Template mod for PhpBB3?

Post by monkeymax »

One for Esmond/Ben/Alex really.

I've been looking for a mod for the forum I'm running, and while doing so I found the following:
Posting Template

Basically it's something that I asked for/suggested a long while ago with regards to For Sale posts - asking that people who put their cars up for sale are asked to put in certain information to ensure the ad has all that's needed. AFAIK, such a mod didn't exist and it was too much work to implement (heck, even I didn't want to do it).
Anyway, think it'd be awesome to have something like this in the new version to have a standard layout for the For Sale ads (particularly for the cars) listing what Mk, revision, engine type, T-bar or not, colour, location, etc, etc, etc...

I know mods can be a PITA to install sometimes, but any chance you can see if this is implementable when you move IMOC over to the new version?

It'll be too much work, along with 99.99% of the other suggestions people come up with :thumleft:

Yep, certainly will consider this one.

We're actually working on the update to phpbb3, but we need to migrate Esmond's Garage, feedback system and the Premium Membership subscription system as at the same time so its not simple.

Good news is that a migration of the basic forums without these does work but takes a couple of hours with the volume of posts we have - but mods like the Garage, Sales feedback aren't available yet for phpbb3 and that is where Esmond and Alex are putting the effort at the moment.
