10 phpBB 2 Hacks I'd Love to See Written for phpBB 3

[Patrick]

Hey all,

I've been doing an inventory of features I have in phpBB 2 that I need in phpBB 3 that the software doesn't have by default and I've come up with the list below. So, these are 10 hacks I'd love to see written for phpBB 3.

Photo Visual Confirmation was actually written for one of the phpBB 3 release candidates and needs to be brought up to phpBB 3.

Edit Post Date Hack - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/883

Censor Block - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/6328

Enhanced Polls - Hide Poll Results - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/1371

Subject Check - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/7655

Photo Visual Confirmation - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/8038

No Initiating PM Conversations Until a Specific Post Count - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/4411

Private Message Remover - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/5402

Post Remover - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/4291

Admin Private Messages Manager - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/200

Search Posts by Time - http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/348

If any of the hack authors out there would like to tackle any of these, that'd be awesome and I'm sure many people would benefit from them like they have benefited from the phpBB 2 versions.

Or, if someone has already written one or more of these that provide all of the functionality of the phpBB 2 version, posting a link would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Patrick

Hey Marian,

Thank you very much.

That first link appears to be what I need. Would be awesome if Mr. Noureddine would write that up as a hack. But, looks good.

The second and third ones are close, but not quite there. I need the edit date function to be able to be restricted to administrators and I need to be able to delete PMs from the admin private messages area.

But, thanks much... this is a good start!

Thanks,

Patrick

It looks like Ken F. Innes has released a hack for phpBB 3 that replicates the features of Subject Check, which is awesome. Thanks to Mr. Innes.

I'd definitely like to see about 5 hacks you listed above. I've got the free time right now but lack the experience, so I wish I could code them.

The censor block, and private message management stuff would be great!
