Planned Champ Features (Last updated April 2019)

As usual, a monthly thread is created to keep our customers informed about what new features are coming up.

Here is last month's thread (March 2019): https://getchamp.myshopify.com/community/champ/forums/7-support/topics/4982-planned-champ-features-last-updated-march-2019

Upcoming:

• Sitemap - April
• Timestamps for private messages - April
• View count for posts/profile pages - April
• User point system - April
• Avatar replacement from Gravatar - TBD
• Polls - TBD

Completed:

• Views count for topics/profiles (settings need to be enabled in the dashboard)
• Sitemaps!

If you have any ideas or suggestions, please add it below here. I ask that you create an account and log in if you post so that I can follow up with you directly if I have any questions or need clarification on suggestions.

Added sitemap feature for improved indexing by search engines.

Add Nesting feature to forums

Views count for profiles/topics are completed. To enable this, you'll need to set it under the app's dashboard Settings.

Sitemaps released!

You can find your site map at your forum's root URL.

So for this forum (Champ's own support forum), it is at:

https://getchamp.myshopify.com/community/champ/sitemap.xml

You can use this and submit it to Google for faster and more comprehensive indexing. We (of course) can't control what Google includes in its search results, but we can try our best to help it crawl our sites better.
