I have more questions about invisionboard.
How do I allow people to make their own custom titles at a certain level of posts?
If I change the host of my site would I have to reinstall invisionboard and change all the settings again?
Is it worth it?

This is best asked at Invisionboards own forums but here goes:


How do I allow people to make their own custom titles at a certain level of posts?

It can be done in the Admin Control Panel. Theres a line that allows you to allow users to have custom titles after _ posts. The _ is a textbox for you to fill in a number.



If I change the host of my site would I have to reinstall invisionboard and change all the settings again?

I'm not sure but I'm sure there is a way to backup your board.


Is it worth it?

Considering what it can do and the fact that it is free - yes.

if you move hosts - just backup the mysql database, config.php and any theme you had installed and then just re-upload the way ur forum was to the next host

By custom post I meant people get to choose their own title. So after a certain number of posts the person could have anything as their title like donkey manager or Explicit Lyricist. How would I go about doing that if possible?

It is not possible yet, but it is planned for the next release. Mods might tackle this, but in the meantime there is no way.
