I've just been looking through the issues in the forum module queue, thought for a laugh I'd have a look at the last one: http://drupal.org/node/9729

Is it alright to mark ancient stuff like that fixed? I checked and Drupal 6 adds a unique id to each forum row, so using CSS to attach an icon would be trivial. Just wanted to check that old stuff like that isn't there for a reason. :)

As far as I know, the only reason they're there is because no-one went through and marked them as fixed yet.

Go for it

If you have the time, feel free to clean up the issue queue. If there's FRs that are still valid, bump them to D7. Old support requests can just be set fixed with a note to reopen if it's still a problem.

Cool, thanks. Thought that list would be a good place to start. Cluttered lists make me anxious. :)

Well, the forum issue queue

Well, the forum issue queue is now a lot shorter.

I marked a lot of old stuff as fixed, many of the issues took five minutes of testing to find they're not a problem in six, as no-one has argued or re-opened the fixed issues, I must be doing something right. :)

Nice :)

Glad you're taking the time to do this. Having the issue queue cleaned up will help with improving forum in 7 so we can focus on what's left.

Thanks for the encouragement! I know it's not much, but hopefully worthwhile. I'd better start getting my modules ported to six next. :)

Good point, I've added a few good ones, feel free to delete any that won't make it or what not. Good idea to put a direct link into the forum queue. :)

Michelle: I know! I've got loads of private work on at the moment so have to get that out of the way before working on my modules. :(

Hehe

Just teasing you. I'm being totally irresponsible for a few days and gasp working on my own site instead of my modules. Shhhh. Don't tell anyone. ;)
