I do so wish I was ready to be able to do that... LoL
Ok, this is what will be in 6.0 before I release it:
Calendaring system, based on a per forum basis. This uses a seperate dedicated table for all event storage. I need to work on getting this blended in better with .threads but it's getting there.
Birthday tracking in conjunction with copa age check at signup and profile configurable. (birthdays and other events listed on the calendar and in the upcoming events box) I haven't tackled this yet but I have a basic idea of how to go about it so it shouldn't be to bad.
Web Ring, just because one day it seemed so simple a thing to do so I did.
News Feed, allow others to place some javascript code on their sites that will display your news or current post subjects from a specified board. (another fairly straight forward feature I did just because it was easy)
Topic Icons, this was requested a long time back by Wraith and I do agree it adds a nice touch to news/review postings. (this one HAS to go in this time, it's related to a few other things) I just need to kill a full day or two and do this.
Picture Posts, this is a type of photo album or what not. You can browse pictures that have been posted, in a thumbnail layout, or switch to the large view and view them one by one, they can be searched, you can see what you rated the picture post or enter a rating if you haven't already, and read replies to the picture post. (when in full view) I haven't done anything to allow admins to create actual resized thumbnail images but I will try and get it in there for this version.
Articles/Reviews section, with specific markup code that allows such things as multiple pages per article/review. I have know what this should do and look like but haven't done anything with it. It's actualy towards the end of the list... lol sorry
As it stands right now I'm only about 30% done with 6.0 and really debated on releasing anything new prior to it as I didn't want to spend time on anything else. But it's kind of good though too. I didn't like calling the next version 5.0 because it has changed a lot compared to how 5.0 and earlier versions are setup. I'm also looking forward to 6.0 myself because I will be using this on my own website. (kinda nice to use something I'm creating) LoL
On a side note, I have seen http://www.phpportals.com and it wont be long before there is nothing they have that IIP doesn't.
