We need more "Active Threads" blocks.

Post by Kommander »

I only react to threads that are in the Active Threads box. I am sure most of you do as well (you can answer in my poll if you want).

I think we need more Active threads like "Active ESOC Talk Threads," "Active Age of Empires 3 Threads," etc.

What do you guys think of this? :hmm:

Only 3 options? No Garja option?

Such a poll noob.

Answer is no as well. Just use the forum menus.

Either go to the Unread posts page or personalise what you want to see.

Moved to Site Suggestions :flowers:
I like the idea, but I don't think adding extra blocks is the best way to implement it. How about adding a filter (similar to Twitch Streams), that allows you switch between All active threads, active AoE3 General threads, AoE3 Strategy, etc?

We've had this idea for a long time (actually an idea for a complete revamp of the home page), but haven't worked on it cause we're all so busy. This filter shouldn't take long though, so perhaps I can do it in a few days.

Tbh 99% of what i see here is thought active threads, i click the "foruns" button once per month, but changing the whole site to my needs isnt a good idea since diferent people use it in different ways

Maybe not creating more blocks, I would suggest having the option in the control panel to chose "how many threads in active threads box".

I would chose 30 easily.

I think should just make the active threads scrollable. I mean, why the fuck not?

I only browse the forums through the Active Topics section.

I suppose it depends how much time you spend on the forum. If you are like Jakey, you'd probably never have more than two unread threads anywhere on the forum, so the Active Threads section is quick and sufficient. For others, that is not the case currently, and they are unfortunately forced to go to /forums.php.

@EAGLEMUT I think we can do it by adding a recycler list(a list which is scrollable and loads some posts say 5, only when you're at the end of the list) but its heavy use of js

What about adding page 2 to active threads, or a drop down menu on which section (like the filter)?
