Ideas Rewrite

1. Ideas Rewrite

   #1

   In progress and too tired to go on. Will get an early start tomorrow and continue.
   
   What I have done and what I intend.
   
   Frontpage is the only place I have worked. Through that work I have probably broke the rest of the ideas...but I don't care right now. That format will change. Until I get some test ideas it is hard to figure out what it looks like. That part should be ready tomorrow.
   
   If you are Cheka Man (or an admin) you can play with it. Otherwise it is all broke.
   
   What is happening:
   
   I am showing the ideas on the frontpage inline with the submissions by date. Cheka is the the brave soul who submitted one and is my only guinea pig.
   
   When you click on "view" you get the pop-up modal. What Cheka and admins can do from there is edit it in that pop-up window. Once submitted it will show you what it looks like right back in the pop-up window. If you don't like it, you can edit it again. So edit, submit, check over and over till you are done and dismiss the pop-up. I intend to have the same thing for inputting ideas. So if you are doing something, you can add an idea in the window and not disrupt whatever you are doing.
   
   So, for one, ease of use of the ideas and frontpage viewing and super simple voting will hopefully give them a shot of adrenaline.
   
   Once I get that part working then I will attack the viewing pages of them. They will all use that same view/edit pop-up thing single viewing/editing.
   
   Then figure out how to incorporate them better into subs if that is your intention....and into favorites as requested. Favorites is another beast I want to tackle though so you may have to wait on that. Getting ideas working in a decent, easy way would be a good thing.

   Made the main announcement on this. More or less done except for bug fixes and tweaks. I have a feeling that the frontpage will have some issues once we get more....and then once we get a lot of ideas.
   
   Hunting for my next project for the long weekend.
   
   Thinking I might have to attack the "I am Newish" set of pages. They always were leftovers of a great thought not realized. Also....Regions!! They may get a pretty big revamp.

   Not that it really matters, and it may not be worth looking in to, but I'm on my mobile device (windows phone) and can't see your test idea properly.

   I'm not worried about it. I just thought I'd mention it in case you were.

   How about allowing linkage syntax in ideas?
   
   eg:
   
   [idea#689|The Abyssal Key]

   Ah, you mean inside the actual idea?
   
   Good idea actually.
