Product Managment / Internal Discussions Forum Improvements (internal use only)

Some misfeatures IMHO:

[ul]
[li]User CP should be spelled out - I think most users won’t see CP as Control Panel.
[/li][li]There should be a nav link to the forums in the header and/or the breadcrumbs belong below the nav bar.
[/li][li]I don’t think I should see the register link if I’m logged in. At least it doesn’t make any sense to me.
[/li][/ul]
For what it’s worth, here’s a link to hibernate’s forum, which uses similar software: Hibernate Forum

There is a “user_cp” variable whose default value is “User CP”.

Should this be “My Forum”? Any other suggestions ?

I don’t know how to eliminate the register link, but I’m sure it’s possible.

Something like “Preferences” would seem appropriate. Or perhaps “Profile”.
