please consider creating a dating app

Hello @Simon !

Could you please specify the features which are missing in UNA for that? The proper fields list is possible to add in UNA by yourself.

I'm embarrassed to say, I haven't put the effort to fully explore the features of UNACMS, hence, my request. Glad to know it can be created as a dating site with its existing features.

Thank you for your reply.

p.s. Not being a programmer, not wanting to put all the though into mapping out all the features I want on a dating site. I think I would be willing to pay a small amount for instructions on which apps to use, or purchase a bare bones dating app with standard features, such as search/filter by variable such as: location, gender, age, etc. (and the ability to expand to add numerous searchable criteria), blocking members, message members, purchase of credits and/or membership monthly or yearly, upload images (set amount of uploaded images allowed, maximum size of each image), various email templates, etc.

It would be great if I can ask AI, "Taking into consideration all the standardized features found in dating app / websites, what existing apps available from UNACMS can I use to build a feature rich dating website? Give me instructions on how to build this dating website using these existing apps?"

FYI, I asked chatgpt (A.I) , re: what apps from UNACMS should / can I use to create a dating website and this is the response I received:
