Implemented [Suggestion] Forum Leaders?

[DarkGizmo]

I haven't seen a staff or forum leaders page. is there one? If not. I suggest making one and making it customizable (which groups are on it, etc) like in vB3.

I don't think there is one right now. I think this is in the works, but not 100% sure.

I think so. Also, would be great if that page includes permalinks to usergroups for those forums that have a lot of staff.

 

[DarkGizmo]

I would think it's essential. Every major forum software has one in one form or another. It'd be quite foolish not to have one here

 

[Shamil]

I can see this having many benefits, such as a page listing VIP or as such, just staff

You can create a page node that queries through the template the users from a certain usergroup. So you can make your own: Meet the Team page.

vB format forum leaders page serve no purpose at all imo. As Floris highlighted it is pretty easy to create a Meet the Team page with more details easily.

I wouldn't go as far to say it serves no purpose... For me its allowed me to see all the staff members on a vBulletin forum fairly quickly.

But it quite often gets mixed up and shown wrong... I agree a custom page is a lot better for this porpoise..

Just my 11 cents...I think it is useful for new members especially to come on a forum and see who the staff is, somehow.

 

[Derek Ivey]

I think the software should, by default have a forum leaders page, but have a setting to change the url in case someone decides to make a custom one. I guess they could ultimately just modify the template to change the url but a setting would be nice.

I would love to see something different if they have a leader page. Maybe an option to have a meet the team sort of thing where staff can add some info.

I like that idea. I like it when you can Meet the Team and have more information on the staff.

A flexible, modern 'meet the site staff' page would be welcome. vb's showgroups page is a fail IMHO.

That's exactly my point

Porpoise's on the internet - those clever buggers - I've always wondered about the sound they make, now I know its their dial up tone

I have to agree with Floris, this can easily be achieved with a page

Especially when you can't choose the sort order of the groups appearing there. It makes no logical sense. I'd like to have an option for a short little bio, as well.

And with staff members able to edit the content about themself on their own.

You can create a page node that queries through the template the users from a certain usergroup. So you can make your own: Meet the Team page.

Sounds to me like I can blow queries which I place (somewhere) and use the template to fetch the results and place it in there?

Those Pages, are going to have hundreds of great uses. This is just one of many,
