Corona Cloud User Generated Content

General (non-technical) Testing Forum for Moderators / Admins
#1

Hey guys, does anyone know if it would be possible to host user generated content using corona cloud? As an example, consider a simple maze game where users can create their own mazes and upload them to the server. Then, using some sort of ranking system, other users can try out other users’ mazes and vote them up or down. There could be categories for new mazes and “best this week” etc.

Obviously the maze example is just one possibility.

Would corona cloud support this? If not, might it support it in the future? If not, does anyone know of a “free to test” service that would support this and would be accessible from a corona made app?

Thanks

I don’t think that would be too feasible right now.  Feel free to go to:

http://feedback.coronalabs.com

and put your request in there and get people to vote it up.

@Rob Hey, I’m trying to use that feature request page but I think it may be broken. There are links to “Post a new idea…” and “Give Feedback” both of which just link me back to the current page. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? I’ve signed up and clicked the link in the confirmation email.

Thanks

Hi @sabelo,

First, enter your search query into the box where it says “Enter a feature…”. This will bring up a list of existing topics that might match your idea. If you see one that already exists and matches your idea, you can add your vote(s) to it. Otherwise, there should be a button that says “Post a new idea…” which will allow you to create a new one.

Hope this helps,

Brent
