AN-net, it is great to hear that you are making progress! This will be a great hack for all of the community and your work is really appreciated.
The requests that I made earlier are based on various threads here at vB that discuss the previous journal system for vB2...the things that people who have used a journal system seemed to need.
The ability for admin to delete/edit/view all entries is needed to avoid abuse of the system by users. It would be great if everyone were as nice as you and I, but they aren't.
If you could perhaps give us a list of your proposed features, those with experience using this kind of hack could contribute to making this an amazing hack.
Please do not be discouraged by the lack of responses to your proposed hack...I think the reason that people are not jumping in to cheer you on is because so many people have promised this hack and then not followed through. And a lot of people are "stuck" with Ryangel's vB2 Journal Hack with no way to upgrade it to vB3. You should take a look at
this thread to get an idea of how truly desperate those people are! And you might
look at this to see what type of journal system most people are hoping for.
Again, thank you for your hard work.
