Www.Informatori.Info

Redneck versions of what I have discovered plowing thru the forum module trying to figure out stuff. Hope it saves folks some time searching for what ain't in the docs:
===

Only an Admin can nuke a post. Don't seem logical compared to ALL the other packages out there but it just be's that way. It would be a good thing to fix that, a really good thing.

===

Once it's posted, it's nailed to the wall unless you're an admin or mod. Users are SOL editing their posts. Weird... Another really good thing if it was fixed....

===

Moderate Button: Don't do squat unless you set the forum up to be moderated which in this module only means somebody has to approve a post before it shows up in the forum. It means moderate but not really, really, really moderate like ALL the other forum packages out there, but just "kinda" like moderate. No Kung Fu to nuke/edit/etc...

===

No way to mondo nuke an entire thread. Don't really understand that one... That would really be a good one to fix.

===

Jump through hoops to nuke a post even if you're God mode. Does God HAVE to give a reason to whack something?

===

No function to prune (ie. age out old messages) forums. Database just gets bigger and bigger and bigger... Kinda like Windows... :P

===

Just trying to be constructive (because I really like DNN) and let others know what I have already found out the long way because it ain't in the docs. Maybe it will save someone the time looking for it....
