Last year, I developed the Skool Finder, enabling a completely new way of Community Discovery. Now, the site has received a fresh update. Due to the massive growth in the number of communities on Skool, I’ve put a lot of work into performance optimizations. At the same time, the Skool Finder provides the community stats for our local Skool Discovery and the statistics block. So, go ahead and check it out—especially now, just before Skool releases its own brand-new discovery tool. The Skool Finder's sorting functions and specialized filters will likely remain one-of-a-kind. Let me know if you have any ideas for improvement 👇🏼 --- Im letzten Jahr hatte ich bereits den Skool Finder programmiert und damit eine völlig neue Community Discovery ermöglicht. Nun hat die Seite ein kleines Update erhalten. Insbesondere aufgrund der enorm angewachsenen Anzahl an Communities auf Skool war einiges in Sachen Performance zu tun. Gleichzeitig liefert der Skool Finder die Community-Stats für die hiesige Skool Discovery oder den Statistik-Block. Also schau doch mal vorbei – vor allem jetzt, kurz bevor Skool selbst eine völlig neue Discovery liefert. Gerade die Sortierfunktionen oder speziellen Filter des Skool Finders werden vermutlich einzigartig bleiben. Lass mich wieder wissen, falls du Ideen zur Optimierung hast 👇🏼

I noticed that practically every functionality in this extension needs refreshing every single time I change page. This is also an issue with filters. For example when I apply the focus mode and go to another page, the focus mode disappears and I need to disable and enable it again. The biggest problem is with the feed. When I click a post, the feed disappears and I need to open it again. It then needs to load posts again and so on. Even when I pin it.

For the past few days, this thing next to everyone's names has been annoying and I couldn't find a way to hide it (besides using another extension to hide elements from the website). It has been also bugging how the leaderboards look. What is it supposed to do anyway?

𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀 — 𝗤𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸-𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗱 Creating events in Skool means clicking the "+" button, then manually picking a date and adjusting the duration every single time. Calendar Helpers streamlines this by adding a quick-create button directly to each day in your calendar grid. Hover over any day cell and a small green "+" button appears in the top-right corner. Click it and the native event creation modal opens with the correct date already pre-selected and the duration automatically set to one hour. No more scrolling through date pickers or fixing default values — just hover, click, and start filling in your event details. The feature intelligently handles month boundaries, so days from the previous or next month shown in the grid work just as reliably. Everything happens through Skool's own event modal, so your events are created natively with no workarounds. Calendar Helpers is available for community admins and owners. Toggle it on or off in the Admin Features section of the Toolkit Settings. --- 𝗞𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿-𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗳𝗲𝗿 — 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗘𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻 𝘃𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗺 𝗞𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿-𝗥𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 Events in Skool zu erstellen bedeutet jedes Mal: auf den „+"-Button klicken, dann manuell ein Datum auswählen und die Dauer anpassen. Kalender-Helfer vereinfacht das, indem direkt auf jedem Tag im Kalender-Raster ein Schnell-Erstellen-Button erscheint. Fahre mit der Maus über eine Tageszelle und ein kleiner grüner „+"-Button erscheint in der oberen rechten Ecke. Klicke darauf und das native Event-Erstellungsfenster öffnet sich — mit dem richtigen Datum bereits vorausgewählt und der Dauer automatisch auf eine Stunde gesetzt. Kein Scrollen durch Datumsauswahlen oder Korrigieren von Standardwerten mehr — einfach hovern, klicken und deine Event-Details ausfüllen. Das Feature erkennt Monatsgrenzen intelligent, sodass auch Tage des vorherigen oder nächsten Monats, die im Raster angezeigt werden, genauso zuverlässig funktionieren. Alles läuft über Skools eigenes Event-Fenster — deine Events werden nativ erstellt, ganz ohne Umwege.

The last two weeks have been insane. What started as a small hobby project has turned into a 𝗺𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Day by day, I’ve watched Skool Extensions become more and more powerful. Your feedback has been incredibly helpful in this process. I’m currently in a total flow state, pushing development every single day. My goal is for Skool Extensions to become a must-have for every Skooler. Naturally, I’ve been thinking about the business model. A premium version of the extension is the obvious path, but at the same time, I want to ensure a powerful free version remains available forever. On March 31st, just in time for my birthday, I will be launching Skool Extensions Premium. From that date, all 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 will be exclusive to the paid version for $𝟰𝟳/𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵. There will, however, always be a 14-day free trial for these features. In addition to the recently developed Admin Features like member lists, tagging systems, sales pipelines, and CRM profiles, I’m adding extensive Skool Automations with a flexible Workflow Builder on March 31st. This tool alone is going to be massive and will take your Skool game to the next level. You won’t need any other Chrome Extension for Skool ever again. All 𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀, including the community calendar, group chat, voice and video messages, bold text, bookmarks, etc. will remain 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿. For you and your members. Billing for Premium will be handled automatically through this Freemium community. I’ve already set the 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 commission to 𝟮𝟬%, so inviting people to join this community for free will definitely be worth your while! --- Die letzten zwei Wochen waren der Wahnsinn. Aus einem kleinen Hobbyprojekt ist eine 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘄𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘂𝗻𝗴 geworden. Von Tag zu Tag konnte ich beobachten, wie die Skool Extensions mächtiger und mächtiger geworden sind. Euer Feedback hat dabei wahnsinnig geholfen. Ich bin gerade in einem absoluten Flow und pushe die Entwicklung jeden Tag. Skool Extensions sollen ein Must-have für jeden Skooler werden.
