Jordan Miller Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Hey team, I had an idea... I would love to see a Timeline application. Similar to functionality as the Calendar app, but the layout would look something more like a linear timeline: Members could add dates/events and begin a timeline. Other members could contribute based off Group permissions The layout could appear either horizontally or vertically. Ideally, they could also earn points via @TheJackal84's Members Shop app for each event they add. I would definitely be interested in something like this, anyone else?

Rikki Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 I'm afraid I won't be able to dig up the example because it was a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure I remember someone building a timeline very similar to that using our Pages app and some custom templates. You'd just need a database with a date field and a content field, and then build some custom templates to display it as a timeline 🙂 If you have HTML/CSS skills it should be doable, or a third-party designer could do it without much trouble I expect.

Fosters Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Yea, this is quite easy with the pages app. In fact I did this a while ago, but the templates and css part was quite tricky and dirty.. Fun fact... Yesterday I just asked another valued 3rd party dev/designer from the IPS community, if he could code such a similar pages template set for us because I'm way too busy with other stuff.

I am not the best with html/css skills 😂 I'mma need a developer's skills on this one! But cool to hear that it can be done.
