ipb408 - You do know you can set up custom advert locations in IP Nexus?.

@Colin S. - Agreed, the RMA system would be excellent, with the ability to use it integrated with shipping or where it can be maintained by the admin themselves. 

I'm glad people can also see these being very good ideas.

Also i thought as well, if we could integrate this with account credit or payouts, this could also be a way of tying them together, so e.g. User sends RMA and requests the funds to go into his account online, it could be sent through the RMA system, using say a different code .... RMA00001RFC (RFC = Refund Credit) for example, and once the RMA'ed item is returned and approved, the system releases the money and reports it, either it be to their bank account or user credit on the forums itself.

Also the RMA system needs to have the ability to refund the price of the item and with or without the delivery cost, as some companies i know, don't always refund the shipping costs, if the extra feature is there, at least people can decided then, instead of being tidied down to one option. 

Okay, not a problem  

Country Restrictions - Basically have the ability to block certain countries from purchasing products, such as hosting, as you will know certain countries have alot higher spam/virus possibility ratio, e.g. China, Pakistan and so on.. If we had the ability to block or if they are from that country, they get a limited package, which had less features and so on, to minimize the risk of Spam and Viruses being spread, also have the ability to increase their features after, so say we see no suspicious activity for 3 months, we can upgrade them to have all features turned back on.

Hosting Settings - Best one for this for example is selling game servers, as cPGS is still in beta, i wouldn't expect this to much but would be nice, but if we could create game servers automatically, this would be an excellent feature (should run exactly like purchasing a hosting account, but instead a game server, and if not cPGS, have it integrate with TCadmin, similar to WHMCS.

RMA - For people like me where i sell computer parts and so on, it would be good to have a returns department, where we can issue a RMA number and have it logged in Nexus, so we can keep a track on it, also we can update the status of it and have it public, so the user can keep track of the RMA as well. This way everything is logged.

Activity Monitor - Have the ability to set restrictions on the hosting, so say if a user doesn't post or login for 14 days to suspend his account, and after 7 days of this period Terminate the account. This is espically good for Free Hosting Providers, so we don't get our servers clogged up with users that are no longer using our services. I currently run this by a small task, thats run every 12hours and notifies me by email to say which accounts have been suspended. I believe you may have helped me design it awhile back, but if this was built into the system its self, it would feel...lets say... seemless.

Buy Features on Listings - For people selling stuff in say a IP.Downloads, Have the ability to buy features, like, Boldness, coloured background... etc...

Directory Listing - Would be very similar to the mod that allows you to add websites and business to a listing area, but like Yellow Pages and so on... but be able to sell the space that on them, so people can pay to put there site into your directory.

can't think how to describe the other one now... I will add it on shortly.

Anyway hope this helps explain, what i mean.

Thank you mark, some of them where copied from other users,

Also what would like to know about the

- County Restrictions for Hosting

 

- A more sophisticated Hosting setup. So say VPS setups, Dedicated Server Management and deployment.

 

- Directory listings

- Claim listings

- RMA System

- Activity Monitor for Hosting (Report generation) I currently run free hosting and after 14days suspends them. (Task run)

- Buy features for listings.

 

Say more?

I am happy to explain, but is it all off it or certain bits of that list, that your unsure about?

Thanks,

Kyle

I had this and i submitted a Ticket and they fixed the problem promptly, as i could login to my client area but not the forums. Check to see if you guys can do that to. As it may be a fault with IP.Board itself, or the way they integrate their users.

Correct me if im wrong IP.
