Coming Soon - New Feature - Timeline


G-P

Recommended Posts

Glenn,

I saw the new additions for the first time as I singed in this afternoon. Thank you for hearing the complaints and addressing them. It's a serious step in the right direction. I'm hoping that the new buttons will work as designed. I have asked before, but I'll ask again, will this "Timeline" page be the default opening page when we sign in?

 

Glenn, I hate to say, but the nude doesn't stay off, and "off" wasn't the default setting. I've reset it 3 times, logged in and out, reset, gone to a forum, reset. Good news is that the "show only my stuff" seems to be the default and does hold for me. This is a new computer so I'm not dealing with the difficulties of the prior machine.

 

Will some other folks please try this out and give Glenn some feed back?

I just posted this on the other thread, too. My experience with the modified timeline is the same as Laura's--the buttons don't stick, and the default wasn't "hide." In addition, the "my content" option shows (absolutely) everything, while the other option--which should be everything--shows just the activities of people I've interacted with. (Safari 11.0)

I have the same result as Leslie and Laura. The default is "shown" and changing that to "Hidden" has no effect with the option immediately reverting back to shown. I would love to be able to open up PN and be at my own page rather than having to go to my page from a page which I have no interest in viewing. Will this become an option ?

I'd like to amend my comment above to say that the "my content", which appears to be the default, shows the whole community. That is in line with Leslie. I don't understand the necessity of the page, or why this has to be the default page and why we can't have a choice in this matter. I appreciate the progress, but we need to address why this seems to be the default opening page and why we can't have an option.

Glen,,,Some members might like this Timeline thing,but I find little use for it and would also like to have the option of choosing my opening page;if it has to be this way,then the options should be functionnal.While here,one feature I find weird with this new function is that when an image has attracted a like/admire,the ID of author disappears and one has to scroll down until the image pops up again in the timeline it was posted;of course if you limit the feature to your content,then it will not come up if the poster is not in your circle of favorites.

Since this covers the same issue as the post I started, I just want to add here that I don't necessarily want to block all nudes and then have to change the setting constantly to see them and then block them. I just want to choose when they show up on my screen rather than having them show up upon logging in. For instance, if I have it set to unblock nudes so I can look at them in the galleries, I do not want to have to block them again before navigating away from the site in order to not have them show up as soon as I log in next time.

And having to re-log in every few days is still ludicrous.

For the most part, I have to log in every 24 hours. Today was an exception - I'm on hour 27 hours and counting. Any second, I'm expecting the photo.net pages to start rapidly reloading over and over. That's my cue to relog in. Fingers crossed.

Bethe,

Your post reinforces the importance of having a choice of which page we open up to, or don't open up to the timeline page. Since my question about this hasn't been answered after asking multiple times I take it that this is the new default opening page. Maybe that will change, maybe it won't. We all have our preferences in the matter of staying logged in, but it seems that it shouldn't have bearing on nude blocks. I have yet to see the nude block button remain on. Since I have the community timeline page set to my own stuff (redundant as there is a page for that alone) I don't see nudes, or anyone else's images, in my portfolio upon signing in.

We are adding the option of allowing users to choose the page they see once they log in - we are reverting back to Your Portfolio as a default until this option is available.

Glenn, is there a change being considered to the system on mobile devices whereby we have to log in once a day (as opposed to laptops, where we have to log in frequently, but more like once a week or every two weeks)? That will alleviate concerns about what page a login takes us to. We use to stay logged in until we decided to log out. That was a better system from a user standpoint.

 

Also, have you looked into the possibility of a CAPTCHA system for new users to prevent the spam continuing to invade the site (though it does seem to be lessening at times and is, incredibly, cleaned up extremely quickly by moderators, as the crowd cheers them on)?

We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!

I agree that before worrying about new features it would be nice to fix the current operation. As Vincent mentioned, it would be WONDERFUL to not get automatically logged out every ~24 hours and have the forum go into rapid-refresh mode when it happens(with the only solution being to completely close the website and log back in).
