Add Sidebar Menu to Kitely HomePage?

Post by Sarge Misfit »

I'm thinking that adding a menu on the side of the Kitely HomePage would increase the use of these Forums as well as readership of the Kitely blog, FAQ, reporting bugs, etc. Currently, a person has to scroll to the bottom of the page to find the links, which themselves are in smaller font. Not everyone thinks to do this. Furthermore, the current format gives those features the look of begin after-thoughts, or an attitude that they aren't considered to be all that important, which I know is not true.

Adding a menu on the side of the page would bring these to people's attention, make them all that much easier to find. Heck, I remember some time back asking about having an "official" Kitely forum. A few people stepped up and created their own. But it was a little while later that I was told that this one had been created. I just didn't know about the link's location. Making it easier to find the Support link is definitely a good thing, especially given how Ilan and Oren and others are so responsive to dealing with issues. Making it easier to report those issues goes a long way towards fixing them quickly, thereby improving Kitely for everyone.

if not a sidebar, perhaps a drop down on one of the main buttons

..and a link back to the main page from the forums ! :)

A unified theme across forums and the main pages would be lovely..
No rush :)

I agree with ya Sarge...a sidebar that is not fixed similar to what hypergridbusiness does would be nice. Maria just added the option to close it too which was helpful since I have to often zoom to read stuffs anymore and it would get in the way.
