Wait, I think I just coined a new truism. We all know any app will eventually expand until it can do email. Maybe every forum app will eventually expand until it's reinvented Slashdot. Ooh, and on the user page maybe forum participation stats. ie: This user has posted 72 times in Politics, 19 times in Flame On, and 0 in Flame Off. And while I'm at it, since it would only be a matter of adding one more term to the WHERE clause, whatever stats you compile board-wide (top posters, hot topics, etc.) you can also do them on a per-forum basis. Okay, let me sum up: 1) On the user page, last X posts. 2) Whatever stats you decide to do board-wide, also do them on a per-forum basis. === Microsoft offers them the one thing most business people will pay any price for - the ability to say "we had no choice - everyone's doing it that way." -- [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=38978\|Andrew Grygus]

Something like that should fall back into the realm of zIWT, and I'm not completely comfortable with getting in and messing with Zope. My efforts would be a single page that gives you "at a glance" details into zIWT, with all links just coming back into zIWT. If I start doing anything more then that, then you're really looking at redoing alot of what zIWT is. And, I'm not sure I have the time for that, personally. :) I'm pondering a pluggable, customizable interface so you guys can login to the "portal" and then pick what views you want to see on your page, and where they'll be placed. But, even then, that's probably v.02 of the portal. But, I agree, I would love to see those stats as well. I'd love to see the user profile page working here. Any other Zopers out there? Anyone?

Not to mention half of the search stuff is already done in Zope (just hidden). Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
