2017-01-10 at 9:56 PM UTCNice work! I am working on a forum software myself, only really hobbyist purpose though. For the purpose of getting up my php and sql knowledge more. But here's some suggestions.
Would be cool to have:- Username above avatar, instead of under it. Keep admin/mod/member status under it instead
- Display some userstats in a box under the avatar.
- Show the subforums in a list/table/flexbox instead of current "dropdown" menu.
- No google recaptcha, use something else (… that doesn't belong to google, frankly I don't trust google.) like GraphComp 3d captcha.
- Formatting options such as bbcode or markdown.
But if we are talking about some even cooler features, I think it could be cool to have:- Bcrypt algorithms for password.
- Thank feature or anonymous reputation points which can be given and taken from users (see evilzone forums).
- Some kind of smaller post feed with the last x posts displayed.
Well I probably have even more ideas, but it is best to get the basics down first. -
