Ideas,Suggestions,Feature Requests / Pay actual attention to Profiles
« on: November 26, 2011, 07:15:26 pm »
It'd be nice of profiles weren't treated the way most BB systems treat them. Like a dark little corner to shove people's personal information in case anyone ever wants to look for it.

Profiles should be treated as important as message view. The layout should encourage people to visit them, use them, etc.

Profile comments should be a default feature, all information should be available on a single page instead of having to tab through, etc.

I'm not saying to emulate Facebook profiles, but maybe just bringing them out of that "dark corner" would be nice. :)

Make them something fun to view as opposed to something annoying to mess with when looking for someone's post list.

To add unsolicited commentary, it would be nice to have a very basic default theme. I mean... NO "fun" styling, no CSS tricks, no images used at all unless necessary. (IE: No background images, but icons for actions are okay.)

The main/only thing I hate about SMF is how much time you have to dedicate to template editing trial and error.

Like... "Oh, here's catbg, that must be what I have to edit. No, wait... that didn't change the category background. Okay, I quit." :)



It would be nice to use a forum system for once that actually lets the end user have a blank canvas to style, instead of only putting in what the Devs think looks good, as that sort of judgement is highly subjective.
