Introduction
This mod allows designated membergroups the ability to mark topics as important (or not), and to be able to view the GLOBAL list of topics marked as important.

Membergroups having the Can Mark Topics As Important permission will be able to see a new menu under Moderate called Important Topics, which will have a listing of the topics that were marked as important.  They will also see a new button called Mark as Important for "unimportant" topics, or Unmark as Important for "important" topics, in the moderator buttons area

In order to ensure compatibility with previous versions, permission to view topics marked as important is automatically implied if permission to mark topics as important is granted.  To do otherwise doesn't make sense to me....

Admin Settings
Two new permissions are available in Admin => Members => Permissions for each membergroup:
o Can Mark Topics As Important
o Can View Topics Marked As Important

In Admin => Configuration => Modification Settings, there is a new setting:
o Where to place "Our Important Topics"

Compatibility Notes
This mod was tested on SMF 2.0.13, but should work on SMF 2.0 and up, as well as SMF 2.1 Beta 2.  SMF 1.x is not and will not be supported. 

Changelog
The changelog has been removed and can be seen at XPtsp.com.
