To admins,

How about installing a mod syntax highlighter for pb forum? Its much easier to read codes in colors.

There are already finished mods for phpBB that does that. But the problem is when upgrading the forum it would require a lot of work.

Tell me about it...

I have quite a few custom modifications in Invision Power Board that enhance user security by not allowing them to enter certain information in their profiles and other modifications that enhance the forum's security by hiding other information.

It's a pain in the butt every time they release an update because I usually have to go and re-do all my mods.
