What do you guys think of the RM 1.1 additions?

Resource Icons and Featured Resources

Resource Manager Custom Fields


IMO these are going to take the RM to a whole new level. I know I use it for a games database and reviews so adding an icon will be awesome. Now if they would just let you add a Resource Node to the forums so you can place some resources in the path of typical forum browsing that would be cool.

Create Resource Node


Any thoughts? What have some of you guys used the RM for? Do these updates change how useful it is for you?

 

I really like the icon to help identify the resources.
I like the custom RM forms too, I'll have to think of a way to use them here.

 

Currently you can have custom fields using Waindigo's custom field mod. I hope he makes an importer for that when this is updated.

 

Ah, I really like @Waindigo's mods. I have a few installed here and have installed them on client sites too.
I haven't tried that one though, do you have several custom fields with it on joystick?

 

I did the game rating sidebar with it it. http://joystickrequired.com/resources/shadowrun-returns.14/

That's one thing that worries me. They don't mention sidebar so hopefully Waindigo will get them to work together. Or a mod that extends the default.

 

That looks very nice!

 

Thanks. I have a list of additions I want to do but time....

 

Like a contest one

 

lol no I meant for the RM. Chris Deeming just released a contest mod though.

 

I see that, it looks interesting as well.
I'd like to see some live links for it before loading another $40 into the site.

Like what? I really need to dig around and utilize the RM better on this site.

 

Just more custom fields and such. I may wait for 1.1 to see how different it will be. It's a tough go since I don't have a lot of Zend knowledge so I have to figure stuff out.

 

I like the way the "featured" resources are listed on xf
http://xenforo.com/community/resources/

 

I like the improvements, though I hoped for a lot more. It seems like a quick release inbetween. Most of all I like how the XF team simply implements whatever the customs vote for.

 

Some good improvements coming soon, may need to pick up a copy
