Thanks for the feedback. We have a build coming out later this week and this bug should be fixed in the build after that one.

Thanks for the feedback. It looks like you stumbled upon a bug, which might be permission-based. I'll get it in the queue.
Thanks for the post and a bug has been logged to fix this.
Thanks for the posting and for the input on the search. We'll get it fixed.

Yes, we intend to add sorting to this. There's probably some confusion on how these are sorted and the labeling - it should be the last time anything related to the post (comments or answers) are added/updated that makes the posting pop to the top. The date displayed there may be associated with the original posting, not the related children. I'll verify.
We did have another request to display the number of comments and answers in two additional columns. Would this be helpful or valuable to have here?
Thanks for the feedback. Sticky view selection is in the backlog to be done soon.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll see what we can do with this.
Yes, sorry I missed that in the release notes and I will add that now. I had hoped for the "redesigned HTML email" feature to make it in but the timing wasn't right so we settled for just taking the existing template to HTML. We have some changes planned on this for the June 17th release pending completion of some higher-priority items.
Thanks for the posting. We will be entirely revamping the voting system in the upcoming weeks and moving to a "plus/minus" model.
Thanks for the posting. I haven't put up the release notes yet, but the "view by member" is one step of several features we'll be adding in this area. You can now find members and see their content under the Connect | Members menu but we'll be adding some other mechanism for doing the same from wherever you see a user's name. Upcoming builds will also have "following" by person and by tag.
Interesting observation, thanks. So if the user is looking at the contents of a book, but in the left pane chooses Back, leave that book content visible until they choose something else?
Yes, this is using the same DOCBOOK content. We just put a different UI on top of it.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll see if we can do some kind of "copy link" icon at the book/section level to make it easier to reference a particular section of the content.
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, we will add filtering capabilities to narrow your results.
thanks for the feedback. We'll check this out.
We resolved an issue with the site not sending updates when Answers were provided. This fix had a side-effect of going back to old posts and triggering email. Sorry for this but it was a one-time event we didn't see in other environments.
We recognize there's a need for a class reference, so don't worry, it's not going away. The question is about functionality and completeness of the current class reference utility so there may be some refactoring in addition to changing the UI skin. There's some internal discussion about how it works and the way the information there is obtained. They'll be more on this in the next few weeks.
Thanks for the feedback. I didn't see the large right padding on the iPhone or an Android tablet but maybe something changed. We'll check that out and the other comments.
Class reference styling will come soon, pending some debate on the usefulness and functionality of the class reference itself.
Thank you. Last minute decision to deploy to docs.intersystems.com/beta vs. a completely different alias throws off those references which need to be relative to the root. We'll fix this on that landing page.
Mike - thanks for the comment. The stand-alone documentation is being reworked, first with a new UI and then with a new search engine. In the meantime you have two other options for searching documentation that didn't exist a few months ago, or were not that effective.
1. Use Google - we've cleaned up (most) of the old documentation references and fed Google's crawlers what they need to index the documentation properly. Example: site:docs.intersystems.com ensemble HL7
2. Use Developer Community's search and then select Product Documentation to narrow the results. All of the documentation is indexed here.
As for the code samples inline with the documentation, this is great feedback and something we will put some focus on.
This new page, which shows content by tag in summary form and also has personalization, is in the works.
There are two other things related to this - a new mechanism for marking tags you'd like to follow and additional filtering on the "view by tag" page so that you can see "New" and "Unanswered" postings by tag.

This was resolved last week and we've been keeping an eye on it. I hope you're experiencing faster load times now.
Hi Randy,
This is just the start and we will be adding new filtering capabilities to the online documentation once we release the new UI. Also, we probably haven't done a great job of advertising the fact that the product documentation is in Developer Community and searchable.
- click on search
- in the search box type in a keyword or phrase, let's try "web service" (without quotes)
- you will then see the search results, along with a selection widget labeled "tags". You can open this and add a constraint to the results. In this case you can select "Ensemble", which will include the child tags under it.
- the results will be refined to only include those tagged with "Ensemble" (and it's children)
- you can also use the Categories filter to choose "Product Documentation" to only see the documentation rather than everything on the site.

There will be a new page designed that shows what content is available by tag and it will be customized by the user's preferred tags from the somewhat buried "Areas of Interest" feature.
We are doing a bunch of work to increase our search engine presence and I think most people will find it easier to find the right InterSystems content in Google searches. Developer Community has gone a long way to add valuable content that is well indexed by Google - in most cases Developer Community content shows up in search results the same day.
Also, we have completely revamped the documentation UI to make it more modern and mobile-friendly. I'll be posting information on that next week.
Mike - the index was a listing of keywords. We have much better searching capabilities within the documentation itself, here in Developer Community and in Google results. Perhaps we're missing your specific use case here, can you explain a bit about how you use the Master Index?
Great, thanks for the quick response.
Mike - both the Feature Map and the Master Index have become obsolete so they have been removed from the documentation. You can use the Developer Community search feature to find documentation content by topic.
On your other points I think you're saying there's an issue with attachments. We'll check that.
