Better tracking of forum threads about your styles

User’s pages on the site now have a link marked “Discussions on this user’s styles”. That will lead you a list of forum threads that people started by clicking on “Ask a question or make a suggestion” on that user’s style pages. The resulting page (like every other forum page) has a feed you can subscribe to. This should make it a lot easier for style authors to be notified of feedback on their styles.

The next step is to let people post reviews (comments with ratings) in forum threads, then I can do away with the half-baked review system that currently exists. This will hopefully address one of the major complaints with the site – the fact that style authors don’t have a good way to respond to a bad review.

    Sorry for putting this here, but your e-mail address is bouncing. Feel free to delete it after you’ve seen it.

    Every time I try to log in I’m redirected to http://userstyles.org/login/name_conflict.

    The address I’m using is steamreview.org. I think I actually signed up with http://steamreview.org/openid/index.php in my ignorance, but neither that nor the URL of the other file in that folder work either.

    If you’re delving into the account DB to fix this, changing my URL to plain old steamreview.org would be a welcome change. ;-)

    Thanks.
