March Forum Updates-1.Global Announcement-
Members will be able to post Global Announcements in some forums. (In addition to Sticky,Announcements and Normal posts).Ofc,this is primarily of use for leaders.
A Global Announcement is different from a normal announcement,a global announcement appears in every forum while an announcement is specific to that forum.
So the topic has to
very general and applicable to everybody for it to be a Global Announcement.
I have posted a few topics like AoF Code of Conduct etc.that will appear in every forum as a Global Announcement.
Also from now on,announcements and stickies will appear separately in a different table from normal posts.(It looks good and neat,you can distinguish now between normal posts and stickies)
2.Attachments-An innovative feature that allows you to attach files(pics,music etc.) to messages on a topic of your forum.Many extensions are supported. Every time you post a new topic or reply(not quick reply) you will see it at the bottom of the 'Send' button.
But there are limits ,unfortunately. As this is a free forum we have only 15 MB,a very small storage space.
Basically it is useless.
If you have anything to post just upload it somewhere else and post it as you always do.
