I still think more links are necessary. Most of the pages don't get much attention. So the main page doesn't get filled with a bunch of links, I suggest including a link to [[Special:Allpages|All pages]]. That will put it in plain view of everyone instead of hidden in the "[[Special:Specialpages|Special pages]]" link on the left menu where I'm sure a large majority of people don't know about it. --[[User:Pilot 51|Pilot 51]] 06:20, 11 October 2007 (PDT)
 
  
: We will not link to the all pages page. That would be way too much unuseful information for pretty much all users. Instead, we should make the main page include the important links in a categorized manner. -[[User:Kissaki0|Kissaki]]

OS X has been renamed to macOS since 2016. Should the download list reflect that?

As the title suggests, I would like to ask you guys to make it possible to use a GIF as your comment. Not sure if it will be easy to do, as images already lag Mumble while loading, but I would like you guys to give it a try. I believe many people would like Mumble to have this feature.

Our wiki homepage had this block with more links. They may not be useful though, or should be less prominent than a full-text-line-link.

Revision as of 16:08, 1 June 2020

Note: Solved/Implemented suggestions will be removed. Add new headline for new topic. Indent replies through colons ':'.

Add this video on main page

This video or similar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hv5Pmab4K6E / http://gcguild.net/movie/ventrilo-vs-teamspeak-vs-mumble People must know the difference!

It will not land on the mainpage. Could be added to a different page on this wiki though, that talks about latency/latency comparison. -Kissaki 14:29, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

Issue: OS X should be macOS

OS X has been renamed to macOS since 2016. Should the download list reflect that?

Make sure the new website homepage feature list is not missing useful links

Our wiki homepage had this block with more links. They may not be useful though, or should be less prominent than a full-text-line-link.

For Users

For Administrators

For Hosters

  • Free software - no licensing hassle or cost
  • Automatable administration through Ice middleware
  • Low resource cost for hosting
  • Very stable server software
  • Free choice of server software
  • Custom webinterfaces for users through Ice
  • Provide users with channel viewer data (CVP) without giving control away
    • Or empower the users by providing the Ice interface




blablub

some text as filler to get the layout right

Google captcha

Imo the google captcha is annoying, wouldn't it be enough to show it just once in the beginning? Or at least just sometimes?

Timeline for change being applied to Upstream public wiki is too long

I noticed that changes to the public wiki are applied very slowly. Can't that be a little faster? At least changes made by Members of the team or even "trustful" users could be applied faster imo.

Add link to audio page

You might consider linking to the audio page in the section for the client. For clarity it should be named Audio Options.
