Customer Area

Not sure where else to post this as there isn't a 'Suggestions/Ideas/Feedback' section

In the customer forums I think it would be easier to locate information, support questions, skin modifications on specific skins if each skin has it's own sub forum.

It would keep the conversation for each skin independent of each other and make it easier for customers to find information or get the support they need for that skin by keeping it all in separate sub forums.

The structure would be something like:

Customers Only (Category)

-Announcements (Forum)

-Customer Downloads (Re-Direct forum)

-FAQ (Read only forum)

--basik (Category)

---Skin Modifications (Sub-forum of basik)

---Skin Support (Sub-forum of basik)

--Gravity (Category)

---Skin Modifications (Sub-forum of Gravity)

---Skin Support (Sub-forum ofGravity)

See the screen shots below

I think it will make it a lot easier to find information for each skin and the FAQ forum can list the most common questions that are submitted across all the forums.

There are also not a lot of posts in the the current forum so a mod can go through at the weekend and move all of the posts into the correct new forums

What do you guys think of the structure?

I like it, not a bad idea, have to see what Ehren thinks.

To add to that how about another general forum called 'Showcase' where users can post a thread with a link to their site for others to review and provide feedback on any tweaks they have made etc?

I don't think it's a good idea. Many tutorials or custom questions may apply to various skins. Eg. by reading tutorial on how to remove avatars from a forum list based on the Engraved skin, I was able to perform the same action on my copy of Infinite style.
