#DC Feedback

This article appeared in the feed, but the "last answer" and "last comment" links point to https://community.intersystems.com/post/can-you-crack-black-box#node-432866 and https://community.intersystems.com/post/can-you-crack-black-box#comment-... which belong to a different post.

In this release we added new functionality that marks postings with either a "new" icon or an "unread" icon depending on when you came to the site last and the age of the postings.

Here are the rules as currently implemented:

- If a user hasn't viewed content which was posted less than 2 weeks ago, then the label "new" is displayed.

- If the user hasn't viewed content which was posted more than 2 weeks ago then the label "unread" is display.

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!

I would really like to see (an option for) a more compact index of posts. The current index layout makes me feel like a) there's not much content on the site and b) I have to look harder to get an idea of what's going on. I feel like I'm forced to read each post instead of just glancing over a "list" of posts.

Hi, Community!

We are fixing groups, tags and message types for the several last year's postings.

So that's why you are getting "strange" notifications now with no any new comment.

As a result, you'll get better tagging and for the DC articles and questions.

Anyway, you can turn off the "OnUpdate" notifications as it is described here.

From time to time someone adds the "Developer Community" tag to a post that's actually about something else. I wonder if by renaming the tag to "Developer Community Feedback" this wouldn't happen so much. After all, the group is called "Developer Community Feedback". If folk feel the proposed new name for the tag is too long, how about "DC Feedback"?

In the screenshot below the left is Chrome, the right IE11 (with About box info showing).

In both cases I'm not logged in to DC, but I don't think that's relevant:

Hi,

it seems the community markdown engine doesn't support regular ``` as marking for code.

How about displaying a different icon alongside a question for which there is an accepted answer? Perhaps add a green checkmark adornment to the existing icon?

It looks like andreas posting is in triplicate - I am sure the bureaucrats are very happy - on the homepage

Not sure why...? Is there really 3 unique posts IDs that are the same or is there a bug in the hoempage display logic that is repeating the items listed?

I still find it odd having to go to the DC homepage to get the "Create a New Post" button:

because it's not there when I'm reading a specific group, e.g. at the URL https://community.intersystems.com/group/atelier

It's good to see growing participation in DC. However, sometimes I think that responses posted as Answers to Questions would be better classified as Comments. For example, the respondent could be seeking clarification about the original question (e.g. "What Caché version are you using?"), or perhaps following up someone else's answer or comment.

I create a new blank post. Then I choose a group (I picked Caché). Next I click int the "Related Topics" field. At this point Firefox stops responding. It happens with FF 45.0.1 on 32-bit Windows and with 46.0.b7 on 64-bit Windows.

I'm posting this report using Chrome.
