Hoid Slayer He/Him Posted January 15 Posted January 15 So I don’t know how feasible this would be but I was thinking it would be really cool if there were some sort of feature on your profile where you could see like your most popular / most repped posts. Not really important, just something potential that occurred to me. 3

Shatter He/Him Posted January 15 Posted January 15 (edited) mmm. This would be cool. @Chaos. (Yes. I evidently have no self-preservation instinct.) Edited January 15 by Shatter 3

Even if I hide it, I have close to zero doubt that he and probably other admins/mods can see hidden posts and probably edit history, so it would look even worse.

But they are (mostly) chill. I only have *checks* 5 PMs from them... I AM A LAW ABIDING CITIZEN NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG

Not really important, just something potential that occurred to me. I don't know about this, but I'll give the answer that Chaos normally does: They're really bounded by the Invision framework, and also messing with the code is always tough. It would be cool, but it probably won't be happening. Adding features isn't something the mods like to do often, mainly because of how difficult it is. 1

It's not Rep, but you can already use advanced search to find your posts with a minimum number of views and/or a minimum nuber of replies. The SHARDER FAQ has details on using advanced search, you simply search "topics" and add the views or replies filter bottom-center.
Chaos he/him Posted January 16 Posted January 16 I read basically everything in this forum and Tech Support, no need to ping me I do think this would be cool! 3

I suppose I will reiterate what I have often say (and maybe I need to make a boilerplate response for this): We are at the behest for Invision Community for software features. Though theoretically we could create some sort of extension or hook to do this, that costs resources, and has a very real downside. The more customizations that appear, the harder it is to make sure software updates work. Probably a decade or fifteen years ago I'd be all, hell yeah, let's make it happen. We had more customizations from the Invision app store, and we were just out of luck when they weren't maintained. (That Marketplace hasn't existed since 2023, but even prior to that, we were long past the forum golden age where there were spectacular free extensions that existed. The Marketplace had tons of paid things which often required subscriptions for dumb, simple crap.) Most importantly, this really can get us behind on software updates, which happened for years before. So, anyway, if it appears in updated versions of Invision Community, sure. If not, probably not. This is not custom software like Arcanum, so we can only really look at feature requests like, "Yeah, that'd be nice!" That's similar for the Coppermind, and let me tell you, MediaWiki has so many things that would be nice to be different... A quick look at the Invision Community forums and a member's profile shows this is not a thing. We could use more advanced badging/awards system to do some interesting things, I suppose, but it would not do specifically this. I think I ultimately had a lot more time for website tinkering and customization a decade ago, unfortunately, and I was a big force for adjusting things to be perfect (in my eyes). I am incredibly busy these days with like... four different jobs, none of which I can really put on a backburner. And as I alluded to before, the amount of customizations led to huge issues in getting software updates in any meaningful manner. Fortunately, Paleo does a lot of the system admin stuff now, which is good, because I really did not know what I was doing for a long time. 6

You should find a Vin and go like Kelsier in leading a skaa (sharder) rebellion against The Final Empire, Invision Community Suite.

They have a very hard job to do, to be relevant in this decade, when forums have not been relevant in the internet ecosystem for quite some time. They deserve grace 1

Saving it, and updating all its features! or at least theoretically and then everyone gets magic! 2
