This is a thread for suggested improvements when proboards does their next upgrade. I understand from E that some of these, like no. 3 and 4, have been suggested to the proboards support peeps many times.
By the way E has been our "liaison" to the proboards support staff by joining that site. It is an actual proboards site and I think (but I'm not certain) that anyone can sign up--you don't have to be an admin or staff on a site. E learned a lot of her coding tricks from the support board peeps. I want to again thank E for all her efforts that have led to numerous enhancements in TheShieldRap.
Here are some starters:
1. have "next" and "previous" buttons for PMs. The current method is very tedious.
2. be able to have more than 20 thread titles in a list. The "this 'n that" board has something like 7 pages of threads. Why not have 100 or more thread titles on a page so we don't have to keep going to the next page?
3. when clicking "view last X (no. of) posts" on the home page, be able to see a list of headers (e.g., date, poster, thread and board), instead of having to scroll through all of the actual posts. And have each item on the list be a link to the post--that way we could not only pick and choose which posts we are interested in, we could actually get to them with a click.
4. for staff: be able to move individual posts to different boards or threads (right now we can only move entire threads to a different board.

OK, I checked the settings list and it turns out I can at least increase the no. of thread titles per page to 50 and the no. of posts per page to 30. Those are the maximum. The previous settings were 20 threads and 20 posts.

all the message boards i post on regularly have a Last 10/20 posts box that's easy to spot right from the front page
even though each section has a Last Post text, if there's three back to back in that section, i won't see it right away. for those of us who hit n run during the day, i think it would be a great addition

There's a "Most Recent Posts" link at the bottom of the homepage, darlin... Posts from the Games board and the Snitches board won't show up there, however.
