Voice page can be seen here.

I'm pleased to see events add to groups, making the events portion feel more complete. Right now the events app is a little hard to find due to it being at the bottom of the applications list. Facebook makes it one of the first links on a group page. The reason for this is because group events is one of the most important aspects to the event system as well as the group system. Right now you have to scroll down to see the event app on a group page. After a little bit of scrolling you can see it here:



So what I'm proposing is for it to be ranked much higher. Whether it be at the top of the applications list or swapped to the filter apps or even the menu above. It needs to be more visible due to it's high importance.
Hi,

Noted.

Sidenote: You do not need to create a voice and a forum post at the same time.

I considered not adding a voice on this one. But then I figured assigning additions like this might be easier for you guys. Just wanting to use the best practices when giving a addition that is not a "feature" but does use better placement.

@Josh then you will have to pick which one to go then.

Will see if I have time to add the button under the "manage" dropdown, along with the "Create new announcement/Create new discussion".

Voices doesn't allow me to remove the voice above. Not too long ago voices didn't allow one to edit a post, but Mark fixed this upon request.

As for the manage drop down, that's a great idea Jason.

Glad to see the idea you mentioned implemented. Thanks for that addition. Regarding the event app in groups, I still feel it could be better ranked (it's at the bottom) but at least the situation is better given the new addition. I'm not saying it needs to be the top app, but I can be sure that groups on social media sites use events way more than they do sharing files.

Hi,

As we currently are on full force with EasyBlog, this will only be altered/improvise after EasyBlog is done.
