    Re: Forum updates

    I added a new plugin which allows a thread's original poster to edit the first post indefinitely with no time limit. I have to activate it on a per-forum basis, but I thought this would be really useful in the Events forum, that way the OP can update information, dates, attendees, etc. Can anybody think of another forum where I should activate this plugin?

    NOTE: This only works for the text of the post, not the thread title. If you want the thread title changed, one for your friendly well-paid CAJ staff members will have to do it.

    I've been doing some optimization to try and speed up the forum. If you see anything that doesn't work or look right, please let me know.


    Thanks,

    I updated the server software and vBulletin. Please check everything out and let me know if you see any issues that need to be resolved.

    I finally figured out what was going on with the forum's email sender-outer (yeah, I made that up)...so the 'contact us', thread update subscriptions, and other forum-based emails should be working now.

    Re: Forum updates

    I also added a 'mentions' plugin which allows you to call a particular person's attention to a post by adding an @ sign before their screen name. Say for instance, I wanted claydo to read this post, I would simply type [MENTION=82]claydo[/MENTION] and he will get a notification that he had been mentioned
