    I should have written "the forge", indeed, not outside SW.

    One issue I just noticed - When you advance to the next page of results the page stays scrolled to the bottom. This makes it so that after the first page you have to scroll all the way up, then all the way back down to see all the listings and go to the next page.

    Also to reiterate this issue I brought up before: Should Core RPG compatible extensions also show up when a ruleset that is built on Core is selected as the filter? Or is that set by the developer when they make the listing? i.e. can the developer tell the filter system that an extension is for both Core and 5E?

    So we’re back to community stuff in the forums, and no incentive for devs to produce content? Do you really want to stop using the Forge and go back to manually checking the forums, downloading and overwriting extensions?

    Like it or not, the fact that FG community devs could get some recompense for their work has led to a big increase in available content.

    I really like the new Forge and what it offers!

    After working with it over the last couple of days, I have a few suggestions:

    1) Is it possible to get an option so that we can sort the shop page to show the newest/updated extensions in descending date order?
    That way we can see what is new if we're just perusing and not looking for a specific item in the shop.

    2) In the actual item page, is it possible to get a dedicated field at the top, like under the rating, that has the link to the help/comments topic in the forum?
    The items I've looked through have it somewhere in the description, if at all. Depending on the length of the description, some of which are quite detailed, it can take a bit to find the link.
    Having a dedicated field at the top where everyone knows where to look makes it really easy to find to ask questions or get help.

    3) Are the suggestions for improvements to the Forge being tracked in the Idea Informer, or is the list under consideration only internal to SmiteWorks?
    It would be useful to see what is under consideration and, depending on the complexity of the improvement request, might be helpful if people can vote to show how much it is wanted.

    Lastly, this is a question and not a suggestion, what is the difference between the Accessory and Free Supplement items in the Product Type filter?
    It seems like a lot of items listed as a Free Supplement could also be listed as an Accessory with no price, so not sure what differentiates one from the other. It also seems to cross over into the Price filter which is kind of confusing.

    Thank you again for making this happen and looking forward to using this going forward!

    I think the categories have been taken from the store categories. So, yeah, it can be a bit confusing when trying to fit your product into the current categories. Hopefully there'll be some refinement of the available categories and guidance on what to select at some point.

    Thanks for your ideas. We're only tracking these items internally for now; especially since we haven't even done our final marketing announcement for launch of the Forge yet. We'll refine the process as we go.

    Forum Major Category add for "The Forge"

    Can we get the Forge added as a major category in the Forums?. It would give us a place to discuss and post questions regarding extensions that targets the right audience. Also, you could take the forum link currently on the forge site and point it back directly to it's proper category. No I will not put this in any kind of suggestion box, take this simple request and do with it what you will.

    Well keep in mind - Aug 1st you will see a number of refugees from DMsG and the wrath of WOTC on extensions! Tick tock!

    What would be the point of that as opposed to the various subforums of The Armory?
    I'm not saying it's a bad idea, just genuinely curious why you'd want Forge products to be separate.

    OK, weird comment, but whatever floats your boat…. Moved your post to the Forge discussion thread.
