Admin Changelog V.1
-
Howdy,
It has been brought to my attention that there is still some confusion on where to post things. The most popular mistakes are the Questions/Help category options.
Later today I will add some symbols that will make it a lot more easy to know where to post. Before I can I will need to explain a few things.
What is a Parent Category?
A parent category is a category that separates multiple category options from other ones. For example lets say I wanted to connect the Edge of The Forum Category a parent of Food Category, the food category will display UNDER the Edge Of The Forum Category.There can be multiple Parent Category options BTW!!! Typically we use Parent Category options to make things more organized and neat. So if you see the "Community Discussion" option, that is a parent category of multiple other category options.
What is a Co-Parent Category
A Co-Parent Category is a category that is the child of one category but also the parent of another category, think of it how your parents have parents!So here's an example, I made Forum Games a Parent Category of Trivia and I made Trivia a Parent Category of Edge Of The Forum. It's like a family tree.
What is Child Category?
A Child Category is pretty simple. It is the child of a parent category.
Now That we have discussed that, I have made a few adjustments regarding category options.
All Parent Category Options will have a Thumbtack as their image, you will see it beside the category name. EVERYTHING below it is a child category unless there is more parent category options to separate it and stop the flow.
All Co-Parent Category Options will display a Star as its image. To be clear a co-parent category does not stop the flow Kinda, it is still a child of the parent category but also has its children that are not related or connected to the parent category that the co-parent category is connected to.
Child Category Options will not display a star nor thumbtack, its image will be random or it will be related to what you are to post there.
Obviously, you can ask a Forum Moderator on where you should post something if you're not sure. You can also go to https://browsedns.net/categories to view everything I have explained. Every category should have somekind of description to it.
Our @Forum-Moderators, @Global-Moderators and @Administrators will continue to be consistent in moving threads to the correct category.
The Following Categories have been deleted...
Switch Questions & Help (HomeBrew & Development) - You may now post all your hombrew questions in the co-parent category which is "Homebrewing Your Switch".

BrowseDNS Forum Co-Admin -
Well done wolfie and Jared!!!
Here's a question though, is there going to be a new forum moderation manager?
also, who's the forum services manager? because ameris isn't in the groups anymore -
I believe Unity is the forum moderation manager and they have not decided on a new manager for forum services I believe. either way that has nothing to do with me

also, who's the forum services manager? because ameris isn't in the groups anymore@YourAriesBestie Uh, like Raven said, that's up to Wolfie or Jared, it's obviously not up to me either. :sweat_smile: but I have been thinking and I might have a recommendation. :thinking_face:
