Hi, Community!
We are pleased to invite you to the InterSystems UK Developer Community Meetup on 17th of October!
The UK Developer Community Meetup is an informal meeting of developers, engineers, and devops to discuss successes and lessons learnt from those building and supporting solutions with InterSystems products.


Greetings,
I'm pleased to invite you to InterSystems Developers Meetup being held in Cambridge on October 25th at 5:30 PM at the Cambridge Innovation Center!
Hi, Community!
It's October and we have new DC release here. What's new?
1. InterSystems Single Sign-On for Global Masters
As you maybe heard about InterSystems Global Masters (GM) program. With this release, we introduced InterSystems SSO support for GM. So now everyone who has active WRC account can join GlobalMasters and no special invitation needed. You are welcome!

Hi, Community!
I'm pleased to announce that we deployed a new release of Developer Community.
With this release we introduce:
1. New post type is introduced: Announcement
Choose Announcement as a post type if you want to say about a new product or feature release, about some new services in your company, if it is event announcement or there is a new job position open in your company.

E.g. here is an announcement, this is another example of event announcement and this very post is an announcement too.
Announcement post has "loudspeaker" sign in the post feed. See the examples:

2.
Hi, Community Members!
The goal why we are posting questions on Developer Community is to get the answer.
Here is very simple guidelines document on how to ask questions which would get answers.
When you post a question you need to feel 3 fields: title, body, and group. And tags.
1. The Title
A good title should contain the brief description of your problem - it should not be longer than 80-90 symbols.
But brief doesn't mean one word. These are not very good titles for questions: Cache, Ensemble, Peace, World.

Hi, Community!
For those developers who are attending Global Summit 2017 this year: you have an opportunity to share your solutions, framework, and experience with the rest GS attendees and Developer Community.
On Monday 11th we would have Developer Community Sessions in Tech Exchange Open House (see the agenda).
Every presenter would have 10 minutes for slides and 5 minutes for questions. So we have 6 slots available at the moment.
We would have a live stream of the event on DC YouTube so you would be able to watch it and ask questions in comments to the streaming over Internet.

Hi, Community!
Please meet a new Developer Community UI release with new features and some bugfixes.
With this release we changed a color scheme to meet corporate colors more.
We introduced browser notifications not to miss new posts on Developer Community. They would pop up only if you turn them on and only if you don't see the Community at the moment.
Also we introduced the special inverse color for accepted answers. Like here:
Dear question authors! Please mark answers as accepted to make the world better (of course if there is an answer, you can accept).
We also fixed a few bugs.
Hi, Community!
With the recent release on Developer Community we have introduced member mentioning.
Now if you want to ping a member with email notification, just place in the post (or comment) following:
@name.surnameOnce it is published, a member would get the email notification that he was mentioned in particular post/comment.
So, that's how I'm mentioning myself here: @evgeny.shvarov.
Have a great weekend!

Hi, Community!
I hope you know the option to use DeepSee analytics portal for Developer Community stats. You can find it in Community-Analytics menu.
Let me introduce the beta of new analytical dashboard 'Articles' Views', which is available in Authors folder.
It consists of two dashboards, first shows the running total of the views for the articles (to see the impressive growing curve).
The second shows the daily additions in unique views (to analyze the dates of spikes).
Use the filters of Author, Article name, Publishing year and year timescale of analysis.
E.g.
