What changes would make this forum more useful or easier for you?

The RSS feed would be more useful if it contained the full text of each post.  I don't know anything about SMF, but it looks like Maximum post length is the appropriate setting.

brushvalleybrewer:
I’ve seen some forums where there are multiple feeds to choose from. For instance, if you could somehow satisfy the earlier request for unread “beer related” topics, if we could just get an RSS feed for "beer related” topics, too, that would be great.

Also, in the multiple feeds department, I much prefer the TastyBrew.com feed where you just see new topics. The signal-to-noise ratio is much lower.

Also…  ;) …the “every single post” feed --- the one you get now --- should (as suggested earlier) be full text. You’re not getting ad impressions, so it would be good to be able to read a thread without leaving my RSS reader.

There seem to be RSS feeds for each board; they're just not advertised.  Appending ;type=rss;action=.xml to the end of the URL of whichever board I'm interested in gives me a board-specific feed.

I think being able to attach .pdf files or the like would be helpful for recipes etc... Also how about embedding video? :) Another irritation is not being able to simply insert the hyperlinks under a shorter name.

For example: http://www.unwiredview.com/2010/03/31/new-samsung-galaxy-s-i9000-preview-the-phone-will-apparently-cost-e600/

Otherwise I consider this site pretty refined, not too spartan not too cluttered, loads fast and easy to read and navigate.

Euge - actually on the url thing.. it's a bb code specification so you can link them differently


Euge's Link

All you have to do is on the url tag is put the link like this

--- Code: ---[url=http://www.unwiredview.com/2010/03/31/new-samsung-galaxy-s-i9000-preview-the-phone-will-apparently-cost-e600/] Your text [/url]

--- End code ---

phpBB assists you in that, but really that's all you need to do.
