How to improve the Forum

Hi,

if I read something posted by a member and think he has interesting views on coding, I would like to be able to access the threads he started and the threads he have replied to. By including all this info when clicking on the members name underneath the photo it should be displayed on the members page with links.

Thanks..

RE:

@cAlog_Support

Hey Guys, I would suggest you guys should consider using Uservoice for Ideas, Suggestion & Knowledgebase Management. Have a look at www.uservoice.com. One of the major problem with the current forum is; that we can't sort the most voted or supported ideas. So that the Sportware team can prioritize the implementation of ideas according to the votes. Would love to see

We will consider your suggestion, thank you.

Just discovered Calgo. It looks awesome and seems to have a great potential. I am missing some organisation of information here. There is a lot of useful information in the forum but

I do not see much of the developers support.

The API is sketchy and lacks proper introduction and context information. There is many question to answer. So instead of reading some kind of a programmer's guide I will be making small changes to the code and by trial and error learn the capabilities.

Simple questions like:

can I pop up a window with a message? or

a dialog to supply information on some event?,

can I call other application to do some processing,

I cannot find immediate answers.

Other thing, can I start a new thread? I can only reply to others's post. Can I address questions to Calgo team directly?

I am new to C# but I know what coding is about. 

This tool can be a real gem if some more info is revealed to users.

Thank you

RE: RE: Improvements

Thank you for the kind words as well as suggestions. 

can I pop up a window with a message? or

a dialog to supply information on some event?,

 Please see: [/forum/calgo-reference-samples/475]

can I call other application to do some processing,

Yes. For example:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:\\Windows\\System32\\notepad.exe");

Other thing, can I start a new thread? I can only reply to others's post. Can I address questions to Calgo team directly?

You can start a new thread in any category section. e.g. /forum/cbot-support.
There is a button on the top right corner.
Of-course you can direct questions to the cAlgo support team directly.

I am new to C# but I know what coding is about. 

Please visit the following links to familiarize yourself with C#

Hi,

as the forum threads are growing in numbers it needs to be sortable in a database so we can filter and search the forum.

Normal Threads     Author      Replies      Views      Last Comment

By clicking on the above tabs it will filter the section so we can easily find threads.

 

Thanks..
