Forum and Performance Improvements

We have published a new platform update today that brings new enhancements and answers some of our top requested items.

Forum Improvements

  1. Editing Posts. We have improved the edit post option to load inline with the reply, this also fixes a problem that would happen when someone would copy in bad/broken HTML that would case the edit option to break. Now no matter what you should be able to edit a post that is broken.
  2. Changing the Thread Topic. When you edit the first post in a thread you will have the option to edit the threads topic.
  3. New Filter Added. If you are an moderator or forum administrator you have a new filter option called Pending Approval if you have. This will display if there are topics waiting your approval.
  4. Post Counts. We made a change in how post counts are updated. This was done to improve the load time of forum pages, however some users may have a 0 post count until they post there next topic or reply in the forums.
  5. Iphone/Ipad Compatibility.  We have added new functionality to our rich text editors that now allow users to post, edit or reply to topics in the forums using these devices.

Other key improvements

  1. Performance. This is a key area we are continually working on as we finish adjusting to our huge influx of new Spruz site creators. We have made several improvements in the last 24 hours that should increase overall page load times and add stability to your website. We are continually making tweaks and adjustments in this area. We hope to have all stability issues resolved by early next week.
  2. Comment Box Rich Text Editors. You can now enjoy rich text editors on all Comment boxes. Rich text editors make it easy to format text that appear in comments. We will have controls that will allow you to customize the options members have access to in the editors.
  3. Broadcast Email Rich Text Editor. Next time you broadcast an email you will notice a full editor. This editor has been added to make it much easier to format the messages you send to your users.
