User control panel and option for automatic subscription to threads you post in?

    Definitely the #1 thing I can think of that should be implemented and would most improve the user experience.

    I like the automatic subscription to threads I've posted and replied in, and the subscription area to view them, as well. Tried to find the setting in account options, but it's not there. I turned off notifications altogether, because they're quite annoying.

    I would imagine something like this is toggeable or available as a plugin for vB? I believe Zoklet had this and it was pretty handy.

    Definitely, it's on the list and a high priority

    And in the meantime, in case you missed my thread, you can use the Search functions to call up all new posts in such a way that it shows the forum the post is in, picture-only posts, video posts, blog posts, visitor messages, etc, and sorts them in chronological order - providing you much more than just the standard "Latest Activity".

    example:

    http://niggasin.space/search?searchJSON={"date":{"from":"2"},"type":["vBForum_Gallery","vBForum_Link","vBForum_Photo","vBForum_Poll","vBForum_Text","vBForum_Video"],"channel":{"param":"channelid"},"sort":{"created":"desc"},"view":"","exclude_type":["vBForum_PrivateMessage"]}

    Ok, so auto-subscribe seems to work, if it doesn't let me know (the button may not flip until you reload the page, it can be fixed but unless it really bugs anyone I don't want to waste the time).

    As for a usercp, go to your profile (click your name or there's a "My Profile" link in the dropdown you get by clicking your name/avatar at the top of each page) and switch to the subscribed tab. To my mind that fulfills functionally the same role as the usercp. I guess since things aren't structured as threads you could miss content, hmm. Give it a go, if it's not working I can wire something else up.

    This doesn't seem to work properly, btw: http://niggasin.space/online

    For me it only ever shows two users, me and Merlin.

    Irrelevant to the topic at hand. You should be banneded from your site

    This is a special kind of necro bumping :/
    The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!
