Site Updates - in the next week

#463336

Postby Clariman » December 5th, 2021, 7:21 pm

This is a reminder about the following planned changes which were announced last month. They will go ahead this week and are likely to be done bit by bit.

Changes
  • The Forum group that just has an "Announcements" board will be renamed to "About the Site". Within this will be two new boards. A "Welcome to the Site" board will have useful content for new members and give them somewhere to introduce themselves if they wish. The other new board will be "Improve the Site - Suggestions (constructive only)".
  • "Room 101 - Issues and Escalations" will be split into two boards (1) "Room 101 - Escalations" where you can escalate moderation decisions to the Site's Admin team, (2) "Room 102 - Issues and Complaints" where you can raise more general site issues e.g. about the site performance etc or other problems or complaints.
  • The "Lemon Fool - Improve the Recipe" board will be archived (locked) because its function will be replaced by "Improve the Site - Suggestions (constructive only) and "Room 102 - Issues and Complaints". Constructive suggestions (of which there are many, thank you) will go in the new "Improve the Site" board described above. Any complaints and issues will be handled in Room 102. Note - general moderation discussion will still not be permitted but we will reassess that over time.
  • The "Lemon Lounge" group will be moved further down the list. The community aspect of TLF remains important so this is not an attempt to relegate it, but it shouldn't be the first thing new users see when they visit the site. It will probably go in between "Managing Your Finances" and "Lemon-Aid".
  • "The Economy" board will move into one of the main Investment groups.

I will post further updates on this topic as and when the changes are made.

Update No.2

The following were completed by 9.10pm on Sunday 5th December

Room 101 has been renamed and moved to the top of the "Any Other Business" group
Room 102 has been created directly below Room 101.

I will leave the changes to the "Improve the Recipe" and moving the "Lemon Lounge" group for at least 24 hours so that most active users can read about the imminent change.

Actually, given that the Lemon Lounge will be moving down to below the investment boards groups, it probably makes more sense to include Room 101 and Room 102 there rather than under AOB. Comments?

Update 3

The "Lemon Fool - Improve the Recipe" board has been repurposed and renamed as "Room 102 - Site Issues, Complaints & General Chat". See https://lemonfool.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=32414 for details.

"Room 101 - Escalations to Admin" has been moved into the Lemon Lounge group of boards

The Lemon Lounge Group has been moved to sit between Lemon-Aid and Travel Lounge groups.

The Room 102 I created in AOB last night has been deleted. Renaming Improve the Recipe was a neater solution.

"Welcome to TLF" post in place https://lemonfool.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=103&t=32430

"How to use the site" post also in place https://lemonfool.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=103&t=32431

Topic for users to introduce themselves or ask questions is in place https://lemonfool.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=103&t=32427

If any existing users want to post a brief introduction on the above topic, feel free.

I think that is all the board changes and welcome information in place now.
