Nexia’s Multi-Type Forums

This is the first step to generate a complete new way to manage your forums. Once you select the type of section you want to have in that forum (we’re in the forum editor here!), you save and have a complete suite of settings that fit the type you selected… permissions are driven the same way, templates and functions as well.

HERE is the actual list of possible types:

‘ads’; # classified ads
‘album’; # personal albums
‘anonymous’; # anonymous posting
‘answer’; # answers.yahoo.com like
‘articles’; # articles and docs
‘blog’; # personal blogs
‘bugs’; # bug report system
‘colophon’; # site references
‘dictionary’; # glossary, dictionary
‘docs’; # pdf, docs
‘feed’; # podcast, rss reader
‘guestbook’; # site guestbook
‘knowledge’; # knowledge base
‘link’; # links repository
‘lyric’; # lyrics related artists
‘movie’; # movie database
‘nfo’; # torrent and the like
‘photo’; # photo albums
‘poetry’; # poetry listings
‘poll’; # poll survey
‘recipes’; # recipes book
