Requests for integration with Arcane Engine

[osirisjem]

LuxuryWiki.com is using the following packages:

* vBulletin 3.6.3 [ Forums ]
* MediaWiki 1.7.1 [ Articles & Reviews ]
* PhotoPost 5.5 [ Photo Gallery ]
* Downloads II [ Files and Links ]

Currently our priorities are to test luxurywiki.com, launch the next release of vbWiki, and then focus on our two core products..

(I'm quite content with it) Is there any chance of implementing LDM??

I'd also like to have WebTemplates integrated.

Anyone have any other requests ?

Google has an ultra powerful "Custom search engine" thing now.
I see it as being VERY powerful to a community.

It seems to work well here ... try it.

Google's page on it - http://google.com/coop/cse/

Cool eh ?

Very interesting.

Om Malik recently wrote an article about "subject-specific search engines". I guess that this is Google's response to this new breed of search engines...

Another that comes to mind is http://swicki.eurekster.com/ ( www.swiki.com )

Not that I care much about business really.
But, making a
"Luxury Car Search Engine" could prove very fruitful.

If you were able to corner the market that you are "THE" Luxury Car Search engine, that could prove fruitful.

and then ... charging lexus.com for including them in the search engine... ... not to mention the google ads money.

Vbadvanced would be great.

My requests:

WebTemplates

ReviewPost (should be similar to PhotoPost)

[ElfMage]

Certainly. Could you send me a PM with a brief description on how you would use this software? (We are trying to gather as many usage models as possible to make sure that we have all the bases covered.. )

Thanks.

If I am going to use NuRatings I wish it will work with

GARS (Geek Article and Rating System) very handy script
VBloggetin (should rate and rank blogs)
VbAdvanced (module)

Interesting concept. We also got an e-mail from them regarding their beta test program for this software.
