@sliver86 @janwennesland I posted some plans for the theme here already, but we've listened to our customers and grown our feature list recently. Currently, we're planning on adding such features: - Add JavaScript validation for newsletter and submission forms - Allow to add custom fields to resource submissions - Add filtering options on resource listing pages - Add ability to sort featured resources - Implement "upvote" button for resources and combine it with views to calculate resource popularity - Add image upload option to user submission form - Add ability to change "visit website" label per item - Allow to add longer resource description - Implement simple blogging functionality - Implement Contact page template - Implement FAQ page template

just purchased and can't wait to play with it when I get the chance! I couldn't find any info from the manual or site about the licensing? @piotrkulpinski @janwennesland

@yougeekybastard @janwennesland Hi Tini! Thank you for purchasing our theme. Sorry it took us so long to respond! Of course, every WordPress theme is sold on GPL license so you can use the theme on how many sites as you want. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I don't get how this distinguishes a curation site.... there's no added functionality like ratings or reviews or voting... And the feature list (easy install, responsive, customizable, social media links, analytics, mailchimp integration) are all pretty standard features of Wordpress. What am I missing?

@paulhorne Thanks for your comment, Paul. We were watching the "curated" trend for quite some time and there's not too many collection sites that allow voting on resources etc. Most people just want an easy way to collect and categorize the best resources they can find on a particular topic. While we're planning to add new features to the theme - our main goal will always be to keep it as simple as possible.

@janwennesland bought. Haven't gotten a great chance to play with it since we are harvesting soybeans but any chance in future update the ability to change on a per item level the "visit website" button?

@piotrkulpinski thanks - and nice work - any chance you could allow users to include an image in submissions to ease the burden on curators and admins?

@passingnotes oh, and ratings may be quite useful as a sorting feature on busy and crowded categories

@passingnotes Great idea! Actually we received the same suggestion through the email recently so it's going to be added in the near future for sure! Thanks!

Interesting. I have been looking for a curated site builder. Will check out. But am curious as to why curation is so popular yet no one seems to like https://www.hellobox.co who was hunted a year ago, but has turned out to be more of a curated directory than a community site. It's is free, lets you have your own custom domain, a fully customisable theme, and has upvoting and commenting capabilities built in already? Check out http://www.resourcestacks.com/ or http://tools.robingood.com/
