Ok, here is the new and improved version to connect phpLD to forum software to vBulletin and phpBB 2 and 3.

Here is what you will find in the new release.

Settings: We will have admin settings to determine certain user rights. Rights will be granted for each of the following phpLD actions:

– Add Link
– Add Article
– Add Article Comments
– Vote for Article Ratings

Rights should be able to be configured by the following:

– Allow action if post count is greater than x (ex. if you user has 100 posts, they may add articles)
– Allow action if vBulletin Admin (y/n)
– Allow action if vBulletin Moderator (y/n)

In addition, the admin should be able to manually add rights for the actions by specifying a username.

– Enter username
– Grant or remove rights for the user
– When manually changing user rights, it will always override automated

User Profile Pages: These will be displayed in phpLD. We already have these pages but we want to add more info:

– My Links – list links with links to link detail page
– My Articles – list articles with links to articles
– My Comments – list articles where they commented and link to the article

Admin Statistics Page:
So the admin can easily see recent user activity, it will be good to have a page that shows

– Latest Links Added
– Latest Articles Added
– Latest Comments Added
– Recent Votes

For each, show a link and the username (link to profile) that performed the action
