From your feedback on the User Surveys, here is what we've done on the site:
More languages
- Spanish, Portugese, Russian, French, German and Swedish forums.
- Google translator icons on the GPK sidebar translates articles and news into chosen language.
- Encouraging news, articles and event reviews submitted in whatever language she or he is comfortable in
Interacting with the site
- A News blog now replaces the News page. This format allows multiple contributors worldwide.
- Contributors can now directly post content (photos, videos, articles) to the News page and visitors can now post comments to posts.
- Twitter account has been started so that users can subscribe to tweets
- News blog is linked to Twitter and Facebook page so subscribers will now receive direct updates when news has been posted
We've also received some great comments like this one:
"It'd be great to somehow promote the forum so it will become popular enough to be a strong resource. While it works now, I think it has the potential to affect the majority of the female parkour (online) community, if exposed better." USA, 24 April 2010
Roger that!
GPK Forum
- Links to the GPK forum is now more visible on the website and the facebook page.
- Regular topics are now placed on the front of discussion topics ("sticky" notes) for easy reference
- Unfortunately because of time and resources restraints and the required lack of morals to spam people and other forums, if you like GPK then spread the word! Refer the forum to a friend or someone needs it.
Other site maintenance issues
- Due to kinks in the website software, links occasionally malfunctioned
- Regular checks are carried out on the validity of the links and information
- Constant updates on website and social networking platforms... so bear with us :)
Here's some love from GPK visitors:
