Hiya,

Any chance we could introduce a bit more structure to the forum?
Just thinking we could add more categories to split up the coding threads, strategy threads, api discussions etc.

I don't mind doing a bit myself if you want to give permissions ...
Cheers.

The old fred77.co.uk did not have much structure and was very quick to parse the latest posts with any reading lots of topics. The downside was the topics were hard to track..

In a nutshell - I'm not planning to change I believe the balance is right between structure and free-flow. However I am open to persuasion and requests.

On the other hand, I tried to add some more structure. For example:-
http://diybetfairbots.lefora.com/2008/05/10/code-examples/

Quote "Please post code example or links to code examples. To keep this topic as a clean list of examples, please do not discuss the examples in this thread - use the General Forum." And guess what? people still use the topic for discussion, so if a bit more structure is required posters have to try and respect the structure.

Regards,
Brendan aka bmsleight

Hi Brendan, how well does this forum support code? Does it have any other options you can enable? If there's no preview/edit option can it have a hidden forum/thread that we can make test posts on or something?

Fred - it does not suport code pasting that well, I have created a test category.

However for code I would use a pastebin. For example:-
http://pastebin.ca/1068476

And set the expiry date as required.


Hope this helps,
Brendan
