Hello PMC!
Today, we're introducing collaborative threads on PMC! Brought to us by Paril in collaboration with Cyprezz :D
After that, we have future ideas but it's really up to your creative minds to think of why you'd collaborate on a thread with friends. Feel free to share your ideas in this thread or jump right into collaborating :D
Collaborators don't have permission to manage collaborators, publish drafts or draft a published thread.
While testing the system, we revamped the forum navigation, tweaked multiple UI features and introduced a brand new member menu into the side column on Desktop.
This will allow you to quickly access:
Hope you enjoy the forum updates and team up with friends on some creative collaborative threads! Per usual, we're open to all feedback, suggestions and please report any bugs/issues via ticket.

What are collaborative threads?
Collaborative threads allow an author plus up to 10 members to collaborate on a single thread.Why collaborate on a thread?
We love the community hosted contests and events and think collaborative threads will allow multiple hosts to divide up or better manage their active threads.After that, we have future ideas but it's really up to your creative minds to think of why you'd collaborate on a thread with friends. Feel free to share your ideas in this thread or jump right into collaborating :D
How to start a NEW collaborative thread?
- Create a new thread
- Draft or Publish the initial contents

Collaborators have permission to edit the thread title, description icon and poll.Collaborators don't have permission to manage collaborators, publish drafts or draft a published thread.
Check out system
If you're collaborating on a thread, you may eventually run into the check out system. This system prevents multiple collaborators from overwriting changes. We just wanted to mention it here in anticipation of the question arising. The system itself does a good job of explaining and managing control.But wait... there's Bonus Forum Updates!
While testing the system, we revamped the forum navigation, tweaked multiple UI features and introduced a brand new member menu into the side column on Desktop.
This will allow you to quickly access:
- My Threads
- My Replies
- Upvoted Threads
- Favorite Threads
- and customize your forum by managing your subscriptions to forums & reviewing any threads you hid.
Hope you enjoy the forum updates and team up with friends on some creative collaborative threads! Per usual, we're open to all feedback, suggestions and please report any bugs/issues via ticket.

Someone in a ticket (a few months ago actually i think)
If you can find the ticket let me know so I can credit them! Technically this feature was given to me by Cyprezz to develop, and I don't think either of us consciously took the idea from a ticket, but if it was suggested before I'll be sure to give them a shoutout for it.
This is not exactly it but the idea is kinda thr same: www.planetminecraft.com/tickets/168/
Ahh yeah, we've been working on that one too. This was kind of separate-but-related. We do plan to integrate this into groups as well, but this was mainly for contest managers.
Oki doki
