Title: Link to Community site
Post by: beginner on June 22, 2010, 04:47:36 pm
I'm missing a(n obvious) link to the Community site. I guess that many forum users never heard of this source.

My question was to put that link to a more exposed position on this very page. Not in a post here where it's lost after 2 days.

Might be because the community site is still in beta status :-/

I just hope this is not going to be one of the google type of beta's that go on forever :o

The beta status will not go on forever, but it will last a while longer. We are still adding things and moving items out of the 'corporate' web pages into the 'community' pages.

Not sure what else we can do to make the community site more visible, apart from add a sticky note to one of the forum categories. There is a cell devoted to it on the Sparx Systems home page.

The community site was created with input from the forum contributors, and there was discussion about it on the forum. Its Beta release was announced in the Latest News category. begginer himself has posted four references to it (as in "go and read <this> on the Community Site").

A link from the regular sparxsystem.com would probably help. (on the same level as the forum, support, partners...)

@Geert - would that be more useful than the current link in the cell in the Latest News column on the home page? That at least provides a comment/explanation that the community site exists.

I'm not in charge of the web site, but I would expect that there will always be some form of comment and link to the community site from the home page.

Perhaps you and/or beginner could clarify what you'd really like to see in this context?

What Geert said: on top of this site near "Forum".

P.S. Wasn't there a familiar Vogon voice? Where was that on display?
