Wanted to use this topic to outline some feature requests for any coder who wants to help with this. I believe Xenforo is coded in PHP but I don't know much about this stuff.
The gist of the plugin needs to basically sync ranks between forum and server. There are a few plug ins that do this already, but I am not sure if any of them work with Forge or our perms system.
Heres a few of them if you wanna take a look
XenPErmissions: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/xenpermissions.201/
XenSync: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/xensync.29535/
Thats the basic functionality we need for the plugin, but optionally I'd like to take it farther. I'd like users on the forums to be able to use their Minecraft avatar face as the default avatar once they sync, but with the option to change whatever they want. I'd also like for their minecraft username to be displayed on the forum, maybe under their profile picture.
Theres another system that already does this: hypixel.net
Go check out their forums and their user profiles. They have an achievement/trophy system synced with their forum as well which might be something we want to look at.
If anyone else has any ideas on how to improve this plugin and sync the forum with the server, let me know!
