Hello, I'm really glad to know 1.0 will soon be out soon, and i thought i should write about a few GUI improvement ideas i had while using vegadns since a year now. Keep in mind i know most of these will feel somehow useless to "power-users".
Most settings resulting from changes i'm suggesting could be edited once and for all from config.php.. Here they are: . The abbility to allow or not, all users to change default TTL, SERIAL, etc for their domains (I had the case where people would set TTL of 1MS hopping that would improve dns resolving .....) . I saw logs save pretty much everything, I was wondering if on the "add domain" form, we couldn't specify for how long the domain was registered.. Therefore we could have (based on the date the domain was added), an exact idea of when the domain should expire.. How many times do we have to deal with people that don't receive warning from their registrar (cause for exemple they changed email..) and wonder "why, oh why" is this domain not working.. (of course we do take the abbit of doing a "whois" first.. but not all clients know what a whois is ..) . I (only) have around 35 domains in the db, and i must say, clicking "domains" to only reach a domain starting with letter "Z" sounds a bit too much.. I was just wondering if the alphabetical index, couldn't be displayed on the startup page directly, rather than having to click "domains" first, to than see the full listing and alphabetical sorting options.. (or some option like the $per_page, but in this case would become $per_domain to select how many domains to display per page, thus lowering the time needed to access the alphabetical sorting options..) . The abbility to sort domains per domain extentions. .The abbility to let users add or not subdomain or new domains. I had a case where a someone tryed to add as many domains as he could.. just for .. "fun".. Therefore being abble to just disable adding domains.. could help in some setups. That's all for now, maybe more will pop in my mind.. Take care & keep up the -oh so good- work. ps: again thank you for the sanity checkings !! Best regards.
