Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 18, 201113 yr You can search for topics, posts & blog entries in the profile of a certain user. But it is not possible to show his comments. For such a vital part of your products that is a real shortcoming!

September 18, 201113 yr these are status updates... I talk about the global comment system that is integrated in IP.Blog, IP.Content, IP.Gallery etc... ok... i get what you speak of now... and NOT only THAT... Articles and public IPC database records would be nice.... Anyone else Notice these... just not there??
September 19, 201113 yr ok... i get what you speak of now... and NOT only THAT... Articles and public IPC database records would be nice.... Anyone else Notice these... just not there?? I've considered it, but notwithstanding the technical challenges of showing content from multiple database tables mashed up in a profile...most article/database content is 'site-owned', not really user-owned, which is why I've not really traditionally felt a huge need to show it in the user profiles.
September 19, 201113 yr Author But the comments are clearly user-owned and since it is a gloabl system it shouldn't be that hard to implement...!
September 20, 201113 yr I'm not keen on profiles being turned into a site unto themselves, but I do agree that comments should be regarded as user owned. I can certainly see the merit in considering articles as site owned, but opinions on those articles should "belong" to the ones that posted them.
September 20, 201113 yr We can consider showing comments in profiles. It's a bit trickier than you might expect, but I agree it would be nice to be able to access them in the profile.
