Hi,
I really like the new features you added to VanillaForums.com like the badges, abilities, avatars etc.

Is everything included in the self-hosted version?
Thanks in advance,
Alex

    is it a new week already?
    Wow, time flies when the weekly 'are badges included in the free version' topic shows up... (text message sent to 422's phone...)

    Ok, good to know. Thanks all for input. Too bad though :(

    Does anyone know if there are plans to add a search facility to Vanilla forums?

    I think it would be a really good idea, as then people would be able to look for previous answers, instead of asking the same questions over and over again.

    Frankly, for such a great project, it's a surprising omission.

    Although the search facility is present, I know what you mean. there is a topic about that from couple of weeks ago.

    It's similar to this:

    User enters new topic.
    Vanilla searches in all topics for similar topics.
    User gets presented with a list : 'Did you mean' : (list here) and when he clicks something, he either gets redirected to existing topic or creates a new topic


    Moderators should also be able to merge topics to avoid annoying duplicate topics, but I don't think the developers will implement topic merging.

    @Underdog - that would be a good idea, but tbh I was being facetious.

    (facetious - one of the few English words to have all the vowels in alphabetical order.)

    I had to look it up, but I understand what you mean now :-)

    Treating serious issues with deliberately inappropriate humor;

    : ''Robbie's joke about Heather's picture was just him being '''facetious'''.''
