Sorry it took so long. I thought it wasn't working on my test site, but it actually was!

The extension was originally written as "Thanks for the post" instead of "Like". I have changed that, but if you notice any awkward wording anywhere related to likes, please let me know and I'll fix it.

No apology needed....you have a life too lol! You can't get to everything immediately. I appreciate all you have done so far for this site, you're awesome! I will let you know if and when i see something weird, but so far so good!

@Geek1 this is added now, too!

Last one for now... you can now add a flag to your info by going to ucp.php?i=ucp_profile&mode=profile_info.

Obviously, this is self-chosen and not necessarily accurate.

Flags do not display to people who are not logged in.

Feel free to make more suggestions if there's something you'd like to see here! Whether it is something from the old site or not.

Just to address a few things from the old site that I've already looked at...

Shoutbox: I can probably implement this pretty easily if people really want it, but would rather just have the discord for chat, rather than having a half-assed but more visible chat-that-isn't-actually-a-chat here.

Blogs and Clubs: I do not believe there is any way to implement these as they were on the old site - the downside of using free software instead of expensive and not sustainable. If people really want this functionality, we can probably work something out, but it isn't going to look the same.

Naughty forum/club: We can look at bringing this back in the future, but I'm not feeling ready to implement something requiring more security like that yet.

Personally I’m with you on the chatbox—we have discord for that.

Moon, here's my Christmas wish in 2023. I wish that we can have a blog extension or like a form of a diary (?). The owner of the blog/diary can make it visible to the public, to the site members or selected few. There's an option to enable or disable comments, too. The last two features are probably a push but who knows, it might be possible :)

I wish.

I wish.

I wish that my wish comes true...

This is something I would like to implement, but do not see any existing way to do so. I'm basically limited to features that someone has already created, as I'm nowhere near good enough at programming to write my own.

I think the best we could realistically do is have a blog forum, and each person makes their own thread as a "blog". But I'll keep looking and see if anyone has come up with a solution for this.

Blog forum. Then, under it is for example, “Kea’s blog” thread. That is possible, Moon. Is there a way to make it unavailable to the public guest? Like, one should be a member to see its content.

Yes, we could make it visible just to members, or even limit it to members who have a certain number of posts.
