Dolphin is not that engaging. If you dont have a points mod that gives real rewards i dont see how it will be. When member join everything is hard to navigate and confusing. They add avatar photos when joining like they are building a photo album for a gallery. And rarely go to the photo section to add photos. This business about making a album first then add photos, has my members making multiple folders with only one photo in it cuz you cant just click a add a photo button, upload and done. Nope see more the photo page says “Add album” . People want it simple. And Dolphin is not as simple as many would like. You really have to educate your users a bit more that I think a site should. Maybe D7.1 will fix this? I agree interaction sucks. But you cant make people engage if they don’t want to. However, you can give people a reason to want to. Funny you wrote this post because I am going over the how myself in terms of engagement. I think the phone app will help us all a lot to if it was fully functional. It should work with all areas of the site. If I cant post in groups or forums then how do I enter act with members from it in a meaningful yet random why?

Uploading has been completely revamped in 7.1, as well as the "timeline" and showing what you want on it.
When we finally get to 7.1, I think Rob will be able to "lay" the site out better.
I agree that we shouldn't go "all in" with the modules, and cleaning the menu up to be more intuitive.
With some simple changes to the home page to make it "look" engaging with posting of News, Articles, and Forums showing up to the guest, that makes me want to see more see more of a site..
