BraveNewCode Support Forums 2.0

We’ve launched our brand-new Support Forums today, the long-awaited redux for our previous forums which we took offline late last year.

Significant effort went into the new forums, as we re-built them from scratch on bbPress 1.0.2. We’ve added lots of little details to hopefully make our forum experience easy and intuitive for our users, such as: Simple, clear uncluttered views of topics and forums, helpful hints and reminders for publishing topics and replies, Ajax publishing for topics and replies, Ajax favourites and tagging, and much more.

We’ve also added a Bug Reporter Tool available in the forums (available for registered members), for easy filing of those types of issues which we can’t offer a fix for in the forums but can log and track and hopefully resolve in upcoming releases.

BNCID

What’s a BNCID? Simply put it’s an account you create that will hopefully make doing things BNC-related super simple. It’s one account that we’ve planned out to:

• Make comments on the blog under your BNCID username
• Start topics and reply to topics in the forums
• Manage product licenses for any products we may release in the future
• Gain access to special promotions, offers, discounts, etc
• Manage your e-mail subscriptions to blog posts
• … and more!

We’re still building things out for the BNCID accounts, including the account page itself where all the managing of account details and features will take place. Eventually a BNCID holder will have this single page that will let them manage all account features and see blog/forum activity.

It’s something that we really haven’t seen done with WordPress yet that we really think is a must when you build a large, diverse website with several account features such as what we have planned for BNC.

So head on over to the forums and take a look around!
We hope you enjoy them!
