There are a lot of vbulletin hacks etc that have come out since the inception of the REW forum and we really need to upgrade.
Here are a few forums that inspire me and why.
http://www.daniweb.com - IMO the best tech forum in the world. Dani and I are great friends and I can honestly say she is most skilled vbulletin user I have ever met. What do I like about her forum?
Sections: Syndication is a great idea, have your RSS feeds right out there for others to grab and distribute. - Quickstats right in the nav, that is pretty cool, not a new idea, but something we may look at. I am not sure if I like how she has the search laid out, but it is always a good idea to have the search readily available especially for new members. Featured blog entries for each forum and todays threads and unanswered threads per forum is great! Ad placement not a fan of
Sidenote, need a customized message for "You are trying to access something for members only"
http://www.strategybuilderfx.com/showthread.php?t=17252 I really like the "silimar thread" option available here.
http://www.rawfoodchat.com/forums/ I love the "why I should register" option (reminder different options for logged in, not logged in, think hacks) Think shoutout box?

As the creative mind behind REW Blogs and the director of technology for Real Estate Webmasters, I am here to help you make the most of our platform.
I am happy to teach all who are willing to learn and look forward to building many great friendships along the way.
I do ask that before immersing yourself in the activities that will no doubt dramatically increase your online exposure such as blogging, creating static pages, adding listings and the like that you take the time to read our terms of service and the rules of blogging here at REW.
We are much different than most social media / blogging platforms in that we are a fully staffed and moderated system. Read More
