Recreating the forum pages from the ground up using the new site code was a bigger project than I had expected and took a lot longer but it turned out far better than I had planned and I ended up doing even more with it than I originally planned. Since I put 75+ hours into this, you can imagine that there's a lot to mention regarding the new changes so I'll try and break my post down into each of the big changes and I'll try to keep it as brief as I can.



New Forum Pages
The forum pages on Vizzed Board have been recreated from the ground up and given a new layout and design (but is still somewhat similar to the old). It's far more organized which is more appealing to new users and is not only more secure but loads slightly faster as well.

Here's an example of before:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum(old).php?id=4
And now:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?id=4


Sub Forums and Keywords
At the top of each forum you'll see what looks like a keyword density cloud; this actually is a list of all the keywords used in the selected forum with the bigger keywords having more threads assigned to them. Vizzed Board treats thread keywords as a sub forum since clicking them filters the threads with that selected keyword.

I went about displaying the Sub Forums / Keywords this way because it offers the best of both worlds. For those who like sorting through words in alphabetical order, it appeals to them because it is in alphabetical order. For those who would prefer it to be in order of which keyword has more threads assigned to it, it should appeal to them as well since they can still pick out the keywords with a lot of threads assigned to them since they are bigger. The important keywords will stick out the most which will be great for finding threads and it'll also be great for search engines.


Ordering Threads
You can organize the threads of any forum page based on any of the following orders:
-Alphabetical by Thread Title
-Most Replies
-Most Views
-Highest Rating
-Latest Reply

Just click the links at the top of each column to sort it based on that column.


Admins Have Full Control Over Forums
The admins of the site now all have the ability to completely edit a forum which means the burden of me having to do it through the database myself is gone. Even better is that anyone who owns a rented forum also has access to Admin features. Here's a list of everything that a forum owner and admin can do:
-Add and Remove Moderators and Page Admins
-Change the forums title and description
-Change how the forum appears on the forum index page
-Completely change the look of the forum itself such as changing the background, content boxes, etc

All of the changes do cost Viz for anyone who isn't an Admin of the site. The cost to add something to a forum is usually between 2000 - 10,000 Viz but once you've added something, the cost to change it is usually only around 5-20% of the adding cost.

Staff members do have the ability to give a user back their Viz in case they unfairly lost Viz while using the admin features (staff, you'll want to look up the action and click the 'Revoke' link which gives them their Viz back).

All page updates are fully logged so that staff members can track and monitor what members are doing with their forums.



New Posts Page
The new posts page is now a modified version of the new forum page. It mostly has the same look and feel of the old page except it's more organized and has more features. All links now point to it and old links will redirect to it. You can see it for yourself here:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?user=1&display=minimal


Your Posts Page
The Your Posts Page got the same treatment as the New Posts page. It should be a lot faster than before and it'll now say which forum the thread belongs to (before it didn't). You can see this for yourself here:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?user=0&display=minimal
(with the above URL, if a user id is specified, then it shows threads of that user but if 0 is used, then it shows threads for you)


View threads by this user
This is similar to the Your Posts Page but not exactly the same. When clicking the 'View threads by this user' link at the bottom of a user's profile, it'll take you to a page which lets you filter through all of their threads. The old page had a lot of issues including the inability to go from page to page and it also made all stickied threads appear first which made it hard to find a user's latest threads.

The big difference between this and the Your Posts Page is that this one shows more details while the other is far more minimal.
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?user=1


Mobile Friendly
The forum pages are now mobile friendly. In order to pull this off and to fit everything on a cell phone without it looking cluttered, it'll show less details.


The All Forums Forum
This is a forum that includes all forums:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php

Every thread will appear here and can be sorted in lots of fun ways.

Want to find out which Threads have the most replies?
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?order=replies

Want to find out which Threads have the most views?
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?order=views

Want to find out which Threads have the highest rating?
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?order=rating

Want to find out which Threads have been tagged with 'News'?
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?sub=News

The All Forums Forum can be customized in many ways and it'll be used in many various ways by me for various purposes on the site.


Information Panel
You can now see various stats for each forum. The panel to the very right will show the total number of threads, posts and views in the selected forum. It'll also show the top 10 users with the most threads in that forum. I was going to do top posts as well but the query for that would cause the page to take a while longer to load so that wont be added until I can figure out a quicker way to handling the query. When viewing threads from the All Forums Forum or threads by a certain user, you'll see stats based on those as well.


Board Searching
I saved this one for last since it's probably one of the most exciting new things about the updated forum pages. We now have a search functionality which allows you to search for threads based on their title and the keywords assigned to them. The search bar can be found in the Navigation panel to the left (make sure 'Board' is selected in the drop down menu).

After you've submitted a search, you can then alter your search results even further by selecting the sort order, selecting a sub forum, etc.

Here's an example of a search result searching for "Leaving":
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?search=Leaving


Other Little Updates
-Threads with a lot of pages no longer display all of the page numbers on the forum page. Instead it just shows the first 2 and last 2 page numbers if there are more than 5 pages.

-Threads also now show all of the keywords assigned to them on the forum page (before it'd only show the 1st keyword).

-The Thread Favorites page gets all of the benefits of everything else listed in this thread. You can find your list of favorites from the control panel and you can add/remove threads to your favorites from inside of threads toward the top right above the first post in that thread.

-The status of a thread has its own column which helps keep things organized and makes it easier to see what is stickied and closed.



I'm sure I forgot to list a lot of stuff. I'll probably edit this thread as I think of stuff or as I add more stuff. If you have any questions or notice anything not working properly, be sure to let me know right away in this thread so that I can get it fixed.

Also, as a way to get users excited about the admin features for rented forums, I'm renting out a forum right now as a Viz auction here:

This may be just for myself (or a certain rank + lower), but the "News and Updates" link under the All Forums section just sends me back to the main page (vizzed.com).

I'm sure it's not hard to figure out how to do it and what it looks like, I just thought you might want to know the link wasn't working right.

That said, I absolutely love the set up. I can't wait to try out the new layout

Sorry about that. I just meant clicking the link doesn't take me to any forums or threads, but to the URL "www.vizzed.com" The only thing different about that link is it has "Updates>" in the text before the rest of it, so that might be why it doesn't work right for me. If I copy and paste everything after the "Updates>" part, it takes me to the right page.

Like I said before, it could just be me.

Wow, quite a bunch of updates! Way to go, David!

I've found a small problem. The new posts page no longer shows the posts as being made according to your personal time zone offset as selected in your profile. Not a big issue, but when you're 7 hours ahead of the server time it's a bit confusing to calculate if a thread you're following has had any new replies.

I'll check the links during the afternoon to get used to the new layout and powers. I can't wait to try them all!

Mynamescox44 : I see what you mean now. Fixed.

EX Palen : I always forget to factor in the time zones when I work on new features. That should be fixed now.

I don't know if anyone else have noticed it, but when I go to any RENTED private forms, it just redirects me to the main board page. I know it's not because I'm not invited: when I checked yesterday I could view them just fine, and I'm pretty sure the owners of the form didn't just decide to remove me (it doesn't have that normal "this form is restricted to you because blah blah blah" message, it just acts like I've actually tried to go to the main board and not the rented form). I don't know if it's because you're working on them (because they are missing some features which sometimes makes it annoying to have one), but I would like to be able to access them again.

The other new features sound good, and the all forms page makes it so that I can post easily without having to go through every form to find the threads I want to post in. Which is good .

Is it possible to stretch the table for 'thread' a little to the right? It's a bit of eye strain for me. I'll post an example of my screen:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/upload/files/All_Forums_Forum.png

and here is a little less eye-strain with the page zoomed in:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/upload/files/All_Forum_Zoom.png

Edit:
Images aren't actual size, you can click on them to zoom.

Davideo7 : Question about editing forum stuff, after you do something for the first time, like change the name, after that, the price to change the name drops, however if you do it again, the same amount of Viz is taken out as the first time. Is the price actually supposed to drop after you first change something or stay the same?


Edit: Just read the part about the price after the 1st being 5-20%. Doesnt seem to be like that.

Davideo7 : The problem is with members that aren't moderators or higher. Mohammedroxx is also having trouble going into the ham ham clubhouse (forum id 97)

I don't know what's up with it but I don't know what's wrong because I can normally get in.

Fixed the Viz problem.

Davideo7 : Is there a way for us to make the forums private?

Davideo7 : Mohammedroxx3 is right. Users can see the names of threads, but can't go inside.

I can see the threads in your private forum David.

Barathemos : I can see the thread title on the new posts page (but NOT the thread itself).

I'm also able to see the forum itself, but not the threads itself. (Basically all the thread title, description, page number, page admin/staff... etc)

tRIUNE : If I do that then the 'Creator/Forum' column gets crowded and in order to display the entire forum name in that column, the cells end up getting taller which makes the entire row taller which becomes an even bigger eye sore. What I could do is just remove one of the columns when you're viewing the threads in that minimal display. I suppose I could get rid of the ratings column?


zanderlex : I don't seem to be having any issues. Just keep in mind that if you completely remove the details of a field and then alter re-add it, you'll be charged the full price when you re-add it later. Could you give me an example of a field that was giving you this issue?

Users should now be able to get into a private forum that they're a mod of.


mohammedroxx3 : That issue should now be fixed. Let me know if it is.


zanderlex : You can now adjust the privacy of a forum as long as you're an admin of the forum.

Yea. I think it is fixed now. The only thing I can see is "(private forum)" in the new posts page with the user that created the thread and the last poster in it. 

It might look better if you can completely hide it for the thread creator and last poster's privacy but it might not be too much of a big deal.

Davideo7 : One example is the background image, each time I put it in, it was either off center, not the right size, or appeared too many times. I don't think I ever completely erased what was in the field, just put a new image in each time

Hmmm, I thought I saw Davids Private Forum in the New Posts page, but now isn't displaying... Must have been my imagination... Or my lack of sleep, since we're heading to 2:30 AM

Bad jokes aside, the private forums now just display who created the thread and who posted last, like moha said. Not a big deal, since restricted posts/threads have always appeared like this in user profiles, so it's fine as it is now.

I must find the correct add-ons for my forum to test the look changes. So far, I only got rid of it's old add-ons, because it looks better in default.
