Feature Requests

Please post any feature requests in the comments section of this Article. I will compile and organize feature requests in the details section.

Current items on the Todo List:
Version 3.2.7
  • On the Settings page, Allow Anonymous should be hidden unless Enable Comments is checked.
  • On the Settings page, the Page dropdown should be hidden unless the More Articles checkbox is checked.

Version 3.3
  • Make it easier to add and modify custom templates
  • Improve the integration of Categories. Consider using LoadControl to load the Edit page to enable adding categories from Articles.
  • Make categories optional rather than required.
  • Add option to display article details on separate page (no other controls) or same page.
  • Consider Details Page Templates
  • Look at using URLTracking and the URL Control
  • Make both searches search the Details field.
  • Only let admins or creators edit an article

Future Versions:
  • Make it possible to view a list of categories and when a user clicks on a Category it will show all articles in that category.
  • Add option for, "Display Description on Details page".
  • Consider putting some of the Edit Article entries in an Advanced section to simplify article entry and/or allow admins to Hide features on the Edit Article page
  • Consider additional Meta-Tags (description, title) and put in separate optional section section
  • Add Import Announcements feature
  • Consider making search go to an individual item (details) rather than page with list
  • Improve Approval mechanism: add reject, e-mail notification, and a filter for viewing Articles awaiting approval.
