UG Widgets: Going Strong

Views: 69
Comments: 3
So folks, it's been two weeks since the Modul.... *cough*, sorry, Widgets were launched. The launch, by the way, went extremely well - almost without any glitches (thanks to our coders' hard work and intensive testing).

As some of you probably noticed, we have dropped our internal "modules" title used for the project (just to avoid the confusion). Aside from that, during the two-weeks period we've learned what you want from the Widgets most of all.

One of the first improvements will be a feature, allowing you to move the widgets panel up and down within the page (e.g. so it can be placed between a panel with
Music Reviews, Music News, Interviews and a panel with Columns, Community, Tabs). You won't be able to move around the News block, for example, but you'll get a possibility to lower your widgets on the main page with ease.

The next update will concern Recommended Tabs, the most popular widget so far. Our developers are currently working on improving its algorithm. One of the nicest features will be a "dislike" (or "ignore") button, allowing you to affect the recommendations yourself.

What's next? Get you vote right now at this location!

We are looking forward to getting your feedback, thank you!

*makes note to stop calling them Modules*

I'll still be using the Widgets at the top of my page, but I can see why some want to move them. Options ARE cool.

I don't even use the Recommended Tabs, but I suspected that would be the most popular one.

Good luck and congrats on a great launch!
