🖥️ Webmaster Invisioneer.org - Where Great Communities Launch

[joelr]

Passion and Strategy are the fuel for the next great community. We invite all forum enthusiasts, forum administrators and webmasters, and community builders to check out Invisioneer.org, a community focused on community management. All are welcome.

You'll find a refreshingly different take on building an online community. You will find topics based on best in community management trends and thought leadership that you won't find anywhere else.

🚀 Simple & Thoughful - You won't find tons of side accessories like forum battles, point economy, forum games, or server and domain discussions. What you will find is a focus on what matters: smart and interesting discussions based on disciplines from psychology, sociology, leadership, organizational theory, and community management.

🚀 Inspiring - We're here to help you build. This means that being supportive, motivating, and inspiring is ingrained into the very mission of the community.

🚀 Learning - We believe in learning from smarter ideas and people. We're home to (as far as we're aware) the world's largest community management dictionary with over 500 unique terms. We're home to over 100+ custom articles inspired by top organizations such as Harvard Business School and Feverbee. You will find topics such as Emotional Intelligence, Innovation for Solopreneurs, and Personal Leadership.

🚀 Something Different - You're probably a member of every other forum admin site. If you're looking for something a little different that will push you beyond your comfort zone with new ideas and discussions that you won't find anywhere else, we invite you to give us a try.

We're here to help you launch a different and better kind of community. Growing a community is not easy, and we don't pretend to have all of the answers, but we are committed to learning alongside you through the ups and downs.

Share Your Thoughts

Here are 3 inspired discussions you won't find anywhere else, drawn from the best in community management trends:

• Fear of Sounding Stupid - This is one of the reasons why your lurkers might not be responding. Are users afraid that they don't have anything valuable to add? How do we, through design or messaging, encourage and nudge users that their comments are welcome?
• Do your users actually need a community solution? - You write blog articles, long-form articles, or in-depth research and guides. Published content is designed to be consumed, not to connect. So why are you building a community, which has a very different approach to solving solutions?
• Why do you love your Swedish DIY furniture so much? - The IKEA effect is real. Learn why making your own furniture means you love it more than furniture that you buy. And build a community that users passionately care about.

Awesome work on the community, I've seen your posts around the webmaster area of Admin Junkies many times and you are very insightful when it comes to webmastering, so I'm sure your forum will be a success!

So many members devs and clients have joined already It's nice to see that 60% of the paid and free addons that I use are listed to able to follow when new updates come, I mean hopefully a system is in place to get updates on when there is a new update There are more addons to go that are listed that I need to follow up on, might end up having to get another DEV to take on the role of supporting it. On that note, I have seen far more new add-ons that I might check out as time goes by

Are you the same Cory on Forum Advertiser, by chance?

Yes, it's been absolutely amazing how the third-party community of IPS has come together to collaborate on the new Marketplace Directory.

I also wish there was an easy system to be notified on new updates, we will need to see how authors incorporate the updatecheck on their files.

That's awesome, didn't want to assume you were the same person but it's such a small world! Thanks for the fast approval on FA!

Nice job good luck.

As time goes on I think that the system would improve and new ideas and plugins would be added to the system and soon enough invisioneer would be set perfectly and easygoing for all clients to get fast updates.

I was going to increase the amount of plugins that I have so that it's eas to keep track and I have but after viewing some good apps on invisioneer its not going to happen now hahaha

 

[Reverie]

It appears you're off to a great start Joel! I love the logo and innovative ideas you have for your community.

 

[joelr]

Thank you so much @x0r and @Reverie !

 

[Arantor]

Looking good there. I hope it really works out for you; the world can always use more people channelling how to build a great community.
