Shoutbox on the site maybe?
-
Now that NodeBB has a shiny Shoutbox plugin, I think it would look nice on the mainpage of the community forums. It's maybe just me though, but thought I'd ask.
Maybe under the statistics row (just not to be too obtrusive.)

Not possible yet to change the position, I hope to have that in 0.0.4

@Mr_Waffle I can live with that.

@BarveyHirdman Aaaand it's added, will be in the next release

Just a heads up, I'm thinking of a way to define "widgets" for plugins (yours would definitely be a widget type plugin). Then in the ACP you'd be able to customize where it'd show up (home page near motd or as a sidebar, category sidebar etc)
As for putting this on our homepage, I think once this theme is ready it would look pretty good as a sidebar option: https://github.com/psychobunny/nodebb-theme-lavender

Awesome, keep me updated on the widgets thing. As of right now my plugin would still place the shoutbox on the top of the page on that theme.
