Widget on dashboard and (forum) friends online

[Caitlin Tobias]

What I really would like to see back is the widget on the dashboard, with the latests posts/threads!

Also - but that is more a 'nice to have' -  a widget on this communitysite that shows your  forum-friends with their on- or offline status.
At this moment you can see 'online' and 'new members', but to see your friends (and their status),  you have to open your profile.

Completely and totally agree with this - I'm not sure I'd have ever visited the forums in the beginning as a lurker if some of the topics on the Dashboard hadn't caught my interest.

i'd love to see the forum widget back too after getting so used to it my dash doesn't feel the same with out the latest forum feed showing up

Oh yes, please bring back the forum threads on the dashboard.

 

(The only time I was really put off that was when there was that awful spam.)

People that frequent the forums are a small minority in the realm of SL. Most of the people who don't use the forum don't need more widgets cluttering up their dashboard.

But perhaps more SL Residents would use the forums if they had a way of actually seeing what is being discussed there - that's what drew me to them in the first place. Just 'knowing' that there's a forum somewhere is really not enough to get ordinary residents involved - hide the forums and you really do make it a 'minority sport'.

The whole point of a widget is that you can choose whether to use the functionality to display information IF YOU WANT TO! The Lithium Settings has a bunch of options regarding 'Home Page' that don't seem to be used currently, but I am sure could be linked to our main SL Home/Account Page. Also, has anyone worked out yet whether Forum Friends become Inworld Friends and vice versa?

The resident who provided the previous content, if any, has replaced it with this generic statement.

This "Forums Feedback" forum is a odd forum.I still do not know who is supposed to get the feedback
