Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

My post description & search function

Hi, I don't know if this has been suggested before, but under my post rather than having 'Description' ('None' is placed for each post so far) could you place the thread title instead. It'd be handy as a shortcut to a thread you have contributed in. Also, maybe a sort function with the search function - newest to oldest, etc Thanks, Safwan

Hi Admin, I might add, with regard to the search function and filtering. The option of filtering by 'forum topic' could be changed to show which forum the hit is under (primavera, spider project, etc) and can be filtered. At the moment, we can filter by 'forum topic'. Which I take is everything.

I agree, that one on the right doest seem to add much value so I will talk with the techies and raise it as a development request.

Thanks for your help :)

It does - thank you. Maybe 'My Posts' under the green banner on the righthand side of the page should link to the same page? All good if it isn't meant to

Hello Safwan,

If you go to the HOME page then use the MY POSTS link under the main blue banner you will see the posts...

Hey Admin,

Seems the functionality I was referring to is already here, but I can't seem to find the example you've posted. This is what I see under 'My Posts'.

Also, thanks for answering the second question - my mistake I didn't realise the options were there (or changed depending on the page you're on).

Thanks,

Safwan

Hello Safwan,

Thanks for your suggestions.

In relation to your comment "nder my post rather than having 'Description' ('None' is placed for each post so far) could you place the thread title instead. It'd be handy as a shortcut to a thread you have contributed in." I have copied the screenshot that I think you are referring to but I am not sure what you mean.  Can you elaborate for me so I can talk to the development guys?

And in relation to your comment "Also, maybe a sort function with the search function - newest to oldest, etc" I have pasted a screenshot in to show the filtering and sorting options that are available when you look at search results.  Does that answer you question?

Thanks... PP Admin Team
