Blog suggestions

Posted 23 May 2010 - 01:19 PM

1) Let people delete blogs. I created one by mistake, thinking it hadn't worked the first time, and it's just hanging there like an old, unwanted sock.

2) Make it clear what "pinned" means with respect to entries in the community blogs page - because almost all entries on the first couple of pages are pinned. One or two aren't, which makes little sense to me either. Pinned entries in forums are ok, because there're usually only a couple. In the blogs pages it's overwhelming!

3) Let people turn off "featured blogs" - this is basically just filling up a screen's worth of space with stuff that I've already seen every time I visit the blogs page. If I can't chose to dismiss it, it's pretty much spam.

I think we should have a modification on the board, that could integrate our WordPress blogs with the community, instead of creating these ones here. ;)

There is the option to link your external blog to DIC. Look under the blog options.

I know there is the "website" in the profile, but I don't see anywhere else. I would like to put my Wordpress blog in-place of my blog here, so that when a user clicks on the "blog" icon below my avatar, they are taken to my Wordpress blog instead of my DIC blog.
