I have been asked by an online community that I am a part of to look at building a standalone website I used community builder many years ago so thought of it immediately as being a good fit, but it has been so long I just want to check out the alternatives
It's to be a community site (free no payment gateway needed ect. though might need to ad one later) I need to be able to do the following;
- Each user gets a profile page - on which they can post images and status's
- Each user can actively follow/friend other users
- Each user gets the ability to private message each other
- Any user can block any other except 'admin'
- Any user can search other users based upon - name - classification - location +/- miles etc.
- User's should be able to report things to admin
- User's should be able to post 'classified ads' with geographical info
- Classified's should be searchable by geographical area
- Responses to classified's should be private.
Also ideally user should be able to categorise their images as NSFW (Not Safe For Work) and other users should be able to apply a filter that blocks these images - it's an artists community someone is bound to post a nude and someone else is bound to be offended by it
And if it is what would be the right 'package' to meet my needs.
