I'm using Vanilla for this forum. It's nice and lightweight but requires extensions for almost all forum functionality. Let's keep a running list of feature requests, suggestions, bugs, etc and I'll get to them one at a time.
I dont think the "participated discussions" filter works, nothing happened when I clicked it
@Frack Truck and @Dram
When i click "Participated Discussions" Im taken to the categories page. Hard to tell if it's working since I've participate in every thread.
@joel

Ditto that.
ETA-And apparently I can't use the quote function...is it not enough just to hit the quote button, or am I just challenged in some way?

Ahhh, thanks!
ETA-Ok, now could someone kindly walk me through how to add a thread? Thanks!

Thanks Dram!
Really minor:
So, if you look at where I quote Dram in the Nietzsche thread, the space before the emphasized word (there in the original post) is gone in the quote. Also saw it where Dram quoted Flanked in the Mass Erect thread: just before a link a space dropped out. Dunno if it's a Vanilla thing you've got no control over...

Posted By: dougIs there a way to get notifications of new posts for individual threads/discussions? I see I can get notifications for threads I start, but I'm wondering about getting them on other ones.
Request:
Look down at the bottom of the thread. See that Back to Discussions link? Could that "Back to *insert threads category here*"?
I guess I'm just used to vB/phpBB style boards. Thanks.

Bah! Don't worry about it. I'll just figure out how, or get somebody to code, a greasemonkey script to do it!
Posted By: ArcysPosted By: DiggitYour forum needs a book discussion area :(
I second this motion.
May I also suggest a music discussion area?
Posted By: ArcysIs anybody having problems with Private Messages?
Posted By: joelPosted By: ArcysIs anybody having problems with Private Messages?
Yeah, they seem to be broken. No sure what the deal is yet. You can see them in your box, but you cant read them.
What mod's do you have installed?
I'll try and replicate the problem on my web server and see what I can find out.

I FIXED IT!
Actually I corrected my stupid ass mistake. Private messages are still borked, though.
@Arcys
if you want to help, I need to know how to get the Vanilla Private Messages extension (which transforms "Whispers" into real private messages) to work with mod_rewrite Friendly URLS.

Nevermind. Fixed that too. Private Messages should be working for everyone now. Please let me know if they arent.
Signatures work now too. Posting this link so i remember what I did to fix it in the future.

Is there a way to remove "Format comments as" and force all comments to be posted as HTML? Additionally, can we get the formatting bar to appear on new private messages?

Posted By: joelMight be able to force html on comments but not on the PM's. PM's is a hack for Vanilla and doesnt currently support the quicktags, HTML or deletion.

Is there a way to add a "view posts since last visit" feature? If not, no big.

Posted By: FerrosIs it possible to get the categories tab turned into some form of sidebar for the forums so that it's easier to skip between them?Never go with a hippie to a second location.
I don't know if something like this addon would be useful to you. It cross posts between Wordpress and Vanilla. I don't know how well it works. This way a forum thread could act as the comment thread for a blog/comic post.

This is by no means a show stopper or anything but I keep getting this when I post.
A fatal, non-recoverable error has occurred
Technical information (for support personel):

My Post goes through just fine. But I thought it might be something you'd like to be aware of.
