But I think and I feel that the local supportsites are important sites that throug the years have build their one usergroup and have got their own identity. I think, from that perspective that it's not nessesary and maybe even not wanted that they have to give up there onw identity by giving up their URL and personal design. It's my personal opinion that this would be a great loss
Loss of what? If this is about:
- being part of XOOPS world family
- support for XOOPS
then what is wrong with having a consistent "look & feel" across all support domains?
Sure, almost every Webmaster wants to show off his/her skills and wants to make changes, but why not to use your own Website to show it off, but stick to a standard "look & feel" of the "official" local XOOPS support site?
We have to be more "customer driven" in our thinking. If a user who speaks 2-4 languages wants to switch from US site to German and then to French support site, why do we want him to spend several minutes before he figures out the local design and navigation, because everybody has something totally different?
Wouldn't it be easier for him if the sites would be consistent in their design?
There should be a difference between an "official" support site, and Joe's, Jean's, or Johann's personal XOOPS oriented Website.
