#DC Feedback

22

DC Feedback relates to discussions on Developer Community UI, UX and performance problems and enhancements.

Introduce DC enhancements.

Discuss DC enhancements.

Option 1:
Groups are renamed "Forums". They are segregated and have their own sets of tags. If I'm viewing "Ensemble" and I click "Create a Post", it is posted in that forum. I must tag the post with one or more tags from that forum, "Business Service", "Production", "DTD", etc. Tags can be assigned to multiple forums. I am never prompted to choose a "group"/forum. It's based on the context I was viewing.

We can change to this mode of UI in the Create New Post that I think makes the tag usage easier. There's help text under the window in this screen shot and it will contain instructions on the use of tagging, the benefits and also a link to a standing post to request new tags. I think this method of operation will allow us to add many more tags without making them burdensome to navigate.

Thoughts?

Not quite sure how to connect groups to tags in this UI but that might be the next step.

I received an email notification and the only link was directly to the comment: https://community.intersystems.com/question406316/answer406331

From that page you can see that there is no way to get to the full question itself (unless I'm missing it).

Looking through my subscriptions it looks like I'm literally subscribed to the answer and not the main topic.

Too easy to lose a post I wrote

Here's the scenario. I write a post, click the Publish button to post it, but overlook the fact that because I didn't add a tag I'm still on the same page. The pink area highlighting what I forgot to fill in is out of sight at the bottom of the page. I carelessly navigate away (e.g. back button, or DC app tabs). There's no warning, and I've lost what I wrote.

Congrats!

This latest update was a huge stride in making the community usable. I think you fixed almost all of the major usage gripes I had and it's looking great!

We will soon be implementing a filter that will remove Developer Community feedback from the home page. Please keep the suggestions and comments coming.

You can still access the feedback from the "Browse by Group" section on the home page by clicking on the Developer Community Feedback link.
