VS Admin recommended posting V5.x suggestions here.
As PB Staff/Developers release updates periodically I am one to appreciate the general feature of being able to import/export a bulk amount of data (such as themes, images, etc.) that would otherwise be mundane and repetitious to repeat on the same or across multiple forums.
I would like to make a plausible suggestion for expanding the general import/export concept to Categories and Boards, ranks, and member groups. Granted, I assume lots of fine-tuned data may not be cross-compatible BUT the overall import (or export) of data to be used elsewhere would come in handy.
In a scenario for perspective, I have a single forum that I use merely for testing physical design and logical coding and I fine-tune what I desire but then have to replicate from scratch the roles, groups, and/or categories & boards, which is indeed mundane and repetitious but it works to say the least.
It's not a big concern to worry about and I know it'd be a back-burner patch and that's cool. Some might also call this lazy but I say "work smarter, not harder".
Thanks for the consideration as always!
