New Suppliers Posts button needs to be fixed and announced!

[kristin]

Somehow I missed that suppliers posts about specials and sales are now filtered out of the regular "New Posts."

That's fine, but it'd be nice if there was a global message announcing this to the members?? They have no idea that the "New Posts" feature is filtering out all of the supplier's new posts.

Additionally, its apparently COMPLETELY filtering out Accessory Supplier's posts. I updated two of my threads with newly finished cases today and they don't come up in either the New Posts filter nor the New Supplier's Posts filter.

I was wondering why none of my posts were getting an views or responses anymore!!

Can someone please address this?

Thank you !

Kristin: I can only address one of your questions... I am sure other Staff will be able to comment on your other concerns

As far as you not seeing the posts that you updated is since you posted in the thread it isn't "NEW" to you..so it apparently doesn't show on YOUR end, BUT the put you at ease I did see them come up on my end..

Thanks Light!

Weird, I always saw my own posts come up before in the New Posts. Glad other people can see them.

Did they come up in the New Posts or the New Supplier Posts?

Agreed, Kristin. Sellers are losing out on sales while consumers can be missing out on sales/discounts/whatever.

There is an option to return the "today's posts" button so that the forum can be navigated as before (showing ALL posts for the day from latest to oldest). But, shouldn't the "today's posts" button been the default? The option should be to use "new posts", methinks.

Edit -- Nope. I changed my option to the "today's posts" button and it still doesn't update ALL the posts (members AND suppliers). I guess we have separation of church and state now?

I'll make an option to not separate them in a few hours

Option created, user cp > edit options > under Other [Single New / Today Post Link]

So Alex, let me get this straight - the New Suppliers Posts does / does not contain Accessories Suppliers posts now?

[sorry we should probably have told you to include that forum]

As Kristin says I need to announce the new buttons etc.
