Hard to find modules

Post by Bigge »

There have been some changes on the cmsms site. A nice site I often visit, but I miss this from before:
- a link to modules from Download drop down menu. I know there is a link on first page, but if I go to eg. a support page first and then wants to search for a module, they are hard to find. More user friendly to have a link on download menu.

- the page "http://www.cmsmadesimple.org/features/modules" would be a lot better with a search option for modules. If someone would like to download a module not listed (eg. captcha) it is hard to find without a search. And if you search for it in the form in the page head you will only find the xml-file, not the Forge page.

yeah - we know its a litle confusing just now.
We have just switched over to a in house made forge (was gforge before). And many details is not yet in place.
But if you use the search field you find up at right when you are on the forge page (use Development menuitem to get there) - you will find the modules you looking for more easy (if you know the name for it).
The search field on the forge looks very similar to the search field on the other pages - but its NOT the same search. Try searching from here - http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/  !

And yes - later we will get the categorisation of modules in place again. And then will the links and so on again work.

Sorry for the problems the move to new forge makes!
