Description This is just a little idea that I had for the group system

What is it?
it's an idea for sticky comments, so that on a group account, if there is a comment of relevance to do with the journal that has been posted e.g. if a journal about group recommendations was posted and someone has a particularly good idea then it can be stuck at the top as a good example, or if an admin of a club is giving information about some club updates and another member wants to add something more to the info but cant edit the journal then they can post a comment if the admin sees fit they can stick it to the top.

How does it work?
if you look in the top right hand corner of all the normal comments there is a blue up button which sticks the comment in the blue "sticky comments" section and comments in that section have a red down button to remove it from sticky comments if it is no longer needed.
i think there would have to be a limit on the number of sticky comments, somewhere around 4-5.

What do you think?
if you like it, say so! if you don't like it, tell me why and how you think it could be better

Also-- the blue border is a bit... big. In my opinion. Maybe you could use a small thumbtack icon in the upper righthand corner of the comment? Or maybe the sticky forum thread icon. (the yellow encircled "i")

Or just a thinner border.

I think that would fix the visual of it also. I think stickies are a good idea.

it was to make them stand out
although i do admit that it's maybe a bit over the top

I like the idea-- but as I said on the original comment thread pictured in the deviation (), couldn't you just have the important information that you would put in the sticky commentΒ  in the journal? That way, you could edit it, etc.

Who would sticky the comments? Moderators, Founders, or Co-Founders of the groups? Could you change the settings as to who can sticky certain comments?

Would sticky comments be just for groups-- or for the whole dA interface?...

i think it would work best if the ability to stick comments could be set by a rule (like most group stuff)
i don't think it'd be necessary to have it for the whole of DA, i think it'd be fine for just groups

as for the edit journal thing, i just think it's a quicker more personal way of showing the info and it also means that people can reply to the sticky note with whatever they think to the new revelations

Would admins only be able to use it?
If so then it's a great idea!

DEVlANT In reply to QuintonCharles [2009-08-14 21:15:51 +0000 UTC]

yes only group admins have the ability to stick comments, otherwise there could be some arguing

I love it! By the way, how do you make a club?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

DEVlANT In reply to Ansheen [2009-08-14 21:06:57 +0000 UTC]

clubs can only be created by administrators at the moment they are still in alpha testing
