UNA for me is a thing that provides a lot of customization. I used its existing features to create an internal network magazine, accessible by the general public to read network Post as Featured, Popular, Latest and Top post, including the classified ads section. I designed the magazine section so that users can see their content published in website format. as well as in the Home page news feed. Adding the magazine concept also allows for the addition of more advertising zones in the network. More than Facebook, but without creating viewer ad fatigue. Users would expect a website section to look and act like a website,
I also integrated a few of the Organization and Profile post views into the magazine, for such things as a Regional News post view, without using the profile but the Post view section of the profile, which makes for a better look and view within the magazine concept.
I sometimes get an idea for a feature or something for the network and wonder if I can do it, then given some thought I find a way to do so, I have had a few past sites using UNA, currently I have a demo site I am working on, taking my time before I open it for membership. This demo, shows what I mean about a magazine section. The url is on my profile here.
I am basically wanting to sell the concept regionally and across the state, since I am going to use a network wide Ad Server to provide advertising accounts, that are automated via a WordPress based ad server, installed into the UNA root htdocs section of the domain.
