Hello Genodians,
The content on Genodians.org has been so interesting and varied that I
worry we might lose valuable content in the sheer volume as time goes
by. Here are a couple of ideas that I thought might help (probably
already on the "to do" list, but just in case):
1. "Sticky" / "Featured" Posts - Things like the announcement for the
latest release, other important news, etc. should probably be kept
at/near the top or in a special area.
2. Search / Filter Tags - I think it would be helpful to add "tags" to
the posts to make it easier to find items on a certain subject. I
would recommend defining the format and adding the tag data as soon as
possible, even if the feature isn't implemented for a while - it's
always harder to go back over a lot of data than to enter it as the
records are added.
Just food for thought...
Thanks!
Yes, I agree that these features are good to have as they would make
Genodians.org much more convenient to use. But this will require some
scripting to implement these features. Currently, Genodians.org is
implemented as a simple web site with static content, only.
Indeed. The "featured post" feature is the easier of the two, and
shouldn't be too hard to implement with the current system.
I only brought up the "tags" idea at this time, because it will be a lot
of (thankless) work to go back and add tags later. The data format
could be defined (and data entered) before the feature is actually
implemented.
Like I said, just a thought.
Thanks!
