After reading through a discussion that started two years ago (and concluded this year), I have realized that there is no other subaccount mod, nor is it a simple process. While I would love a full blown subaccount modification, it does not seem like a viable mod. Even so, I am very much welcome to the idea if someone could ever give it a shot.

In it's place, I would like to introduce another idea. See below.


VERSION:
SMF 2.1.14

DESCRIPTION:
An upgrade to the SMF Subaccounts mod that works with SMF 2.1 and is able to convert over subaccounts from previous versions (2.0.17 specifically).

OR

A brand new modification that allows users to pick what character they want their profile to display as. Upon picking a character, the username would display their name, a different profile picture/signature, and a post count for posts made with that character. Along with that, an area within 'updated topics' that allows you to see updated topics per character. Thinking tabs like this to keep track. This idea is the facade of being a separate account, not being an actual account.


Proposed Modification Details

FEATURES:
REQUIRED:
- Ability to change profiles per character
- Each character would display their own (over the main account's):
     - A username
     - An avatar
     - A signature
     - A post count
- Each character would also have their own tab within 'updated topics' to view new replies to topics they've replied to (alphabetical and/or by character creation date)
OPTIONAL/FUTURE:
- Future features may include character awards/badges, but that is not required, nor anything desired currently
- I am also open to the idea of having an customizable title, personal text, or membergroup for them
- Potential merging of character profiles

PERMISSIONS:
- Creation of characters (per membergroup)
- Max character limit (can be adjusted per membergroup)
- The ability to edit a character's username/avatar/signature/post count for their own accounts (along with an admin/mod permission to do so)

TIMEFRAME + FUTURE:
As of right now, I'd prefer for this modification/update to be done sooner than later. It is vital to making decisions on how I am archiving/enabling posts on my upgraded website, along with how to handle roleplay posts in the future.

In the future, I would be open to making this for public use. We would have to discuss those terms, along with whether or not payment would be changed in that aspect.


PAYMENT:
Ideally, I would like to do payment through Paypal or a similar platform. Along with this, I am open to paying for future upgrades/additions if need be. Personally, I am not familiar with how these things are priced, so please message me or post your quotes as need be. As for time of payment, please also state your preference.


If you have any questions, feel free to comment below or message me privately. Thanks for reading!
