    Some Honest Feedback

    in Forum Discussions

    Great Product but it could be better,


    First I'd like to say that the WIX Forum and Blog should share and do share many of the same features but the WIX Forum is most defiantly missing some core design features.


    I understand that it's an app and could end up being pretty heavy and lagging the more you add on top of its current structure.


    What it needs right away


    • The WIX Forum needs some basic design options, for example in the WIX Blog you'll notice the image is at the top and the content is at the bottom, - Can we within the WIX Forum please have the ability to at least choose if we want the Image of the Post at the top?


    • Currently, it's Header, Description, and Image. The WIX Blog offers so many design options if at the basics could be please just have the ability to choose layout?


    Really Needed


    • The way that the product handles images and spacing is really bad, please bring back the Gallery, it seems as the Gallery gave a top of awesome ways for users to showcase their product/listing or post. Single Images with the ability to always add more images after posting your original is very out-dated.


    Highly Recommend


    When it comes to adding "Most Recent Posts" why not have it as a slider with images? Example the WIX Blog "Recently added Post"


    Future Recommended Items


    • Excellent layout for filters posts, can we somehow think about adding TAGS or a much better Search? I hardly ever see Blogs that do not offer article/post searching without the image - Please do not recommend installing the WIX Search app as This Product including Blog needs its own re-write of the search feature


    • it's more than just basic - I could write a search in code but I'd highly recommend re-looking or considering this.



    Not Enough Updates and Communication


    This is a popular application, I come here every single day and select "Updates and Releases" and hope to find new features, Please don't take this personal it's just I know so many users have interest in this Product. Give us more insights.

    Hi, James, we are thankful for your comprehensive feedback and requests!

    Be sure we take all insights/complaints or suggestions seriously.


    Regarding the arrangement of text and photo in the post - you can write your text on top or below the photo. You simply place the text signifier above or below the image. Could you elaborate your more if that still does not work for you or if I got you wrong?


    Unfortunately, we are not planning to bring back galleries soon as it decreases the performance. However, we will definitely rethink solutions in the future.


    Talking about the search option - we've been constantly working on improving it. For instance, the search engine used to bring back hundreds of unrelated results causing a ''content shock''. Now it brings back only a handful of related results. This improvement makes our search experience more efficient.

    In addition to this matter, could you specify what makes a search bar '' a better search'' for you? Have you any specific case/idea in your mind?


    I got you, James. We've been listing the latest updates / releases in one post, but we'll think of splitting them into independent pieces and notify you more often :)
