I don't feel strongly enough about it to hate it, but I prefer the typical auto-complete, free-form tagging system seen on most sites (see StackOverflow for the perfect example). The nested dropdowns are just too cumbersome in my opinion.
When using the search field on this site, sorting by 'Relevancy' shows same results as when sorting by 'Newest first', and it seems that results are really sorted by newest first. A bug maybe?
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.
Whatever the current login cookie expiration is set at is too short. I consistently have to log back seemingly every time I visit, even if I visit daily.
Contrast this with, say, my Gmail login, which lasts for weeks or months at least.
Worse, when I go to a topic but am not logged in and want to comment, logging in takes me to community.intersystems.com, not back to the topic.
How do we get posts featured/sticky/always on the top of the homepage?
We need the ability to have a couple posts always on the homepage. Most sites have some sort of Featured/Announcement/Sticky function for important information to be seen by all.
Since we have a way to see 'Unanswered' questions now, there are a couple of things that jumped out at me. Not sure if I am missing how to do these or if they need to be added to the future enhancements list:
1) It looks like a lot of people 'Comment' on a Question rather than providing an Answer. This means that there are many questions listed as unanswered where the answer actually lies in a Comment (but noone has submitted a formal Answer). Is there some way to tag a Comment as the Answer?
Typically the thumbsup/thumbsdown icons are grayed out until you vote for one. Then it is either red or green depending on which you selected. I like this behavior. However, on my own posts, the ones I cannot vote for, the indicators are both colored. Since the visual queue has already been established that this indicates a selected vote, I think this should be changed. Perhaps, since we cannot vote on our own posts, completely hide them.
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.
page My content, does not correct cut previous post, and style from one post goes to next one. Tag <s> - strikethrough, was added only in the first post.
And looks like, this page ignores <!--break-->. My collaborations page, does not cut at all, and show full posts.
Apparently if I pose a question (like this one) and subsequently discover an answer, I can't add that as an answer. I'd have to resort to a comment on the original posting, or editing the original posting.
