Will there be a possibility for Admins of the forum to define these Statuses? For example, our forum is used as a MMO guild forum. We get applications to join the guild. So that having a [b]Application[/b] status that can be set to [b]Accepted[/b] and [b]Declined[/b]. I can't seem to see any options for adding to the option list today, is that something you guys are planning? I guess I can do it the dirty way by manipulating the database for now... EDIT: I see now that there is no Ralationship table to the Status but rather a string pushed into the Topic table. Maybe future versions should have a seperate table Users can add to? Also would be great to be able to define a default status out of those existing table that new topics would get withing a forum category. So that under the Forum Administration one could get a [b]Default New Topic Status[/b] with a drop down containing all the statuses defined.

Currently if you want to add a status you can do that by adding a list item to the dropdown on the postmessage.ascx page [code=csharp] [/code] You need to define a value and a default text. And add the localized text to the language files [code=xml] Informative Solved Question Issue Fixed Text [/code] you can also add it to the themes.xml and attach a icon to it. This is a temp. Solution this needs to be moved in its on status table, with a interface in the admin area to add and modify the statuses. P.S:I moved your post in to a new topic, because the topic you posted in was about the read tracking of a user not the topic status.
