Rare is a publishing platform and social application that allows authenticated users to interact in a social forum by creating posts, associated tags and categories to their posts for relevance and filtering, and create comments on each other’s posts in order to interact directly with each other.
- Users can create Posts to share their thoughts in a public forum.
- Users can create, edit, and delete Tags and Categories to a Post in order to better classify their Posts. Both Tags and Categories can be managed on individual posts or as list views that include the same capabilities.
- Users can create, edit, and delete Comments on their Posts and other user’s Posts in order to take part in a discussion regarding the post.
- Users have the capability to view all of their Posts as a list, or view Posts by all users as a list.
- Admins can approve or delete Author posts before posts are displayed.
- Users can search posts by title.
- Users can sort posts by category.
