Allow custom Forum Placements!

[Captain Politik]

I am so tired of Bad Idea's being all the way at the bottem, when theres shit like

PEOO, Bat country, Flora, Fauna, and Green Living, etc in the way of better forums!

I want my own customizable one. Where LOL internet, ABC's, LLR, Bad idea's, Der Politik are the first ones I see!!!

The only problem is you guys bitching that the 3 first important forums will become obselete WELL I dont mind having "official bullshit" still up there but having the REST customizable will save me time

Thank you

[Captain Politik]

wtf no one?

Great idea, lets implement this.

[Former FBI Agent]

Pretty sure that would be a pain in the ass for him to do. Should make it so we can hide individual forums.

Like our biggest concern should be inconveniencing some admins that don't do much of anything but sit back and collect donations anyway? The userbase pays for the site and supports the advertisers that in turn give Zok even more cash. I think it wouldn't be too much to ask that he spends a little bit of time making Zoklet more user friendly.

[coolguy420]

this is a great idea and it is really easy to do all your doing is changing the order of the forums that would be so easy to do and that way i wouldnt have to try to remember what the forum is called and find it in this 5 page long list of forums of which 4 pages i dont care about and will never use

the official forums dont get used much anyway. like the "news" one they can just get rid of that completely and Archives what is that even for? it doesnt get used much either. if people want to view Help or Ideas then they still can theres no reason to force them at the top i think it would cut down on bad suggestions in here

[zuperxtreme]

Pretty cool idea actually. :thumbsup:

I'll see if I find anything later on.

[The Cheshire Cat]

If you really want the forums to be changed around just make a grease monkey script yourself. Not that fucking hard.

some of us have lives. we arent all nerds like you who can spend all day sitting in front of a computer. if you guys cant do it just say so theres no need to act like a prick about it but at this point i dont think anyone expects you to act any differently so why bother right :rockon:

If you have a life, why do you give a fuck if it takes you 1 extra second to scroll? Why even care so much about a forum if you have a life? Fucking urgghhh...

Also, want to get to BI faster. Make a bookmark. *click click* you're there. Or hell, you could hit End and Page Up on your keyboard and BI is RIGHT THERE. Why should WE make life easier for you, and maybe harder on others when you can make life easier for yourself. Fucking fuckity fuck...

[NamelessNom4d]

It's not hard to scroll down man, and you get used to it visiting certain forums enough - it should become reflex.

Or you can just bookmark the forum page.

Or you can make a greasemonkey script - even better.

There's really no reason at all to make customizable forums.

:picard:

[coolguy420]

how is the OPTION to customizing the order of the forums going to make life harder for anyone? i dont understand why so many people are against this theyre obviously just trolls because if they dont want to use it they dont ahve to it wont effect them at all

[zuperxtreme]

They'll have to write the code so you can move the forums around as you like; that's the burden I suppose.
I think I'll give it a shot later next week, it's good practice I suppose. Not today, or the weekend, but I'll update when I do. :thumbsup:

[Craigslist.org]

and a drop down over here http://www.zoklet.net/bbs/images/misc/navbits_start.gif
similar to quick links so we can access all the forums easier.

Not really. I still find it odd that bad ideas isn't near the top like it was on totse.

[Captain Politik]

so anything on this so far?

[zombo.com]

yeah, not happening unless someone comes up witha vbul hack or a script which allows people to do it. PM slice 760, he seems to have an idea.

maybe you should read zuper's reply and i mean the one where he said he might give writing one a try if he has time. you could also pm him and ask him for tips on how to be a better leader because no offense but he is really on top of things around here

[zombo.com]

i saw his reply. hence my "not happening until someone writes a script to do it.
now go reread slice's post. then take a big step back and go fuck yourself.

Seems like Zuper has this one handled Zos, why don't you take a fucking seat and stop attention whoring.

OP, what should I give priority to?

This: http://imgur.com/Uceqm

Or this: http://www.zoklet.net/bbs/index.php

[is all mememememe with me]

i normally just use the user cp or whats hot. if i do have to go to a specific forum tho i can see what the OP is getting at, BI is a pain right down there but i can quickly lower the scroll bar to the bottom and its right there, other forums like 'this just in' and 'the porn forum' are difficult to find for some reason. even with the forum jump they just dont seem to stick out very obviously and i sometimes end up going up and down the page looking for the fuckers. but i'm still cool with it, lol. dont care really if its changed either way but putting the more popular forums to the top would probably make things easier for a lot of users.

[zuperxtreme]

I mod TJI and I scroll up and down looking for it too. :p

[is all mememememe with me]

TJI is defo the hardest to find. i find it easier to find something from that forum in the whats hot section and then just use the link at the top of that page, than trying to find it in the list, lol.

I say 2nd one ALL the way, I dont even know where the forum jump thing is???

What do others say about his post btw, I dont know the general consensus ( although Its probably with the 2nd one)

[zuperxtreme]

Ah, damn. :P

I was working on the 2nd 'cuz I thought everyone used that one:

Each item is sortable and the order is saved in a cookie(or will be). I'll make it so wherever there's a forum list, it'll arrange based on your saved order.

Also, another link here:

I'm pretty busy though, I'll let you guys know when it's done. : /

i thought i was the only one. i swear that fucker hides some days.

forum jump is all the way at the very bottom of the screen. I asked a few times months back about moving it somewhere useful near the top, but no one supported the idea. <shrug>

[zuperxtreme]

Yeah, sorry, busy week. I'm about 60% there. Dialog is pretty much done, saving to cookies, etc. Now just gotta do the actual reordering.

Here's what I got so far if anyone is in a hurry and knows jQuery or something: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6704709/Zoklet/zoklet_forum_organize.user.js

I'll post when I'm done.

[Craigslist.org]

Wouldnt it be easier to have each forum in a div then just have an x button next to each forum section so you can remove the div?
http://api.jquery.com/remove/

[zuperxtreme]

But he wanted to reorganize, not remove. : /

[Captain Politik]

we dont want to flat out REMOVE certain forums as that would just kill off a lot of things

[Trix Are For Kids]

This is a wonderful idea. So much more user-convenient, which makes people come back. It would be good for the site.

[Captain Politik]

well that guy siad hes almost done with it so hopefully..

[Captain Politik]

so wtf its been over a month now

[coolguy420]

goddamnit antonion i said to hold on like weeks ago and your still here running your mouth you dumb mexican just be patients you piece of shit im beginning to wish id never voted for your shitty idea fuck you faggot

[zuperxtreme]

lolol :o

I'll get to it when I can, I got other shit on my mind right now. I've already posted what I did, anyone else is welcome to continue with it.

Also, a month fucking flies. : /

[zombo.com]

why is there a poll on this? i thought someone was writing a script that would allow it to be opt in user side?

no zuper youve done enough already please dont spend any more of your time on this extremely minor issue. no one is going to appreicate what youve done anyway because no one uses chrome. you should move this thread to completed & lock it

[zombo.com]

wow zup, good job. for better visibilty once it's done we could pull out just the link and explanation then sticky it somewhere.

[zombo.com]

leaving open since it's still a work in progress, archiving so we don't lose it while zupe's still working on it.
edit: or not, did you know we can't archive in here?

you sirr ... is a worthy mod. Altho tbh I think the custom placement are really shit functions ... i appreciate those mods genuine mods who give something to the place instead of just taking.

even if its useless to me. thumbs up.
