Activity Stream

[microstrip]

Myles,
Can we have an Activity Stream button that can be bookmarked? IMHO such bookmark is be very useful!

[lasercd]

Agreed. Clicking on "latest activity"doesn't really do a hell of a lot.

I will look into it.

I use the "New Topics" link at the top... I haven't figured out the color coding used for the threads, though...

New Topic is not the same as New Posts or Latest Activity. None of which are in sync.

There's "Latest Activity" button kind of hidden at the top of this page and again in the home page but not available everywhere and it seems to only list certain threads and not everything. Also the "Latest Activity" button on this page doesn't seem to work at all.

A couple of updates for everyone.

Spoke with vbulletin and they are working on the site editor to provide better mobile connectivity. The problem in part was the third party software they were using in conjunction with vbulletin was so buggy they had to turn sections of it off. The people who make the software for mobile connectivity have apparently now come out with a new version that is better. I can't tell you when it will happen but it will happen.

Two, I spoke with tech support about the old style activity stream like in vbulletin 4. It can be done but it will involve me developing and writing another activity page and then linking it via the nav bar. That will take some time so please be patient with that project.

Don't know if you noticed it or not but it looks like the "Activity Stream" option is available as "Today's Posts" if you haven't logged in, maybe you can make that button active everywhere?

Thanks for pointing it out David. But it seems to me that it's the same thing as I see under New Topics, just a different name? Am I missing something??? I know it is late and I am fading fast.

Check it out, not the same you'll see the latest posts with the last poster's name, not the latest topic. You get the latest posts when you first log on but then they go away. Open two windows, log on, click on new topics twice you'll see the difference side by side.

I'll look at it tomorrow with a fresh cup of Ku'a coffee in my hand.

Oh one thing. Are you normally sorting New Topics by "date last update?" You will get a different result depending upon which option you choose.

From poking around it seems the only way you can see today's posts heading is if you log out. Makes no sense.

Yes, but latest activity disappears the 2nd time I click on New Topics. Like the posts here, this thread doesn't even show up on the first page after you've clicked on New Topic a 2nd time but sign off and sign back in and its there but its always there when browsing without logging in under Today's Posts.
