giving weight to different forums

**Lpspider** · 05-25-2007, 04:15 PM

Okay, here's what I'd like to see. The ability to give "weight" or prefference to various forums of my own that are in postfusion. Priority, if you will.

For example, I might want forum #1 to get three times as many posts as forum #2 if I have them both in the system. So maybe I could assign each a percentage or ratio or something and on the listing their position would be adjusted accordingly.

So i was wondering if this feature could possibly be added.

Well, here is our current situation. With the latest revamp of PostFusion, we actually do not plan on developing any new features for the immediate future.

While it would be nice to continue adding to PF and taking requests for features like this, we just don't have the resources to do it. Larry is a paid developer and has been for a while now. He enjoys working on AF, but with the kind of work that we were asking him to do (PostFusion, demo's, front page, review system, etc.), we also needed to compensate him for that. While all parties wish that we could continue to do that, money doesn't grow on trees

Right now our focus is on maintaining our current features/tools and keeping them up to date, but not add new features. Don't think that we're abandoning PF or anything else here for that matter...because we're not...They just won't undergo any major development any time soon.
