IRON HEART FORUM MIGRATION - Help Us Make the New Forum Even Better
-
Haven’t a Scooby about all the jargon you techno-wizards are on about, but I do have an idea for a feature of sorts…
How about some sort of “Wardrobe” field in a user’s forum bio, which that person can update, should they fancy? A place where we can record every Iron Heart item we own, categorised into Shirts, Jackets etc., and folks can have a stalk if they’re interested.
Not everybody would use it, but I’m sure enough would to warrant its implementation, and, selfishly… I just nerd out for such things.Could even look at integrating such a feature into the classifieds, making it more of a marketplace-style interface, as opposed to formatted posts.

There’s a thread for that [mention]Weft 4 Dead [/mention] here:

I think you’re imagining something more in depth, but if you want to stalk some of us, by all means [emoji6]

[mention]Fadez [/mention] you just blew my mind! That was my biggest beef with Tapatalk I couldn’t @ someone. Your post of the picture is life changing! Thanks man.

I don’t have much to contribute about a new forum. I only speak English, but perhaps sections for chats in other languages? I of course have no clue how easy or difficult that is.

Oh I’m sorry [mention]neph93 [/mention] and [mention]Giles [/mention] you don’t have time to copy and paste every single post into google translate? [emoji2]

I'm frequently visiting the German TESLA forum which is based on Discourse: https://tff-forum.de/
From my point of view this forum software is very convinient. But honestly speaking: I have no experiences with the other options like NodeBB or Invision Community. So my opinion is very subjective…

Top functionality items to improve IMO are:
- Mobile interface
- Search function
- Improved messaging
- Image management/storage
I also like the idea someone mentioned of a wardrobe component that could also be linked in a way to generate For Sale/Trade posts in a more streamlined fashion.

given the following of the forum is now huge. to further better engagement and foster a close knit community, would it make sense to have a dedicated mobile app?
-
Further thought (though I imagine this would already be a feature of any modern forum): the ability to search within threads.

you can do what?
