I have just received an email digest for a post I submitted as someone has added an answer but it was not clear from the digest why I had received the digest or what had changed.

1) When reading the digest in Outlook it has poor layout and style

Main text is light green on white background - poor contrast

2) Not clear what has changed, ie what should I do as a result of getting this email

Would prefer something like

Recently Read is incorrect

I clicked on my name to view my profile. It shows a list of recently read posts. This list is incorrect. It seems to be listing all the posts on the homepage as post I have read. I have not read the majority of these posts.

Perhaps the recently read logic is broken? I assume recently read would require me to actually view the posting to consider it read?

Can you correct (or remove) this information in the profiles

broken font with "Back"

I just noticed a new navigation item - "Back" now appears above the "Links side bar when viewing posts.

It is in the wrong font. Also it seems very odd place for this navigation item.

It alters the page layout by moving the content down & introducing more whitespace.

See image:

Announcements on homepage?

Should items in the announcement group be shown on the homepage?

It would seem if there was an announcement (like the field test or Global Summit) it show up some where on everyones home page.

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!

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?

Hi Developers!

Recently we updated the look and feel of articles on DC:

The font is bigger, with no ads on aside.

Articles look like that now:

The intent was to make reading process for articles more focused cause sometimes we want to share a deeper thought with article and this needs more concentration and less distraction.

Do you like it?

Share your thoughts, please?

[request] a more compact index

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.

As well as participating in DC I continue to monitor the Google Group at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/intersystems-public-cache

Since yesterday the Google Group has started receiving postings from a user called intersystems.dc. These postings look like they're trying to replicate DC postings, though images don't appear. Nor are there any links leading across to DC, which is where the follow-up comments and answers are likely to appear.

It looks like the logged in homepage is missing some elements.

- Masthead image with info about Global Summit

- Announcements - I thought items from the announcment group would be on the home page (seems logical important announcments on the homepage?)

There just seems to be some random posts on the home page. What filter put them on my homepage?

It is not newest based on the timedate stamp.

It is not based on groups or tags.

It is not based on the number of comments

topic vs tag?

When I create a post, it requires I select Related Topics.

On the right side there is browse by tag.

Are Topics = Tags?

If so can the DC admin please be consistent with the naming convention? Pick one and correct all the instances

Chasing the footer

When I am looking at the list of posts in a community (or is it a group? If so what is the difference?)

https://community.intersystems.com/group/developer-community-feedback

There is a footer that is constantly falling off the bottom of the page after I scroll down.

This is due to the load and show more posts when I scroll to the bottom functionality (not the best UX)

Is there anyway to stop the footer from running away all the time?

as described in How to post an article from Word or Google Docs, you can use the Paste from Word button to paste content you have copied from a Word or Google Docs document into a Developer Community post.

this worked well for me pasting from Word 10 documents, and retained most (though not all) of my Word formatting. i did have one problem, however, and wanted to pass on my workaround.
