Community ManagerWelcome, if you could do something to make it easier to find unread posts it would be greatly appreciated by those of us who were used to that functionality in Yammer. We greatly miss that feature.
I made this request last year and it has been in the Community Ideas list without any resolution since then (:
Community ManagerHi,
When you say find unread posts, do you mean when you look at the category view and you can see all the discussions you would like to know which ones you have read vs not read?
If so we pushed something that did this last night, if you look to the left of the category view you will see a grey bar next to unread posts, see below
.
In this screenshot the top post is read and the one below it is unread, we were discussion the colour of the bar, we originally planned it to be blue - like an unread message in outlook - but decided there is to much blue on the screen. Open to suggestions if the grey is to subtle
That will be helpful, but it is not really what I am looking for. When I'm in yammer, it shows me the new posts that I have not read, I can easily read them and then the next time I'm in that group, the previously read items are hidden by default. In your example, the unread items are still on the screen and I have to scroll through many of them to find something that I have not yet read, which can be very tedious.
Community ManagerThanks for the input it would be awesome, if you could create an idea on this in the community Idea board - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Community-Ideas/idb-p/Community-Feedback - it would be good to understand how popular this feature would be?
Allen, IMHO, ideas don't work at all. People use Community Discussions and it works much better, but not perfect.
