Just installed this. (In fact upgraded from fastforwards hack). Everything seems to work just fine from what I can tell.

Haven't tried the outgoing messages yet. Is there a way to disable peoples profiles being printed on them etc, as I don't think my members would be too keen on that.

Yeah, you can. For now you'll have to go into the code and change it. To do that, comment out this line:

$signature .= "$newthread[username]'s Profile: $settings[profileurl]$newthread[userid]\n";

Also does it support proper threading of messages?

Of course it does. I think it matches the new incoming posts with the correct thread better than fastforwards hack did. However, I made i
t where if the user modifies the subject line to be completely different, then a new thread will be created.

One problem I've noticed straight away is that is doesn't truncate usenet names, meaning the thread starter table is often over long.

So on the forumdisplay, they are to long? Or within the thread itself? Can you give me an example of one and how you'd like it chopped down? It can be done where the chopping will just be done on the forumdisplay so that the tables columns don't get smushed, yet in the viewthread, it'll remain the full length.

In fastforwards hack the quoted text appeared in italics, any way to do that here?

Yeah, find this line:

$message[text] = preg_replace("/((\n[ ]*>[^\n]*)+)/","$1",$message[text]);

and replace it with this:

$message[text] = preg_replace("/((\n[ ]*>[^\n]*)+)/","$1",$message[text]);

Or put in whatever other vb code you want there.

vB code with in the code tags gets parsed... so the $1 that is shown in blue up there is [ i ][ color=blue ]$1[ /color ][ /i ], of course that's without the spaces.
