Feedback on my tracks

Hey, got a message saying - Hey, you must still be fairly new to wikiloops -
Welcome to your newsfeed!

Etc etc

Then Just checked again and had feedback with only 1 notification ..

- Joe

Hey Joe - did it ask you to re-validate your email? We've had some changes there I think...

---

I'll test that later Joe, need my test machine (my browser on the main one is a bit too restrictive)

---

At the moment I get blank pages even with standard browsers Joe, and an 'error8' in the url. I'll report that - for you it works like normal now if you log out and back in again?

Or is your history in the newsfeed gone?

---

Hmmm cannot reproduce this, Joe - I just logged in with my account 'Streicher' (= member of the band 'Streichorchester', a bit like HerringK), and:

- I had 240+ news
- I did *not* have any message that I'd be new

So in case you'll see that message again, or still have an empty (or newly filled quasi-empty) news feed, please let us know.

Cheers,
Wolfgang

Hey Joe,
Sorry to join late here :)

The screenshot you posted shows the filter for "feedback on my tracks only" selected.
It is possible that you only see a very limited amount of results there, because the system will fetch a fixed amount of notifications and filter afterwards: Think it fetches 100 notifications, if 99 are "someone you followed shared a track"-notifications, then it makes sense why there is little left after filtering (I have exactly this effect on my profile, too).
I'll take this into a bug ticket, it does make sense to make sure the filter doesn't lead to so little results, thanks for pointing at this.

Took a look, and yes, it had to do with the ratio of "feedback on my tracks" notifications vs. other notifications.
I changed the limiting tool to make sure you'll find a longer history of feedback on your stuff in the future, no matter how many other notifications come along.
This change will take a little time to be noticeable, as the feedback notifications need to pile up a little now, but you should see the difference in a little while.
Thanks again for pointing at this, a small but quite annoying bug.

off topic: your new avatar made me instantly think of Eminems
"now would the real Joe3000 please stand up? please stand up? We gonna have a problem here..." :D nice one.
