I Hugh, this is great idea.
I have been meaning to present an idea for the community wiki to have some kind of tag for say forum templates.
The idea I have for this. Is often we have folks asking about using discourse for things like a Support Forum, Learning Platform etc.. Even sometimes more obscure uses like a Table Top RPG.
Collecting content from topics like those & even thinking of various uses. We could create a new resource with a master Topic used as an index.
- Support Forum Templates
- Learning Platform Templates
These Topics can house Hosted by Discourse, Communique(so?) etc.. with recommended plugins & Theme components etc . As well as a post for Self-hosted.
Hosted templates would focus on the plugins & reference what plans are needed for a particular plugin for use.
With tips & tricks and even point folks to the Marketplace if they need a custom layout, plugin, etc..
