Moar Filtering of Red Tracker

Chermorg··2 votes·344 views

Just some ideas for either optional/mandatory filters for teh Red Tracker for discussion:

  1. Filter it so that "Red Response" posts (i.e. posts created by a Red as an AMA or similar where they may have 50+ responses by the end) either don't show up or only show up once.

  2. Similarly, filter so that posts with more than 2-3 Red responses only show up once in the list.

Thoughts? :)

Yes, but it took them YEARS to get rid of help and support, this seems like alot more work so I don't see it coming any time soon :(

We've got to fight... for our right... to only see a post once if it's an AMA!

Wait.. that doesn't fit the song...


In all seriousness, I have no clue the amount of coding/whatever that went into the current filtering of H+S posts. I was merely bringing this up as a "hey let's see if enough people reply that they do this thing that we all probably thought of but nobody said that I saw". :)

I'd had the code sitting around for about 5 months by the time we decided to roll it out on Red Tracker. I could add more functionality to the filtering in Red Tracker, but I've got about 2-3 other projects in queue at the moment. Once those are done, I can definitely shift my attention to other projects such as additional changes to Red Tracker.

Tbh it didn't take long once the effort was made, it just had to be done with limited resources and no real development; it's more like a workaround/bandaid. Knowing it was possible was 95% of the battle.
