sookieHi sarveshgupta,
Your question is not clear but still making a try to answer it to some extent. Your question states that "You are making some site and want to add some new features to it but we are not supposed to think of it as you are interested in some diagrams and stuff right ?"
First thing , you need to make clear which diagram you want to make
1. use-case : Go for it, if you want to show the functionality of your site.
2. E-R diagram : They are used to show the database structure of your project.
3. DFD[Data Flow diagram] : Self- explanatory
4. Sequence Diagram : Self- explanatory
5. Architecture Diagram : Go for it, if you want to show the design of your entire project.
Regarding what all you should store in the database ? As per me, you should be clear what you want to keep for record's sake and in what manner you are making your UI. Until, you are not clear about design of your project yourself , there is no point in asking questions.
Feel free to ask questions but after thinking yourself a bit. 😀 -
sarveshguptahey sookie thanks
but actually all other things for the project that is the website were clear
and since i wanted to add a feature of forums on the site i wanted to know what all data need to be stored for a forum say for example crazyengineers
that is i wanted to know the things that are important to be stored such as thread or topic number, tag, pm, post related attributes. so that i can show that in database schema.
and regarding the diagrams i know what these diagrams are for
what i wanted to ask was where in which of these diagrams shall i show these forums? -

Good that you know about the diagrams but depending on what specifically you want to show in your project , pick up that kind of diagram. According to me, you should go for simple DFDfor showing the flow of your site and ER Diagram for showing the Database part of your site. No need of going in other diagrams.sarveshguptahey sookie thanks
and regarding the diagrams i know what these diagrams are for

Regarding this, I guess the owner of this site can answer much better than me. If not, I will try to answer that. 😀sarveshguptaand since i wanted to add a feature of forums on the site i wanted to know what all data need to be stored for a forum say for example crazyengineers

sarveshguptaActually you are not understanding what i am trying to say
I know which diagram to make what it is for and i have made them also
but the point is that you know that we show the features of our project in these
whether functionality or database related things
similarly i have incorporated all the features in these dia that needed to be shown in respective dia but now
it is just that i am confused what i shoud do with the feature of forum
does it represent a functionality of a site if it is an added feature of online hospital kind of site and not a forum site or it just needs to be shown in database
i think it must be shown into database schema instead of any other dia
and what i want to know is what will be the attributes for a general forum of any owner or any sort Take for example crazyengineers
what fields are stored in a db schema of crazyengineers
is it thread no, topic no , user id or what else ?
