eezstreet Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 By "expand" I really mean "bring down a level". I'd like to see the activity of the forum at a glance, and with so many forums within the Mod Project forums, it almost warrants its own section on the forum, for e.g. like how the JKHub gaming section is done.

Circa Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hmm. Good idea. I'll see what I can do! Link to comment
Onysfx Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I agree with this. Only being able to see the shortcut to one post for all those mod projects....ya eezstreet is right. Link to comment
Fighter Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 The issue with this is that as more mod forums continue to be added, the more you will have to scroll down on the forum page and eventually that could get out of hand. therfiles likes this Link to comment
Onysfx Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 True, but older mods could be archived. And things could be....squished together a little more right? xD. Link to comment
Futuza Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Yeah if a mod's thread hasn't had a post in it for 6months+ chuck in an 'archived mod' folder. Link to comment
therfiles Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I personally think the system we have is great. It gives the viewer a list of all the mods we host at a glance. I think that it might make the page way too long if we implement this, and I don't see how the archive thing will work because it will essentially be the system we have now but with only a select group, making navigation even more confusing.

eezstreet Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 The issue with this is that as more mod forums continue to be added, the more you will have to scroll down on the forum page and eventually that could get out of hand.Not if the mod forums are at the bottom, or can be hidden via breadcrumb. (similar to the stuff in the sidebar on the right. It gives the viewer a list of all the mods we host at a glance.It doesn't, though. You have to squint to find the (completely disorganized and hard to read) list of mods, after finding the section they're in. And there's other mods that the JKHub network hosts that don't have mod project forums (Gunslinger's Academy/JKG have sites hosted by JKHub, but you wouldn't know it unless you were to check the bar, which makes things even more disorganized if you go by that logic). Though, being bigger isn't necessarily a bad thing. It makes the forums look like they have more content, which is good. Link to comment
therfiles Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I can see that. The mods are listed alphabetically, too. And if GSA and JKG wanted a mod forum, we would be extremely happy to provide them with one, but they haven't requested it. But you've got a valid point. I don't think it's that small, I mean it's just like all the other forums, the subforums are listed right below the main forum. And sure, you could toggle the showing of all these forums, but it's practically what we have now. I'd love to hear some more opinions on this matter. Link to comment
eezstreet Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 The mods are listed alphabetically, too. Yeah, but they aren't organized in a top-down list fashion, which means you have to start at the beginning of the list and work your way through it, as opposed to going through the list and searching for the first letter to match, which makes it a pain to search through that list repeatedly.And if GSA and JKG wanted a mod forum, we would be extremely happy to provide them with one, but they haven't requested it.You said that it provided you a means to see (at a glance, which I also disproved) all the hosted mods on the site. I was merely commenting on the semantics of what you're talking about. therfiles likes this Link to comment

I'll talk with @@Circa and see what we can do... Link to comment
eezstreet Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Looks much better. Circa likes this Link to comment
Circa Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Now I gotta figure out a way to restore collapsing sections for those who don't prefer it. Link to comment
