    I am suggesting to arrange social groups by categories.

    * sports
    * games/gamers
    * nations/foreign languages
    * history
    * politics
    * religion
    * arts
    * hobbies
    * miscellaneous


    This small improvement would help to overview and browse social groups.


    -------------------------------


    Categories for social groups are coming in 3.8.

    http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/blog.php?b=2329
    It will be called Social Group Categories


    Social Group Categories
    Each Social Group now belongs to a category. Categories allow users to find groups that are relevant to them, especially on larger boards. The categories are predefined by the board admins. As well as providing suggestions to the users for the kind of groups they could create, this also allows admins to encourage users to create social groups that are relevant to the board as a whole.

    Categories are included in the advanced search filters, and can also be viewed individually. Selecting a category displays only the social groups that are in that category.



    When upgrading to 3.8, any existing social group messages will be moved into an initial discussion named after the group, and all groups will belong to the inital 'Uncategorized' category, which can then be modified by an admin.
    So here is the opportunity to suggest categories.

    Which is great and all except that until Spdude resurfaces we can't upgrade :3

    So uhm, we can't upgrade to 3.8 anyways, let alone update anything else.

    You make it sound like we have a choice in the matter, yes things would be much more organised and there is a LOT that we want to do, but we can't. There is no use getting down over it though, it wont change anything.

    Sad truth.


    Anyways, I will approve this when we can do it, so until then
