Thumbnail not visible (actual mini images of uploaded files) for files (imgaes, pdf etc.), instead general mini image (of pdfs, jpeg) is visible

When you upload a file ( inside community Library ) general icon of PDF or JEPG is visible as thumbnail, it should be actual image of uploaded file. I've tested it on several environments like Connections 6 CR5,CR4 and on 5.5 versions also.

The ability to search through deleted wikis.

Report view for all Members with last date logged on

As we clean up a lot of our Member lists for our Connection Sites, I think it would be helpful to have a way to see if someone had not logged on in a year or more which might help me with cleaning up names on the list.

Please add additional fields in communities

We would like to see custom community extension fields (similar to Profiles) which would allow the user to e.g. maintain confidentiality level, archiving status, community sponsor, community type, etc.
