Hello Stovin

Really great to see the addition of RSS and community features (blog / forum) to the site.

There is real potential for the youth work sector to build some good critical discussion in the spaces you are offering here if introducing people to the space is well fascilitated.

I look forward to seeing how things develop and supporting the developments if I can...

 In the context of encouraging discussion, just a query. As someone who's tried to make a few contributions on the Blog page, I found it a touch frustrating that there is no Preview button prior to the Moment of submission. I've seen this facility elsewhere and it's quite helpful in allowing the would-be contributor an overall view of their thoughts and how they sit on the page. Is there any chance of incorporating this facility on the Blogs/Forum page?

Cheers

Hi Tony, You can preview some comments on the forums and blogs pages. There is a tab on the right at the top of the box where you add a post or comment on a forum (apologies if you have spotted this, but it isn't that obvious so I thought it was worth pointing out). You can't preview comments on articles or replies to blog posts though. I'll look into this and see if there is anything that can be done.

 Cheers,

In the forum posts it would be useful if the brief comments used to start off most of the comments included a link back to the relevant article - I get the magazine and I know that I could look up the article in the main site but I'm a lazy browser! :-)

Also on the main page for the blogs/forum there doesn't seem to be any sense to the orders of the listings - some of the 'most popular' have only 1 reply! It would be better if these were more up to date.

Having said that I think the sites looking good and its good to see some early discussions starting up.
 

Thanks you for the feedback!

 You're absolutely right, Mike - a link back to the original article would be extremely useful. We're working on it but I make no promises as to when we will be able to get it right.

 The "most popular" stuff will make more sense once the forums are more populated.
