Title: Top Sites Module
Post by: Jpg on November 24, 2006, 12:40:05 AM
Hey everyone, I was thinking that since there's gonna be a gallery module, a link manager module and we already have a blog system thanks to feline and the download manager module which is done...what's missing?
Well there should be a topsites module!
If Tinyportal had a topsites module everysite would be 100 times better...just a suggestion. :)

Yes its a good idea - I think if the topsites listing was made within the links module it would be even nicer since it would eliminate repetition of links. With features like:

- Hit tracking
- Votes / rating
- Banner display for top X sites
- Top sites by category

Well just some suggestions

Yeah that's basically what a topsites is...but you forgot there should be info about the site under the link or image somewhere.

Anyway i just want to say that i fully support this  :)

Mainly it needs a way to allow the module (or whatever it is) to automatically harvest statistics from any website that is registered with it.

Well I don't think it would be that hard since we already have most of these features on other things in our sites.
Only hard thing is putting it all together..and I say module because it needs it's own databases to store the stats.
