New Story Archive Coming To Superheroine Forum!

Have stories to share? Post them here! All writers welcome.

Hey all,

I've decided to set up an archive section for the stories of this board. It will be in blog format and what's great is it will be searchable by Title, Author, Character or Peril Type and of course keyword type.

I have been wanting to set this up for a while (Just as sgz6) and I will be incorporating all the hard work that Omega Woman has been doing with the story index which will be a big help.

I feel this is a much better format as older stories do not have to get buried in the forum. Blogs were created to tell stories and now the only major hurdle left is to choose an appropriate theme. This is where I could use a little help.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to scour the web, sifting through all the millions of wordpress themes out there, either free or commercial, and suggest themes here in this thread. I will be looking as well but I want to make sure it's a theme we will all be happy with.

Any questions or suggestions are welcome.

If you are an Author on this Board: With a blog format, we can get a little more creative with pictures and artwork, weaving them into your stories. If you have artwork or had ideas of how to visualize parts of your story, now you can do that. So give that some thought because I will be assigning author status to writers in the future so they can get in there and format their stories to their liking.

That's it for now. Looking forward to hearing some feedback!

Have you looked at my story section? Would you be interested in the php files?

I think this is great news. I look forward to such a handy arrangement for this site. I've been discovering writers and their works through the Mr. X site since he switched it over to a format offering stories that are alphabetically-arranged by author name as well as by hero/heroine names and themes. Now I'm pleased to hear it will be coming true here now as well. :thumbup:

Omega Woman went the extra step of a preview of the authors' styles and specialties (sort of). Any plans on expanding that?

I know it will take some doing but any idea of a time frame for this to be accomplished?

Hi

I dont know what it is powered by but try taking a look at the Erotic Mind Control Story Archive. It seems to be set up pretty well, all the stories are tagged and can be searched by various means. Look ideal for what you are trying to achieve. I've been going there for years and it's always done the job.

Thanks man! I've been getting into Wordpress programming lately and I thought I would give that a whirl but if it seems to be too much maybe I'll just revert back to PHP. Sometimes Wordpress can be on the heavy side when it comes to loading and bandwidth, etc.

I just need to find a suitable theme to display the stories. After that I'll see what categories I am going to add and then its just a matter of backfilling the stories. I will most likely give authors the opportunity to add their own stories so they can format them the way they'd like.

Yeah that looks great and I was thinking of something along those lines where the stories are searchable by author or category or character, etc. So yep, it's gonna be a bit of an undertaking but hopefully a lot of the authors will pitch in to help.

Can't wait for this! I think it will be a great way for myself and all other writers to get our stories to the masses!

I do also like looking at the newest stuff regardless of who wrote or what tags may be there or not, so seeing chronological posting, like we have now, combined with these new features would be great.

Thanks for those. I am looking into using either one of these with our other theme.

We added it to the Wordpress site but no one used it.

I recently installed pages to this forum software and was going to start transferring the stories to those pages but I most likely will fully integrate the story archive with the NEW forum software that I plan to install.

The Heroine Project has a lot of fine stories for those looking to see either older material or newly posted stuff. There are an especially good number of fine Wonder Woman stories there.
