IMPORTANT: Private Forums feature is LIVE - Page 22

Long term plans:

There are a lot of plans for Private Forums and will give more customisation features to the team managing their forums. Some of the long term ideas we are exploring are:

• Creator can manage the complete look and feel of the forum. Header / Footer / Different Widgets / Color etc. As we want to give more control to them and we work on building the platform and providing the right tools.
• They will also have the option of making a subdomain so that they can access the forum as mynewforum.indiaforums.com and to take it even further we can even offer private domains like for example www.mynewforum.com.
• Ability to add separate pages / blog to their forums.
• Add analytics so that Creators / Managers can view how they are doing and which area they can improve.
• Forum / Topic Suggestions using Machine Learning

This new addition to our site has a huge potential and I am hopeful members will make the most of it.

Do share your feedback / suggestions so that we can improve the same.

In our next update we will be addressing this and expanding the role of Managers also.

Manager will have the following:

• will be able to Moderate (Trash post / Edit Post / Edit Topic / Lock Topics)
• will be able to accept Join requests so that members are accepted faster.
• will be able to block a member from that forum.
• will be able to invite other members to join the forum.

Creator will have all powers of Managers and:

• will be able to update Forum settings.
• will be able to update Display Image and Forum Banner
• will be able to add / remove Manager
• will have the power to Lock and Archive the forum (we will add this feature later)
• will have their name displayed in the Forum list.

Cheers..

So right now what can the manager do? Are they just normal members?

Currently they are able to make the topic sticky, FA, trash the topic, edit the topic.
