Yelp Style Highlight Top Members and Content

A discussion was initiated by CharlesWil suggesting a feature that highlights top members and content on the home page, similar to how Yelp does it. This would give visitors a quick overview of what the community is about and its branding.

CharlesWil explained that current forums often have static home pages with content posted by date, which doesnโ€™t reflect the current community. He mentioned Mumsnet as an example of a platform that effectively starts conversations on its home page and invites people to take part in the forums.

CodingHorror requested a screenshot with examples and commentary to better understand the idea. CharlesWil provided screenshots of Yelpโ€™s home page, which highlights members and their posts in real-time, and explained how this concept could be applied to improve the communityโ€™s home page.

something like home page that highlights members and content the same way yelp does would be a good features. Just some emphasis what the community is about! :smile:

Apart from the domain of your site and titles of posts.
Thats only thing that gives you a bit of branding about the community

I hope thatโ€™s helpful idea! :blush:

Can you provide a screenshot with some examples and commentary maybe marked up?

Thanks for your reply Jeff

The email we get for the digest gives you a very quick over view
what the community is about and it high lights best members posts.

That idea can be taken further!

At moment I have wordpress blog that can highlight members top topic posts
but wordpress is static.

This is problem with nearly all current forums. They always have a static home page
with content posted by date. That doesnโ€™t reflect the current community

Mums net does quite a good job of starting talks on itโ€™s home page
and inviting people to take part in conversation on the forums

http://www.mumsnet.com/

So something like yelp home page itโ€™s high lighting members post in real time
or mums net weโ€™re it trying start people talking on the forums

Yelp you can see they high light members

Everyone looks seems the same and the topics too
