msgreenf Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Morning Everyone! Dan and I have been talking and we would like to make the forums more productive and easier to use. We have a few ideas and you will see a few things changing. So far: 1) You can enable 2FA 2) You can delete attachments you upload now (Thanks @Darin, C4 PM UI for calling this out) 3) A few tweaks to make attachments easier 4) Added new sub forum for Voice Control 5) moved posts to right categories 6) Gif's are now enabled We plan to: 1) Clean up the for Sale area 2) reorganize the topics We would like your input. Do you hate the ads? We are going to look to take donations and move you to a tier with no ad's based on being a supporter! Please put your ideas to this thread and we will evaluate them and go from there! Thanks for supporting c4forums!

C4 User Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 First, I really appreciate you guys managing this forum. It is and has been very helpful over the years.

chopedogg88 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Awesome, thanks guys! I would happily donate to support an ad-free environment. How about Tapatalk support? For me the lack of Tapatalk support like we used to have is a big bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggzlot Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Great stuff I’d like to see a larger forum to foster a better community - less verbal attacks, etc. To help, some other successful forums I participate with offer sub forums totally off topic like sub forums on things you are cooking, home renovation tips (non c4 related), travel tips/advice, sports talk, etc. Helps forum members get to know each other a bit more and in general makes the forums less hostile. Not that this is a very hostile forum but we all know we get our flare ups from time to time. South Africa C4 user 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidle323 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Good work guys! A update to add/delete attachments was really needed and $10 fee is indeed very reasonable. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Africa C4 user Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 @msgreenf- I get an error message whenever I try to subscribe. I assume that the system setup is still wip and you will let us know when we can start subscribing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew H Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Thanks for your works guys! I think having a driver development/creation area would be helpful, even as a subforum to something else. If there's not demand for this, would it be possible to somehow clarify where these topics should go for future posters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAV Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Would love a FAQ/BEST Practices section that newbies could be directed to, rather than rehash it each time. Dedicated threads or guides for things like MyQ, AppleTV, 4sight, composer, etc. eggzlot, Andrew H, LollerAgent and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Africa C4 user Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 I see that there are 2 levels of subscription. I trust that many will go for the Super Subscription and support the Forum! Not sure if the super subscription adds any benefits or just the pleasure of giving more support! Either way, worth serial users subscribing at the higher level to support the great work being done on the forum. Thanks @msgreenf and Dan!

DIY is fine and talked about all over the forum; not sure why adding a sub forum is worth it?

msgreenf Posted February 14, 2022 Author Share Posted February 14, 2022 additional optimizations have been made to the icons, page load times, etc. A few more updates coming (once I figure it out) to make PWA support better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
