| by lunchbox on 2011/2/16 2:47:07 thanks Trabis! the ogr3.com seems really promising! however, what i'm looking for is a way to reshape the forum on my website to make it easier to use. nowadays, it seems there's a trend that the stackoverflow-style question/answer systems gradually replace the functionality of forum. So i think maybe it's a good idea to implement stackoverflow style and functions in xoops. after searching google for a while, i've found several examples of implementing stackoverflow in drupal: http://engineeredweb.com/blog/09/11/building-stack-overflow-clone-drupal-part-1 and some guy even started an open stackoverflow project: http://ra-ajax.org/first-release-of-stacked-an-open-source-version-of-stackoverflow-com http://code.google.com/p/stacked/ some more related information: http://groups.google.com/group/berkeley-drupal/browse_thread/thread/dfd6027ec4cf1a8e?pli=1 http://www.staticbuzz.com/ more thoughts? :) |

| by trabis on 2011/2/15 20:24:05 I don't know about any hack but you can use a service like ogr3.com This is how it works: 1 - create a link in your cbb post template to ogr3.com/yourtaghere, you can use your site name has the tag, tag only allows 33 characteres and a-z A-Z 1-9 and _ 2 - Give a descriptive name to that link like: VOTE UP 3 - When someone clicks on the voteup link it will insert a record of that entry on ogr3.com/yourtaghere 4 - Ogr3 will display the top pages on the last 3 minutes, 3 hours and 3 days. 5 - Ogr3 has rss feed for each tag, you can use an rss reader module to grab the top threads of your tag and display it on a block, this way users do not have to visit ogr3 to see the top threads. 6 - Be aware that other sites may share the same tag, and results for other sites are counted. Choose a unique tag and you should be fine. Look at this example http://ogr3.com/xoops Once you click this link you should see this very page in the top list along with other xoops related news |

| by lunchboxwu on 2011/2/15 17:13:05 is there anyway to implement stackoverflow-like style or functions in xoops? I was wondering if there's a way to hack CBB or other modules to mimic the stackoverflow-like functions: people could vote for each answer/thread & most voted answer (thread) would rise to the top.. etc. |
