So far, pligg has proved useful, though hard ( compared to other sites ) to impliment changes. esyndicat uses smarty, but their way of installing modules is top dollar, basically you choose from your download page ( each domain has its own key, download area etc ) which module you want to install, download / upload it, go to an area within admin that lets you browse your computer for the install file, select, press install, hey presto, you have a working module without having to hack code.( I know some of your modules work like this, but not all )

The point is, this would be great in pligg, instead of having the long process of hacking code, to find ( in my case ) I often have to abandon the wanted add on simply because I get error messages. Whilst I am not a coder, I am also not a 'newbie' to code, and I struggle somewhat.

In the same vein, a google box within admin that lets you submit your google / add code, saving having to remember where it is within the template.

A captcha refresh, coz getting the captcha wrong after inserting info for the page to be wiped is arggghhh frustrating,

A custom box, that we could add our own stuff in, ( coz trying to make on is in my case a nightmare )

In my opinion, I would be willing to pay, $70 for a pligg whereby the 'brains' is taken out, or a larger fee for unlimited sites, you could leave the free downloads there, but a basic template, which in my opinion encourages people to buy the version that also makes coffee.

( sorry for the waffle )

Atb, Mark

What pligg needs is SEMANTICS!

For those of you who don't know what it is, look here: Semantics @ Wikipedia

To make a long story short, semantics are all about showing people related and interesting content. By interesting, I mean interesting to the individual not to the common user.

An example:
If a pliggsite is about golf, and an individual (a specific user) votes on a story about golf and babes, you have got some information on that specific user; he likes gold AND babes. The next time something with golf AND babes occurs, the pligg system will know that he's probably interested, and it'll be able to tell him about it.

By that you increase the positive experience of the site for each individual using the site.

It is not just about stories. When you start to collect information on a user, you can take advantage of it, and show him different kind of (in his opinion) interesting products, websites, tips, movies etc. (All these products, websites, tips, movies etc. can be loaded from sites like Freebase, an open source knowledge tank)

A plus is the affiliate part of it. If you show people products and links they care about, and not just products and links which are relevant to the topic of your pligg site, it's obvious that sales will increase.

Just a thought
