What would you like to see on TalkPHP?
 

Hello All,
As most of you know we are in the process of doing some things to the TalkPHP website to better suit you, the member. We would like to get all your suggestions as to what you would like to see on the TalkPHP forums.

Thank You

We could use all our members opinions...anyone have any?

I cant think of any maybe make a tutorial section to the site?

There currently is a tutorial section, although we are having some difficulties with adding new ones. The tutorial section can be found by going to the section titles "Tutorials" It's a forum category and the button looks a bit different.

I truly believe Video Tutorials would be the best benefit for anybody who wants to learn php. Obviously doing is the best way to learn -- but some people feel like they're missing something when just reading.

Seeing Videos of someone creating a backend for a CMS or a frontend of a Blog would gain a huge load of traffic to the site... especially if you had to be a member to view the videos and even "only active members" were allowed to see certain videos.

Just an idea.

Very good idea clenard. In fact I am going to research this and possibly put it into use. Would be great if we had a few users who would be interested in doing this, as I have no webcam but i'm sure purchasing one wouldn't be so hard.

Great idea and thanks.

Hey Mike,

All you need is a Screen Capture Program such as Camtasia.

It's easy to use and all you need is a Microphone to record the screen (so you can talk through the processes).

It works the same way as any VTC.com or Lynda.com videos, which is what they use as well :)

Hope that helps!

Clint

Thanks Clenard,
I'm looking into the program right now. Might just have to use this.

No problem :)

Just downloaded the program and feel this will work out wonderfully. I have actually captured a small tutorial on variables. Hoping I can find my mic somewhere around this house.

Some More Theme Options;

It will be so nice; ..

Nah, the theme is awesome!

However, the video thing is a great idea! That would really make this site the BEST in the PHP category.

I mean.. sampsonresume.com got video tutorials, but not a very active forum.. so if you're looking for help, it's not the place.

And talkphp.com is awesome with its forum members, who are very skilled with PHP and very helpful, but they don't got video tutorials..

So adding video tutorials for this site, would really make this site the BEST!

More theme Options are also important + I write this to Admins not you. Plus Video tutorials are important; good idea.

I know you wrote it to the admins, but I commented your post, because the simple fact that the admins have to add all the template modifications in all their templates, which.. sucks.. for them

How about something besides just "say thanks", what about having different types of thanks, i.e. maybe a statement, for a small thanks, a function for a bigger thanks, and a class for a thanks a million dude!

u dont have to purshase the webcam a software that shot ur screen is good i can get u that , google this => camtasia studio

i can get u the link to download it if u want

Some kind of download section would be nice in here?

Where members and / or staff could upload nice snippets and scripts for other fellow members?

anyway, whit or whitout this sections TalkPHP is THE best programming community at the moment!!
