Forge Issues

Post by yerg » Sat Sep 17, 2005 10:58 am

A couple of issues which need addressing to make this tool the absolute best

1) Where is the Joomla Menu? 

•  Main | News | Help | Forums | Developers

I realise this tool is independent from the others but let's make life easier to navigate through the maze here. How about a Joomla Menu above the Forge menu something like the attached?

2) It's great to see the support with the listings of so many projects.

The one issue with the old forge and hopefull not this one is can we somehow get projects that are blank or have no code with a big flag on their listing to say so. Nothing worse than delving into what appears to be some useful stuff only to arrive empty handed. Can the system place such projects in a separate category until they actually have some activity?

Oops  :-[ Can this be moved to a more appropriate place?  Joomla Forge - Feedback/Information

We are working on skinning the forge...
However we were more concerned with getting J1.0 out the door..

Andy has done a great job on our sites, and we are confident that we can expect a similar result with the forge.

ditto to what brad said. We're working on Project Categorization that will obviate the send issue you raised and yes, there will be tight integration with Joomla.
