[Tribe Feature] A better sidebar?
I would like some better options to customize the Sidebar of a tribe, such as categories that can be filled in with infos regarding the community, not just a place for etiquette and rules.
There could be modules, like an event calendar, an about community, the rules, a info box, video of the week/picture of the week, etc... There are so many possibilities with modules! And then we could even write our own, if the system in place is flexible enough. What do you think?

Custom modules would be really nice, and a big incentive for hosting a community on Snapzu as opposed to the alternatives. At a basic level, give us a place to stick some HTML, JS, and CSS, and sandbox it in an iframe for security. For a more advanced implementation, provide a way to define custom form fields/inputs for the admin interface (with values exposed to the module via a JS object), and add in a mechanism to share modules with others.
Exactly my thinking! As long as the modules are kept light, it really would be a big boon for our tribes!
I would love something like this for my tribes. Just a better sidebar and stuff. Currently there's only an area for Tribe etiquette / rules, but I want an area designed to link to other subreddits, provide useful information. Maybe even a page for a wiki would be nice.
Wikis would be a great addition, along with the blog mode, you could really do something special! But yeah, the sidebar could be so much more than it currently is.
Agreed.
