I don't know if this has been done before - or exactly how to do it - but in doing some work on the board settings today and reading the feedback, I noticed or was made aware of a few features that (I assume) used to be in the main function of the board but are now available as add ons. I was curious what people thought about adding these.
Post Counter - Each post used to have a post number in the upper-right corner that was referenced from time to time later in the thread and was an easy way to grab a link to that post. This is a free add on that seems to be well reviewed although there is one comment that says it doesn't work in 4.2 so perhaps it doesn't matter.
Online Status - This wasn't there before but might be interesting to see if someone you're having a discussion with is currently online. Free.
Advanced Status Update - This one is Good News/Bad News. The Good News is that it restores all the functionality - and adds significantly - to the Status Updates bar. I don't know why it is changed to being pretty cumbersome to use but this looks like it would be pretty popular. The Bad News is that it costs $15 to get for the first year then $7.50 per year after that. Not that that's a huge amount but I just don't like it on principle. I tried looking around for a different option but didn't see anything.
