#DC Feedback

I searched fror "documenting classes" from the search button with no filtering. it naturally came back with 559 responses, but to me, the responses (and therefore the search) came without context.

for instance, one of the texts came back with:

Hello,

Is is possible to reorder the comments so we see new comments at the top? At the moment its very hard to find a new comments since the order of the comments is always from oldest to newest, if you comment on the first comment then your comment will be at the top while making a new comment on the post will be at the bottom. Also marking new posts with a different background color or highlighting them would be convenient.

This would be very handy for posts that are getting more comments than can fit on one page or just posts with more comments in general.

Here are the release notes for the release planned for Friday, March 25th.

Are these search filter options supposed to be exposed? They seem like they are some sort of system description that should not be exposed to the general public?

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

I noticed the system displays an age for each post.

Can it display the actual creation timedate stamp instead?

(Maybe this is a display option set on an individual account setting?)

Can we add the timedate stamp of the last edit so it is clear that the post was changed?

Hi everyone!

I’m the new InterSystems Community Manager and responsible for everything within the InterSystems Developer Community itself including Community Events, Content and Projects etc.

Please feel free to point all the criticism to me along with suggestions of course!

Our team is working now on fixing some evident and annoying UI problems to make this place comfortable for all the InterSystems customers and new developers to discuss InterSystems related problems, questions, techology and projects.

The DC homepage has a Top Stories panel.

What makes a story appear here?

When I click the "View All" link (highlighted above) I get the page at https://community.intersystems.com/top-stories

This one seems to reload periodically, each time displaying more and more posts. Will it ever stop? Or maybe it'll try and load every post there's ever been.

After the March 15th DC update I posted one Question (as opposed to Article). I've been used to getting notified by email no more than an hour after someone responds to a post of mine. In the case of my question, I think I only got that email when someone posted a Comment on the question. When I went to read that comment I saw that there were several Answers that had been posted many hours earlier.

While comment content appears to be sent in subscription emails, new posts do not. E.g.:

I think DC would be a great area to get feedback from current or future users of our technology about what new features they would like to see in our products and let them vote the different proposals. Open discussions/suggestions with no commitment on IS side to be done but sure there would be lot of good ideas to consider by our product managers and development.

Hi Evgeny/Anastasia

I spent some time just clicking around and found the old google groups discussion groups
These are clearly dated and the place is here

However it's not clear to users that they should post here rather than on the google groups

Mai I suggest that a big banner link is added to re-direct the user to ask their question here rather than there

Did I miss the March 10th update?
