Forum Posts Like Function
It would be ideal if there could be a "like" function in the forums. This function could assist with more engagement within the membership.

forum size limit
Increase forum size limits to 100KB or more. Right now the limit is 50KB, which really limits forum posts to only text and can't include low res graphics. I would like to see the forum size limit increased or allow administrators to set the forum size limits in the settings.

Enable "No Access" Forum Setting for Public
Hopefully this is a small change, but a useful one.
I would like to create a forum for private discussions among Board of Director members.
So as not to rub it in members' noses that there's a forum they are excluded from, I don't want it listed in the Forums List page.
So I restrict it to members of the Directors group.
Good: Members can't see it in the Forums list page.
Bad: Public visitors can see it. So can Members if they log out.
This thread http://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308929-general-discussion-and-questions/suggestions/8825143-how-do-i-restrict-forum-access-to-members-only explains the reasoning behind disabling Public No Access. That's fine if you…

Number of topics in the forum list
It would be nice to be able to configure the number of topics that are listed per page. The current setting of 10 is VERY low and our members are used to seeing quite a few more than that.

need immediate notification when a member posts in a discussion forum
I recently created a discussion forum and subscribed to it hoping to see when others posted a comment. I now understand that the email notifying me that there has been a post is only generated once per day. I would have thought that it would be more immediate. It would be helpful if those who subscribe could be notified as soon as there is a posting in their forum or in a specific topic. Being notified late at night is counter-productive to having a real-time discussion. Yes, I know that I can periodically check the page for updates but an…

Connect Forums to Tapatalk
The forums cannot be easily accessed from mobile devices, and should either be able to connect to Tapatalk, or another mobile app that allows for mobile access. Or include forum access in the WildApricot Member App

forums and Facebook
Build a connection between forums and a closed facebook group. Members are saying that they don't use the forums because it is a pain to log into a system they don't already access on a regular basis... but most are on Facebook daily...
Or, is there a way to auto-subscribe members to certain forum channels? Any advice on easing the process for members to comment/interact?

ability to sort in the forum by last in first posted
Some observations from the field:
I understand WA is working on a major architectural back end redesign. Well appreciated.
And, I still think its one of the best non profit, membership-turnkey solutions out there..
At this point, I do have to speak up, and suggest you implore some of these real easy enhancements asap before we loose ground.
Easy stuff like having the ability to sort in the forum by last in first posted ? So common .. in fact in practice on WA forums. There are many other examples in this "wish list" that are easy, and logical.
While…

Export Forum Post Archive
I would like to be able to download an archive of all forum posts. With text formatting would be ideal, but not sure if that is feasible.

Forum responses not useful or organized
The Forum is really hard for people to use. You can't quote an original question in a response, and your response is not threaded with the original question. So a person must read through all responses to get to the one they want.
Needs better organization.
As it is, the Forum is not very useful.6 votes -

Insert photo from album to Forum topic
Be able to INLINE a photo in a forum post from a users photo album(s). If it's all mostly one DB instance anyway, how hard could it be to ask for a "insert link/photo from album" that leads to a dialog to select a photo and have it display inline with the forum post. I'm sure not as simple as I suspect, but why have data in a database if we can't get to it at convenient moments, like posting a forum entry with a small photo inline..
If this is already possible, pardon the RTFM moment on my part.

Back Button to Forum Summary
My site really needs a back button to the Forum Summary after a commenter posts. It's a critical flaw. I've never seen a message board that doesn't have this function. I've already gotten complaints about it from my membership calling the software bulky and non-intuitive.

Hierarchical Forum/Sub-Forum Structure
Some of our board members have requested the ability to have sub-forums. I am trying to create a workaround using Forum Summary widgets and sub-pages, but this is not as easy to navigate (or search) as a forum with a hierarchical structure. This structure seems to be a common feature of fora I have seen elsewhere. How about it?

See the post you're replying to
I'd like to see what I'm replying to without having to include the whole thing in my reply (as with quote). Also, the nomenclature is not what a user expects... most of my users didn't bother to even try "quote" before asking how to get that type of functionality.

Add "Anonymous" Commenting Option to Profile
Currently, anyone commenting on a Forum has their name displayed with their comment. The only way to comment anonymously is to remove all outside access to the profile.
On the premise that people might be more willing to participate in a Forum if they could easily create anonymity, adding a profile option to permit anonymous commenting would be a helpful feature.
An alternative approach might be to direct the commenter through a process allowing removal of their name, substituting of a "nickname" or simply "anonymous" to identify the commenter.
