vBJournal for VB3

[spence2]

There will be people who use your hack for things it's hard to imagine. For example, a journal hack would be perfect for a "writers" forum ... and "journal" entries become short stories or poems users post for the purpose of comments and ratings from others. Or a business site might use it as a means for their managers to relay their thoughts to their employees. They may want comments but no ratings ... etc. etc.

So, IMHO, the more features the better for the future of the hack ... however, the features should ideally remain "options" ... at least for the admin to choose as to whether they fit his type of board.

Having said that, I have witnessed how once a hack is posted, it begins to evolve as more people give you feedback and suggestions. And some of those people (unlike me) can actually help code their "good ideas".

Again, IMHO, people are just anxious to have a rock-solid basis from you and your support in helping them implement a few "bells and whistles" as the hack grows and grows.

yeah i guess i will leave it out for the original release and if enough of feedback and demand comes for it i will implement it back in futre versions.

Talk about interest in a hack! ... This thread is approaching 4,000 views (and only 3,000 of those were me). Thanks again, AN-net.

i am getting closer to completing the listed features for the journal's original release and as of now i am fully updating the file and the templates with usergroup permissions

i hope to be done soon

this is going to be so cool *drools*

I don't think rating a journal entry is that important ... since it really makes it an article system instead; and there are plenty of those already out there.

here is an updated look of how the journal's index will look

I am so excited!!! I can't wait to see this hack released!

What does an individual journal look like?

Seems you definitely have a Hack of the Month on this one.
