Hi @admin,

Silly me, this seemed like the right/best place to respond RE: moderating the forum....

Yes, of course - any help I can provide, I will gladly!

Did you get my email regarding this? More info below...

Sure, no problem... please feel free to open a topic for me - wasn't sure where to open it.

Like a number of forum users here (BTB3000, edwardcox, VeCrea and lots more), I will always try to help where I can. Not sure how many I solved as such but I definitely tried to help!

Anything I can do to help support the community!

1 suggestion - this may have been suggested before but I'm not sure - could we have some sort of polling on the forum? Or, maybe another component for suggestions & ratings?

1. Maybe kunena has something built in to achieve this?
OR

2. Maybe the addition of a component like JVoteSystem found on the JED... Just found it from a quick search and on the positive note it also allows user comments and embedding of youtube videos which could mean it would take care of the whole process

Strangely, my expertise are not really in web development but in teaching and music/media production, and more specifically, using media and music to teach. Web development is just something that I've picked up along the way out of necessity really. Therefore, I think the best help I might be able to provide would be in the form of short, specific video tutorials... That's where I suppose a poll might come in;

• propose a list of video tutorials to the community
• community can request/propose more video tutorials
• community votes for them
• I could make them every N days/weeks according to the requests/votes

How does that sound?

Naturally, written instructions can accompany the tutorials too.

I'd be more than happy to add cook logos/branding to the videos too if you'd like?

I know it's not on the same subject, but you can see some of my video tuts on how students can use their MACs to make interesting study-aids here on youtube. The video demonstrates how to convert their text into speech automatically with a little automator script/app that I wrote, then add it to a music track in GarageBand to make studying anywhere with their iPODs/MP3 players easier and more fun.

Let me know what you think?

Thanks,

Gez

Congrats audibleid on making global moderator status

Thanks @BTB3000!

Just been looking at your build error. I wonder if admin's earlier updates have inadvertently broken something - a broken upload or something.

It appears as if one of the models in the builder isn't being referenced properly or something...

I'll try ant build my projects to see if I get any errors too.

k+ for audibleid!
