Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
iloveipb Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 I think that the there should be a link to "My content" in the Log in/Log off menu (top right side). There's a link to My Gallery and My Blog... what about My Content?
Josh Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 The "My Blog" and "My Gallery" serve slightly different purposes than the "My Content" feature. "My Blog" doesn't list all your blog entires, it takes you to your actual blog page with all it's edit controls. "My Gallery" takes you to your gallery profile page, that includes all your albums, images, and the option to create new albums. "My Content" is simply a listing of everything you have posted per application. Having said that, I don't think it's a bad idea, our main concern would probably be adding too many options to that menu. I'm not sure that "My Content" would be used enough to justify adding it to that menu.

I'm not sure that "My Content" would be used enough to justify adding it to that menu. I've noticed that it was added to the menu...probably for testing purposes in the BETA version... Love it! One thing that i can't live without is the 'View new content' and who replied to my post/topic. For "View New Content", it's pretty obvious were to click. For finding out who replied or added content to my topic/posts, i usually go to my profile, click "Find my content" and then look at the icon to see if there is new unread posts... it's easier then subscribing to my own posts/topics just to see who replied or added new content. I also agree that to much items on the menu defeats the purpose. I personally don't care about the menu "Manage Ignored Users". That beeing said, i Hope that "My content" makes it to the final version of 3.1. Thanks for listening.
iloveipb Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 I forgot to mention that i also use a lot "Find My Content" to revise some of my replies. At night, sometimes, i like to revise and read some of my messages that i wrote during the day. Because "Find My Content" is order by last post information by default, it's easier to revise or read my last messages that i have written during the day....

That's a great point, I hadn't thought about it using it that way to be honest :)
