  • 7. My Profile Link: Generates a dynamic URL that links directly to the profile page of the currently logged-in user. This convenient URL simplifies the process of users accessing and viewing their own profiles.

  • 8. Pending Topic: Enables admin-controlled approval of forum topics to prevent spam or inappropriate content from being published until a moderator approves them.

  • 9. Advanced Attachment Features: Increases the maximum file size and allows multiple files to be uploaded at once. Provides the option to delete attachments along with forum or topic content.
