I'm old enough to remember playing Door Games on a Commodore 64 in the mid 80s, but still young enough to want to re-create this experience for my forums in 2026. And I'm doing exactly that... Is anyone interested in this as well? Or have the rest of my ole BBSers died off?

Okay, so you want it to be optional to allow the starting of topics from the social feed... This is another thing I'd LIKE to hear a few more people suggest/request. It's probably not an issue to make it optional - though I'm not the programmer and I'm not sure at what point some things create...

Good suggestions for improvement and enhancement... 1. I'll add a "Legacy View" tab (that term will be editable in phrases). 2. I'd like to get more input on this from other users before implementing it. Though having it as an option really couldn't hurt... 3. Thread types... Discussions...

Glad to hear you're liking it. It's something I wanted for a long time and was really happy to see it come to life over the past year. I wasn't even intending on releasing it as an add-on but I recently found some stats that showed me how often it was being used, and that convinced me it would...

That's something we can add into the next update. I'll see if we can have that ready tomorrow. It's about 8pm here in Florida.

Here are screenshots for desktop and mobile. Functionality is exactly how you'd expect from XenForo.

I'm going to save this post for various thoughts... Not sure how long I'll be able to edit this post - but it's here for now... You can download this file to check to see if Simple Thread Permissions is compatible with your server configuration / XenForo installation. Download the archived...
