[QUOTE="msj33, post: 28850, member: 16747"] Hey Everybody Forums, and plugins is VERY confusing for noobs and others. I'm checked out both Mediaportal webpage, forum and Plugins page. I think there a major lack in webdesign and categorizing of plugins. 1: The Mediaportal Menu should not be a dynamic button with rolldown effect. It took me several times to figure out the navigation on the Front page. Maybe its just me, but i think is should be more user-friendly Solution: Menu should be visible at all times. 2: The plugins are found at 3 different places Your link [url]http://download.mp-fr.com/en/[/url] This Tips & Tricks link [url]http://nolanparty.com/mediaportal.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=11[/url] This Plugin link [url]http://nolanparty.com/mediaportal.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=29[/url] This is too confusing to the cummunity - In the forum there are lots Tips, Tricks and Plugins that work 100%. But also a lot of plugins that are out of date or not working. Also lots of the plugins is without any description, so you don't know what they do. Solution: These plugins and tricks should be controlled by an admin who puts it all on 1 page - and only 1 simple page with the following(Description, manual to install) Not all the comments and replies to the author(This should still be left in the forum). [b] The Plugin/Tricks by the end-user is what keeps this project alive og going. Some should be implemented for good in mediaportal, others to be installed manually.[/b] But one thing is for sure - The community is getting bigger and so are the different plugins/tricks, so we'll have to present it more clearly and user friendly like when Mededio implemented categorized Plugin section with easy-to-install system in meedio. Why don't do like Meedio projects Plugin page: [url]http://www.meedio.com/maid/[/url] Or Winamp: [url]http://www.winamp.com/plugins/[/url] Or Mozilla: [url]https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/?application=%257bec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384%257d[/url] Working plugins on the plugin page should be categozied same way as the above websites. Is it possible? Do anyone have the time and knowledge to do so(Cuz i don't:-() If this was made possible I think I would contribute a lot to getting the Mediaportal bigger, better and a LOT easier:o) Greetings from Morten :D [/QUOTE]
