I found many erorrs in the showcase.... (www.everypoet.net/xoops)

Bold, Itallic, Underline, Strikethrough buttons Give Error and cause you to lose what you just wrote.

Clicking a Smiley's actual picture while writing a comment or posting causes error page to open. Also clicking a persons avatar will do the same.

Somtimes when you post a poem or Comment on a persons poem, there is some sort of unseen error that causes it to be posted more than once.

[COLOR=royalblue]Idea/Sugestion [/COLOR] - A Read Random Poem Button will allow anyone's poems, even older ones to have a chance to be read and commented on... there are alot of poems on this site, 6000+ now, and they tend to get lost, so random it up!
If you make a random poem button, make sure you can choose what category the random poem is. You could put an ALL POEMS random poem button too.

[COLOR=royalblue]Idea/Sugestion [/COLOR] - I suggest a way to be able to select a poem posted multiple times and ask admin to allow deletion (only if really posted multi times to prevent poets from re-posting a poem completely so it is read again. Thats probly the reason they dont allow deletion of your own poems from this site, too much chance of someone re-posting if thier poem is no longer "recent".)

[COLOR=royalblue]Idea/Sugestion [/COLOR] - All threads will become popular in too short a time, suggestion to make it posts in a thread that matter rather than views has been made.

[COLOR=royalblue]Idea/Sugestion [/COLOR] - Multiple Posts in one thread mean large list in profile, grouping (exp. Post - Welcome x3) like this is suggested.

[COLOR=royalblue]Idea/Sugestion [/COLOR] - I think it would be easier on every member on the showcase, if you moved the "User Menu" to above "search" and below "main menu". that would keep us from having to go all the way down to see if we have a new PM or not.


Sorry to swamp you with all this..... I posted all this on that site as well a while back, but I got no response.

The reason you received no response is that our esteemed leader, Béla Selendy, has been unavailable to work on the site for a while due to some strange phenomenum he repeatedly refers to as "life". When major errors occur on the domain, usually the ones Béla has time to repair are those that occur on the main forum, where the bulk of the traffic, by far, occurs. It isn't that the Amplifier and Showcase aren't on Béla's "to do" list; they're just really, really far down.

Oh, I was unaware that there was only one person in Admin of the site. I appologize for complaining so much. I have alot of patience anyway :) I dont mind waiting for erorrs to be fixed. I can work around em.
