Badges with hot links

Posted 11 January 2011 - 11:18 AM

I would like to suggest that each badge under a persons avatar should also be a hot-link to something which describes the purpose of the badge, and maybe also takes you to a list of all the people who share that particular badge.

I seem to recall a list of moderators, but there are many other categories.

Not a bad idea in my opinion. Will give the newer members a place to learn the difference between a Forum Leader, Expert, Moderator, Admin, etc.

I have sometimes wondered why they do not link to the page Dogstopper mentioned, but I suppose it is just a tiny thing and the admins probably do not have time.

That would make sense. Just let the badges contain links to that page, I like that idea.

I can link the "primary group" which is the non-forum leader, swampies type stuff to a member list I believe, but the secondary groups don't have a way to display without coding up a new page at the moment.

I'll see what I can do for ya guys :)

skyhawk133, can you not just put a link around the code that shows the badges, so that it is like a big link?

Yeh, but my goal was to link to a page that showed you who had those badges :) Not just what the badges were about.

What my impression is that he's doing is making it link to the Members List with the current people in that group...or I could be wrong...but that sounded like it.

Edit: Ninja'd...at least I was right.
