@BenSherman , how is this one looking? It's such a pain to come back to News Feed after a day away and have to keep reloading multiple pages to see your follows' posts over and over and over...... Simply having 2-3X posts show up on the first page solves a lot of those problems (on top of the Alerts issues).

@BenSherman , sorry to be a pest on this, Ben, but is the silence a reflection of the site's inability to improve these items?

When I follow someone, where do I see when they have posted? I thought I would find them up in notifications (the little bell) but don't see them there?

Thanks.

Heels. Always.

Not a pest. I get it. We'll get there. I've just been focused on making in-season site content as good as possible. On3 has a great product person now in place and improvements will happen.

It's under News Feed. Not intuitive. On our request list to streamline.

Is it possible to remove the "likes" from the feed and limit it to posts made by people you follow? My news feed becomes cluttered with notifications when followers like a comment, and would prefer to only see actual posts or comments made by people I follow.

Maybe I am missing it and if so I apologize, but I do not see an option to turn off notifications for someone you follow reacting to a profile post comment. Screenshot below for reference. My notifications are filled with these from users I follow liking someone elses post.

You're right, the settings notifications are only for engagement with your own posts, not the follows. I'll check with tech.

The AMA on the BBall board today is another good example of why a staff post filter is needed. My engagement with the message boards is down overall in part because I can't filter for staff replies.

While still not ideal, I made an update to this process to make things a bit easier for desktop users in the last week.

Browser based add-on to sort a thread by staff posts only. - Forums

I have been reluctant to take this step to provide a way to sort by staff posts, but I don't think a server side solution I have suggested is going to be implemented anytime soon. I have been hesitant because there are so many different ways to view this forum vis a vis, computer/phones/...

Understand. See alt's temp fix above. And know that it is in development by the tech team to be added this year.
