One of the things I try to do on my own bbPress-based forum, is trying to make it more and more user friendly. By saying user friendly, I want my users to click less, as that is really annoying. And give as much as information possible on the page they are.

Think of:

• Adding a search bar on every page

• Navigation should be visible from all pages

A few options that you’d need plugins for:

• Upload plugin, so users can upload images

• Signature, users love that too

• And PM system

Worth considering:

• AJAX replies (just like we have in vBulletin)

So if you’re gonna incorporate those things into your theme, think about the design.
