1.add create post option to top of page with a rounded box with plus sign inside

The way layout for this is fixed and would require custom development to do something like that. I’m not a developer so I have been using a combination of open source scripts/plugins where they exist and commercial/paid plugins. I simply couldn’t afford to hire someone on for customization like that even if I really wanted it. It’s just beyond my meager budget.

2.single tick for mark as read and double tick for mark as read all forum, click it again to undo
Interesting idea. What forum platform does that? I can keep my eyes open, but I’m not aware of a plugin that does that. 

3.pasting image directly into image box should directly paste image
I am using a plugin for the current capability, but I definitely am keeping my eyes open on this one to see if there’s a better implementation (again a plugin) I can find. I’ve done a ton of research on these tools — including for uploading images — and took the one option I could find. But I’m certainly still interested in this one.

4.add no of views  per post

This is something I wanted from the beginning that I’m sure we would all expect would be part of the forum platforum, but isn’t. The only plugin I could find is 13 years old which predates the most recent version of the forum platform — by a lot — and represents security risks and conflicts with other scripts being used on the site. Nonetheless, I still tried it. It didn’t work. But again, I’m keeping my eyes out. As this is more of a feature we’re used to, but not a critical feature, I really would love to have it. So if I end up finding something, I will certainly implement it.
