Table and Jumpto codes, Recent and Pinned topics (Four suggestions)

[Lightning Dash 327]

Firstly, can we have table codes implemented? Of course, normal posts wouldn't ever make use of tables but there are times when a table can be a great asset to the forums. You never know when you can make good use of them and they can even be used for things like scoreboards for forums games, not to forget, index topics. I was planning on using tables in my profile and in a topic I'm planning to make in the future but noticed we don't have them.

 

Another BB Code I'd like to see is the 'Jump to' codes. Again it's not something normal posts are going to make use of but like tables, there may come a time when they really would come in handy. They're mainly best for large, multi-category topics/posts where there's several sections of an opening post like a signature and avatar archive. They're great if you're using a table of content as members can be taken directly to the area of a post they're looking for. I have been thinking of creating my own signature, avatar and render archive topic in time and as I'm expecting it to be quite big, I'd make great use of both these codes especially jump to codes for a table of content.

 

Also, I've noticed there's a 'Recently discussed forum topics:' feature at the top. I do admire that only there doesn't seem to be anyway to enable/disable which sections topics can appear on it. I've noticed topics from the Roleplaying section appear on there but to be honest, I'd rather be able to disable topics from that section appearing on it as I never participate in such threads. There have been several occasions where a topic title's grabbed my attention but after entering the topic, I noticed it's a Roleplay one which does get a bit annoying. I'd appreciate the option to enable/disable which sections can appear on the Recent list.

 

Finally, Pinned topics are all well and good but they're grouped in the exact same place/way as normal topics are and some times I find myself checking to see if it's not a pinned topic because I don't usually participate in them. What I'm suggesting is can they be grouped in a different 'box'. Like in Sugercube Corner, the sub forums are grouped in a different box, they even remain on top as you navigate to different pages within the section. There are sections where there's a few pinned topics and loads of tagged topics. At least for me it can be a bit of a nuisance.

You can filter Recently discussed forum topics:'

 

 

There is that settings button

 

After that you can choose in which forum ares you don't want to see topics appear

Relating to that I would suggest adding include function there because as far as I know you can only exclude them and  not include
