Great to see you keep on working this mod. You have no idea how much I appreciate your (and other hackers/modders) time and work
My ideas/requests:
1. Attachments are uploaded with a description and are shown in the v3articles way on the bottom of the article:
2. A more visual way of rating an article. On the bottom of the article a v3articles style of 'please rate this article/you have rated this article' display:
3. The first thumbnail of attached images will also be used for the featured article option (v3articles style):
4. Option to enter the name of the original writer/publisher (instead of the poster of the article), like with Cinq's article mod.
5. Option to enter an article summary (like with Cinq's article mod). This summary (plus the thumbnail of request 3) will be displayed for the random/featured article mod.
6. Multiple pages when a [pagebreak] command is been given. A visual display of the number of available pages directly on the bottom of the article (like Cinq's mod):
7. Currently the article mods are using the whole width of the messageboards table. This makes very long lines and less pleasant to read for people than shorter lines. Cinq's article mod makes the table where the articles are in less width, because he's added a column to the right where 'print this article' and 'sent this article' are displayed. Since this column is further empty, it would be a great place to add two new lists there: 'simular articles' and 'more articles of [username]':
