Optional Feature	Definition
Calender	Enabling this feature will open up a selection of options to enable your users to view the calendar, add and review events, see users birthdates on a calendar and much, much more.
Advanced Profile Fields	This enables you to hide standard profile fields, add profile fields to registration, and create new profile fields for your forum.
Drafts	Enabling this feature will allow users to save drafts of their posts so they can return later to post them.
Integration Hooks Management	This feature allows you to enable or disable any integration hooks added by addons. Changing hooks can prevent your forum from working properly, so use this feature only if you know what you are doing.
Karma	Karma is a feature that shows the popularity of a member. Members, if allowed, can 'applaud' or 'smite' other members, which is how their popularity is calculated.
Likes	Likes is a feature that allows members to like a post to show their approval and popularity of the message content.
Moderation, Administration and User Logs	Enable the moderation and administration logs to keep an audit trail of all the key actions taken on your forum. Also allows forum moderators to view a history of key changes a user makes to their profile.
Post by Email Management	This will allow users of your forum to reply to emailed notifications and personal messages and have them post directly as a reply to the appropriate thread or PM. This provides a familiar mailing list feeling. Use of this functionality will require additional setup steps on your hosting provider.
Post Moderation	Post moderation enables you to select groups and boards within which posts must be approved before they become public. Upon enabling this feature be sure to visit the permission section to set up the relevant permissions.
Paid Subscriptions	Paid subscriptions allow users to pay for subscriptions to change member groups within the forum and thus change their access rights.
Report Generation	This administration feature allows the generation of reports (which can be printed) to present your current forum setup in an easy to view manner - particularly useful for large forums.
Warning System	This system allows administrators and moderators to issue warnings to users, and can automatically remove user rights as their warning level increases. To take full advantage of this system, "Post Moderation" should be enabled.
Search Engine Tracking	Enabling this feature will allow administrators to track search engines as they index your forum.
