Forum Update New Steps for UNIX.com

Dear Everyone,

Thank you for all the great comments, feedback and patience during our recent modernization efforts at unix.com.

Now, I need to decide where to go next, as we move into the next phase.

Some of the ideas I have are:


  • Make the UserCP experience and all those non-public UserCP pages responsive for mobile and other devices other than the desktop. This seems like a low priority since these pages are not public.


  • Redesign the user profile pages. However, this does not seems like a high priority for members and others have suggested we use the "blue side bars" feature for this and do not redesign and do unnecessary work.


  • Add new code to make it easier to upload attachments. This seems like a "higher priority" item, because uploading attachments is not easy, so I am considering some new code to make it very easy for users to upload attachments.


  • Add new code so guests can give thanks / thumbs up for posts. This seems like somewhat a low priority.


  • Add new code so guest can post questions and replies. This seems like a good idea, but I have mixed feelings because of the possibility for increased spam and a work load increase on moderators. This is related to the next bullet point:


  • Add new code to permit login with FB and other social media accounts. I hesitate to do this because I'm not very happy with what is going on in the world of social media these days and the lack of privacy and transparency. Personally, I have disabled all FB and other social media logins on all websites. I am working to decrease my personal dependency on social media and not increase it.


If anybody has any "burning ideas", "strong feelings" or features they want to see, please post them in this thread so I can think of the path forward for the next phase of site modernization.

Thanks

NAME
lpusers - set printing queue priorities SYNOPSIS
lpusers -d priority-level lpusers -q priority-level -u login-ID-list lpusers -u login-ID-list lpusers -q priority-level lpusers -l DESCRIPTION
The lpusers command sets limits to the queue priority level that can be assigned to jobs submitted by users of the LP print service. The first form of the command (with -d) sets the system-wide priority default to priority-level, where priority-level is a value of 0 to 39, with 0 being the highest priority. If a user does not specify a priority level with a print request (see lp(1)), the default priority level is used. Initially, the default priority level is 20. The second form of the command (with -q and -u) sets the default highest priority-level (0-39) that the users in login-ID-list can request when submitting a print request. The login-ID-list argument may include any or all of the following constructs: login-ID A user on any system system_name!login-ID A user on the system system_name system_name!all All users on system system_name all!login-ID A user on all systems all All users on all systems Users that have been given a limit cannot submit a print request with a higher priority level than the one assigned, nor can they change a request that has already been submitted to have a higher priority. Any print requests submitted with priority levels higher than allowed will be given the highest priority allowed. The third form of the command (with -u) removes any explicit priority level for the specified users. The fourth form of the command (with -q) sets the default highest priority level for all users not explicitly covered by the use of the second form of this command. The last form of the command (with -l) lists the default priority level and the priority limits assigned to users. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -d priority-level Set the system-wide priority default to priority-level. -l List the default priority level and the priority limits assigned to users. -q priority-level Set the default highest priority level for all users not explicitly covered. -q priority-level -u login-ID-list Set the default highest priority-level that the users in login-ID-list can request when submitting a print request. -u login-ID-list Remove any explicit priority level for the specified users. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. non-zero An error occurred. ATTRIBUTES
