Paradox of Options
Keep it limited to three or four
The bottom sticky?
Do you mean the social bar?
Yeah
It's for sharing, so it has to have several options
I'm not really sure if it's wise to remove any in this particular case.
In the redesign, it would be better to remove the some
Overall, a sticky is a bad UX practice
But I understand the need for it.
I meant that
Less choice= more action
It's consumer economics
I understand. I'll think about it.
And about homepage
The /amp page and another homepage **could** be bad for seo
I may be wrong though
@Men Are Human don't waste time editing a faulty theme.
@Indigo I'm not too sure if it would be since it's supposed to be something you can do SEO with
Have you checked any free bulletin software
Can try them on a local server
I'm personally leaning towards xenforo because free forum software is extremely insecure. From experience, you get walls of spam and the Devs often don't care.
There isn't much difference afaik when in comes to top free ones like mybb
Or you could try discourse
It has a better more modern ui
And needs very less customization to get to working state
@Indigo I really like the look of mybb
Discourse not so much. It requires you to basically stream it from a core site. If they decide to take it down, you are done.
Does discourse has self hosting option?
Then again, you'd need to be pretty competent to hack Discourse because it's compiled software.
You basically create a clone of it on a cloud server
You could self host discourse even on a local computer
Possibly, but my web connection isn't as stable as I'd like
I meant local hosting it for testing purposes
And then if it satisfies the needs, we can migrate it to the bluehost server.
It is decent enough forum software.
I think it's the easiest to set up
I'm wondering if we need a forum though. Forums are slightly old tech now. I'm wondering if Voats might be a good replacement
Along side the discord server, it might be overkill
Yeh, I support that.
