout change and the 'My Feed' view of subscribed forums, there are a few other changes coming in the next release.

I have added topic sorting to the forum views


Restrictions can be set at forum level for both Topics and Replies, they can be set to Anyone, administrator & Forum Moderators or Just Administrators


Revamped search page with add functionality
  • Filter by Category
  • Member filter changed to allow wild cards
  • Search term filter changed to allow must include/exclude filters (not enabled for fulltext search)
  • Result Sorting added
Note:
Some of these new additions are only available when using the new layout.

New Email engine and templating system rewrite (because of the email engine change). Forum email now supports sending using both ExplicitSSL (SSLTLS) on port 587 and Full SSL ImplicitSSL on port 465 as well as the non encrypted port 25.

One of the things I have been working towards was a way of embedding the forum into a pre-existing website. The forum is in an iframe, and is passed a special query string parameter that forces it to use a special template when embedded.

More easily configurable right hand column options in page templates
The right hand column is added in the page templates like below
Code:

@section sidebox{
    @Html.Partial("_RightColumn", new ViewDataDictionary(this.ViewData) { { "show", new List<string>() {  "recent", "calendar", "catlist" } } })
}

This bit { "show", new List<string>() { "recent", "calendar", "catlist" } } configures which side-box plugins get displayed and in what order.
The following options can currently be selected.
  • poll - featured Poll
  • recent - latest posts
  • catlist - Category/Forum list
  • photo - Featured image
  • widget - widget
  • calendar - Upcoming events
  • online - Online users
  • files - File downloads
  • posters - Top 10 post graphs
Member post stats side box graphs added

Basically as below, the grayed out part shows the non viewable part of the page, the images I have blanked out will not get downloaded when you open the topic, they will only download when scrolled into view.
