Kevin Frenzel Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Just curious, this throws off our users pretty bad because it goes to another location by default. We would like to set that default to improve the user experience. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel R Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Just curious, this throws off our users pretty bad because it goes to another location by default. We would like to set that default to improve the user experience. ThanksIt's been discussed and suggested before that the point of originations may alter what's initially selected in VNC. For example, if you start in the forums, then VNC will show forum topics. This will make VNC 'smarter' in showing what's relevant to the user.I've argued the opposite, however, that the point of originations does NOT necessarily determine the point of destination. I also think that it heavily depends upon the mix of activity and content in your community. Mine tends to be balanced between IP.Gallery, IP.Board, and IP.Downloads whereas your predominant activity may only be in IP.Board, so you may only want to show the activity in IP.Board whereas I care about all content from my entire community. As the suite grows in complexity, I think it's important that IPS thinks about and implements options to account for all the potential iterations so that each community can be customized to the needs of the customers. Otherwise, we're ALL forced to follow the built-in policy of the suite that's dictated by IPS rather than the 'bespoke' community that we desire.

chilihead Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I would like it to be multi-select actually so you could choose, for example, Topics and Blogs, and leave out Gallery, or how you see fit.I do like how All Activity spurs more activity on the site. Viewing Topics only will decrease app activity, but as a default setting in admin I would welcome it, so admins could choose their own default.

Adriano Faria Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Adriano any mod for getting rid of Activity Stream and replacing with VNC? A simple redirect would do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekguru Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yeah but it would still show on the menu surely though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 There was a bug about hiding items from the more menu through user group settings a short while ago. I haven’t checked it, but I was expecting this to be resolved in the latest release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Edit the language bit and change it to New Content or remove it via template.I can try a plugin as a custom jobjob to do.both. PM me if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekguru Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Adriano - Free of charge or chargeable? Ralf - Just visited your site (looks good) , ref your 'Latest Forum Topics | see more…' block are you willing to share the design, been looking to get that sort of list tied to topics and I've not been able to achieve it? That is a last topics list with just a title and reply count (well I'll look to add a mini-thumbnail too), but.... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opentype Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I'm not aware of such setting. Where is it?You can set which groups have access to the Activity Feed. If no group has, it should disappear from the menu.

tekguru Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yeah I know, I've been trying to strip out the parts you've stripped all week without it breaking with no luck, that is why I thought you might be willing to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
