Changed the style but still have to do tweaks
Have to fix banner image and make into an image map.

The actual header, footer and paypal buttons are on my forums along with the paypal link. Hope that helps. Say if your able to add them ABOUT YOURUBE BLOG links in the header that would be amazing!!!! Then we would not need them in the link bar ... (cleaner look)

***** My wife just told me to make title bars & Post post topic text to match the header orange HEX: #F77911 ( no blue anymore)*****

Enabled Paid Subscriptions and Post Moderation. Paid subscriptions note: You still have to create member group for paid members and set rates. Thank You!!!!

Increased the default size of thumbnails 600X350 Perfect

For signups we have great bot detection so you probably don't need to turn on admin approval but that is an option under  Sounds good....
Admin -> Registration -> Settings

I setup post moderation for Newbie member group and changed it to 2 posts before being promoted to junior member.  Perfect!!!
The people with 2 posts will require posts to be approved by admins before appearing.

Guests changed so they can't download attachments.  Perfect!!!


One more thing I saw playing on the forums - Love the chat box!!! but is it possible (options)
1.  hover over the main Forums 
2. open on the side bar perhaps then allow the user to in lager it if they wish 
3. final option witch would probably be the easiest just open it in a new tab

I will send you a msg.... as well

Are you happy with the old theme style as the base versus what we have on this forum? Yes i am fine with it. Can we just change the color of the light blue/gray looking bar?

I add my header & footer on my forums for you

I might suggest the ultimate plan since that unlocks everything and makes the site ad free. Done paid

You can also place your own ads/charge ads. This me better later on. I like that idea ty


Add images 600X350 with in the post (part of blog)
This will need to be described more where is this going? Just as the post on my forum, thumbnail are just to small, as for the norm users posting I think its fine.
We can setup a homepage/side panels/blocks on the site using ezportal found in the admin area. Perfect

Notes:  Store removed Ty

Add Links:
The editor does allow you to insert links in posts as well as Youtube Great less work!

Drag Drop images within the post?
Currently not supported but will look into so more. You can insert them via attachments and have them insert into the post though. OK Ty just something new

Unlimited post on 1 topic unless I close it
Yes, we don't limit the number of posts on a forum or topic. Admins/Mods can lock a topic whenever needed.  OK Great

Notifications of subscriber for approval
Now are you talking about people who register on the forum? Meaning require admins to approve their account? Correct!! just trying to control all the fake bot accounts, but looks like you may have that controlled from your registration process...


Guest User
Only can only view posts
No download or posting


Yes this is possible with permissions. And guests are disabled by default from posting
Me allowing them o view without registering may bite me in the butt, but will see



New members’ initial post needs approval
Once pleased by the members post will release the restrictions
can post and edit only their post
Yes this can be setup via permissions/post moderation.
What limits do you want to set? Like how many posts before no more restrictions. That's perfect lets say (2) I just don't want them coming in promoting other sites or there stuff with out my permissions.

Mods,
full control of editing, deleting, banding and approving new members
Yes possible with a global moderator member group ok

will have a paid membership forum, trainings and educational
Yes possible. We have built paid subscription system via paypal which you can use to have members join a specific member group. Which you can then use member group level permissions to allow access to certain forums.  Perfect!

Due to lack of knowledge and time restraints was wounder if I could pay someone to setup the forum layout and requirements. I am able to make a list of what I want and expect from forums along with screen shots. 

If some of the things I want require add-ons and fees that's fine to.

thank you..... me dropping a photo in the text box was then a error on my part. I am hoping to be able to post a small howto blogs in the forums with a few images.

I did not see the photogallery option so please point me in the correct direction... and if what im trying to accomplish isnt possible please point me in the correct direction.

I saw the attachments and other great tools and I think im down to figuring out the photo part as well as the ability to add like say a youtube video.... I have done this in other forums using html code.

I am hoping to use this forum to help other with there construction or DIY projects so it will take a pounding over time and may require its own server, but time will tell

Can I add a home page link sending it back to my main site?
