Hello wpForo,
Firstly I would like to congratulate the whole team for the development of this beautiful project. I was almost giving up using wordpress because there was not a decent forum plugin and finally i found the wpforo.
Therefore, I would like to dedicate some ideas so that wpforo becomes better and thus more popular among us users.
1) Hide nickname:
By default, username is required to create a wordpress account, plus display name and nickname should be optional, since not all forum administrators want their members to change display names and nicknames at any time, this May even cause flooding. My suggestion for this is that, if by any chance you can not hide these 2 text boxes, you could at least limit the amount of time it can be changed the display names and nickname.
2) Time zone:
The time zone ends up being a little confused by the extensive amount of local time that can be selected, showing the cities and continents and too manual adjustments. My suggestion to improve this is to show only the manual settings (example: UTC-12, UTC-7: 30, etc ...) or the continents so that it does not get so big and complex to choose from.
3) Organization of the page Members:
My suggestion for the page where it shows the members of the forum could be searched also by group categories, for example:
Name: Gustavo
Group: Admin
[Search]
This would make it easier for what kind of members the person wants to see, team people or normal members.
4) Send Private Message
I read somewhere that this addon was already being made, I just quoted that suggestion to reinforce because it is very important in a forum :D!
5) Style Options:
The style options are pretty cool, but I think there should be some kind of improvement or documentation for some customizations in the forum.
6) Make constant updates:
This suggestion is to reinforce that we are very fond of yous works, I know how complex it is to carry out an update and correct several bugs, but I, like other users here, expect them to bring many good things without an extensive delay. I'm risking using wpforo on my site that is game related, and I believe this experience will be great.
Thanks for the attention of the team wpforo, I hope the suggestions can be used, a hug and excuse my English! ☺
