I wanted to mention a few things that I miss at wpForo. Maybe these things can still be added.

1.) Better settings for private messages: Will I receive messages from everyone or only from specific ones?
2.) Friends: For example, do I only want to receive private messages from friends? And you could send friend requests to users.

3.) Notifications: I already said that before, but just write it in here again. 🙂 Please a other way than emails...
4.) Verified users: For me, an important addon would be that you can verify users with a check mark behind the name. Whether many need it is the question. But it is also "only" a check mark behind the name that only an administrator could add. Maybe you can do that? I need it, because I want to identify more famous people. 😉
5.) Consequences (user subscription): So subscribe to the activities of others ... is not the most important, but maybe something is planned anyway?
 
Thank you for your attention. Maybe there are others who want such features.

 
Regards,
Bastbra

Something more 😉

6.) Online Users: What are they doing? Example: Read "Topic XY" or "Read private message" since 2 minutes or something

7.) Better online list: extra site for all online members and last online time in normal member list

8.) groups? So users can creat groups and chat with them. Also other members can see that they are in a group...

Regards,

Bastbra

This are only my wishes! 🙂

Any news for this? I still have one point:

9.) Live Chat (shoutbox like MyBB)

I could pay for these addons because I want them with pleasure.

Dear @bastbra,

1.) Better settings for private messages: Will I receive messages from everyone or only from specific ones?

We've added it this in our to-do list, but can't add it at the top of it. There are a lot of other necessary features needed to be added at first.

2.) Friends: For example, do I only want to receive private messages from friends? And you could send friend requests to users.

This is also in the to-do list. 

3.) Notifications: I already said that before, but just write it in here again.  Please a other way than emails...

The feature will be added in near future releases. 

4.) Verified users: For me, an important addon would be that you can verify users with a check mark behind the name. Whether many need it is the question. But it is also "only" a check mark behind the name that only an administrator could add. Maybe you can do that? I need it, because I want to identify more famous people. 

In this case, you can use wpForo member reputation system. It's also a good option you can use in your forum.

More info here:

https://wpforo.com/docs/root/members/member-reputation/

5.) Consequences (user subscription): So subscribe to the activities of others ... is not the most important, but maybe something is planned anyway?

This is under active development. 

6.) Online Users: What are they doing? Example: Read "Topic XY" or "Read private message" since 2 minutes or something

Here you can use wpForo core Forum and Topic Viewers Tracking feature. More info here: https://wpforo.com/community/wpforo-announcements/wpforo-1-5-4-is-released/#post-19994

The "Read private message" since 2 minutes" will be added for sure. 

7.) Better online list: extra site for all online members and last online time in normal member list

The wpForo online widgets can be used in this case. Please read this doc: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-sidebar-and-widgets/wpforo-widgets/

8.) groups? So users can creat groups and chat with them. Also other members can see that they are in a group...

This need to be clarified. We don't follow you well. 

9.) Live Chat (shoutbox like MyBB)

We'll add it in future releases.

I understood. A "only friends messages or all messages" should be enough for me, thanks for adding!

2.) Friends: For example, do I only want to receive private messages from friends? And you could send friend requests to users.

This is also in the to-do list. 

3.) Notifications: I already said that before, but just write it in here again.  Please a other way than emails...

Nice to hear this!

4.) Verified users: For me, an important addon would be that you can verify users with a check mark behind the name. Whether many need it is the question.

Yes, I know this and I use this since two years. I mean a verify mark like on Twitter. So I had one person to verify for now, but in the future... more people. Only this verify hook is what I need on this point, I hope you understand me.

5.) Consequences (user subscription): So subscribe to the activities of others ... is not the most important, but maybe something is planned anyway?

This is under active development. 

Nice, hope that it also add to notification?

6.) Online Users: What are they doing? Example: Read "Topic XY" or "Read private message" since 2 minutes or something

The "Read private message" since 2 minutes" will be added for sure. 

Also on the member page?

7.) Better online list: extra site for all online members and last online time in normal member list

Yes, I also use this since two years. I mean an extra list for this. So a list with time of last activity (10 min. timeout), place, name or something. But its not so important.

8.) groups? So users can creat groups and chat with them. Also other members can see that they are in a group...

This need to be clarified. We don't follow you well. 

As an example: by phpBB you can use the feature of groups, so one member can open a group and invite other members. When they joined the group in their profile is the short form of the group (group: The Test Group, short form: TTG). Also the clan can chat together. I don't need this feature so much, because it isn't so important for me. I can also try this with usergroups, but this isn't what I mean. So forget this point, it isn't important enough. 😉

9.) Live Chat (shoutbox like MyBB)

We'll add it in future releases. 

Thanks!

Thanks for your answer! Here are my resonance.

Regards,
