Some Sugested updates to TappedOut

TappedOut forum

Posted on Feb. 23, 2012, 11:32 a.m. by swamp_water

1) On any text box that will be submitted to the site, make sure to have a preview area or a button for adding card names. Suggestion would be to use ajax to populate a dialog box that checks for card names and user names.

2) On all posts, if you posted it you should be able to edit/delete it.

3) Remove links to features that currently 404. i.e. regenerate graphs, print to .txt, etc..4) Add "print this list" (with same options as on deck page) to all card lists features like "trades binder", aquires list, etc...

5) Alert reader page that is the same as the drop down from alert icon but with actual post and links so I can see all the updates without traversing the site over and over again.

6) Ability to post prices to want and have lists in your trading binder.

Hmmm, oh yeah, recognize carriage returns in forum posts.

Hey YeaGo. How do you post a price on a item in your trade binder?

5) is my idea of the drop down alert from the red alert icon on the top right but in a page format with the post written out.

So instead of

Notifications

it would say something like

Notifications

6) You set prices and sell cards for cash? I thought people generally traded in which case there's no price

5) So you want a blurb of the content of a comment in the actual notification?

6)No I don't do it for cash but I do match value of cards. Some people use Star City Games values and some people like Magiccards.info for prices. So it would be nice to see how much a card is worth when trading.

5)No that would make the notification blurb too long. it's actually really good the way it is. I was suggesting the same thing in a page called "subscriptions" but with the message content added to that page. So new page not dropdown blurb. Make sense?

Also take a look at jquery ui and the dialog feature. it's really stable and would work well for the "preview your comment" functionality.

5) GOTCHA. Cool idea.

6) Card prices are on the card page...? You want them like displayed with the cards themselves? Hrmpf. I think I need a new pop-over that contains that and to put that everywhere, rather than just on the binder

6) not sure how much I want this now lol. I never noticed it on the card info page. maybe that's better. Nevermind.

Cheers, Paul.
