I will try to explain this as best I can without screenshots. I am a member of an extremely large and busy forum and the admins there are far too busy to help me with this. I can take screenshots if it will help, please let me know.
Hack 1:
Filter posts by Post Icon
Description: Along the top of the forumdisplay they have a collapsed box. You click the + and it expands to reveal all the availible post icons. You select one and all the posts with that post icon are filtered (viewable). Then when want to go back to regular view you click a link in the box that says Unfilter Posts.
Hack 2:
URL Matcher
Description: When a user posts a new thread, there is a link checker that scans the db to see if that link was posted previously. This particular forum has removed the submit thread and forces you to preview (which I like and want). In the preview there is a box/table above your post that tells you if there was a url match, domain match, new URL, and no URLS present (if there wasn't any in the post).

This is a great way to reduce the amount of reposts. Every forum has those links that get passed around and around from board to board.
Hack 3:
Forum Specific Post Icons
Description: Basically an update of Xenons Vb2 hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?s=&threadid=40821) for Vb3.
Hack 4:
Post Icon Dimensions
Description: vB3 port of this hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=48992&highlight=post+icons) by Xyphen.
Hack 5:
Slippery Threads
Description: Another vb3 port. Slippery Threads by Zzed (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=48909&highlight=post+icon+forum)
Think thats all I need for now. If there is a way for me to do any of these through the vb3 admin panel or whatever I apologize, please inform me. Thanks in advance.
