Here's a preview of what's coming. Styling is still being tweaked and it's missing a Subscribe/Unsubscribe link. This example is a question...

The overwhelming consensus a few weeks back was to have the home page ordered by the latest posts, then posts with the latest comments, DESC. The filters are just doing filtering, not altering the sorting. The "Highest Rated" filter is those postings that are at least 4/5 stars. We might revisit this to make the filtering options sort differently.

The next build has a new filter for "Unanswered" which shows all questions that haven't been answered. Each posting in the list will show the rating plus the number of comments and if it's a question, how many answers have been provided.

Thanks for the feedback. There will be another release March 10th and that has a lot of changes, but not breadcrumbs. Breadcrumbs are planned for the March 18th build.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll bug this.

this is coming in next build (March 10th)

Next release has an upgraded UI and that icon is replaced with link "Add a comment" so it's very clear now.

Very nice! Thanks for the rainy-day Arduino project!

The "Newest" button is supposed to be doing MAX(PostDate, LastCommentDate) DESC but doesn't appear to work properly on that message for some reason, but does for others. We will investigate. The UI for post listings will be modified in this upcoming release (next day or two) and it will look and act more like StackOverflow with Articles vs. Questions a new filter just to show unanswered questions.

I'll have to check into that module to see what it's including. It may be also tracking any posts that you recently looked at, I'm not certain. New build coming in the next few days but nothing will change in this area.

Postings should all be sorted by original post date and then the last comment date (descending). If you're seeing a page that isn't sorting in this manner please let me know. Thanks.

good suggestion, I'll see if we can disable the CKE built-in one.

Not currently. We're looking at exposing some of our JIRA projects externally but we're just now testing some third-party products to do that replication. You can send emails to me directly if you would prefer vs. postings. paul dot gomez at intersystems.com.

thanks. I'll write up a bug.

The current implementation of "friending" is not that useful or complete and we would prefer to just shut it off. We will get to it evenutally but for now consider it non-functional.

thanks for the feedback. We are aware of this and will correct it.

Hi Mike,

As Ben pointed out, the Developer Community is new but improving each week. We hope that the content that's being posted here is interesting and useful, which will make people like yourself visit it often. Besides providing our customers with a forum for asking questions and getting direct feedback from InterSystems developers, system engineers and product managers, you will find deep technical content here that is not available elsewhere.

I can help address some of your questions:

- If you have a question about one of the products or would like some feedback on a particular technical scenario, make a new posting. Choose a Group that most closely matches the topic in the posting and add any additional tags to the message that you think are relevant. Tagging will be an increasingly important part of the functionality and cross-linking of content.

- Read tracking hasn't been introduced yet but is in the backlog for consideration.

- My Content displays all content that the logged in user either authored themselves or made a comment on. This will help them find content that they've collaborated on. 

- Members are other people in the Developer Community. Communities are basically "Groups" or logical groupings of postings according to topic.

- Favorite is basically "Subscribe" which allows you to track any updates to a posting. The system will notify you when people comment or the posting is updated. Subscription functionality is something we are designing and will do some additional work on.

- Points: we will be reworking the "gamification" of the site in the upcoming months. There is no real impact or functionality associated with it at this time.

Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Paul

I've got a JIRA ticket already to find out more about this and possibly get rid of it.

The responsive design / mobile rendering is a work in progress. Adding features to the site and driving adoption is the priority and we will keep improving the design. We are planning a release each week for the next 4-5 weeks.

Thanks for the feedback. We are investigating this issue.
