Recently Updated Idea

Added by Timo, last edited by Timo on Sep 18, 2004  (view change)

Timo is looking at my local Confluence dashboard... and the Atlassian dashboard...
http://confluence.atlassian.com/homepage.action

...and thinking two things:

1) I really want to hide the "Test" spaces from Recently Updated listing...because it makes my site (and especially Atlassians) look well...trashy. Test Space has 99.99% garbage. I'd like to have a global admin setting, and also let users pick/choose from the remaing spaces which ones they WANT to see recent updates.

2) Recently updated ought to work like <gasp> ... wait for it...Microsoft's Group By in Windows XP Explorer. (bear with me folks...MS does have some smart people & ideas...and they know that to "embrace and extend" is often a good strategy)

So embrace this <grin> :

I'd like to see Recently updated have separate colums for:
Type, Title, Space, Author, Modified Date

I'd like to be able to sort on all columns...and GROUP BY all columns.
And if I group by Date... I'd like to see the table have section dividers:

Type Title Space Modifier Date

    This fits in to the larger question about how to handle a site with lots of spaces. I guess the answer is that right now Confluence isn't structured for a zillion different spaces?

      This is something we're hoping to fix with labels/tags/folksonomies - by hooking things like activity reports and the dashboard to tags, people can make sure they only see things they're interested in.
