Return to RECENT IDEAS after a new suggestion is posted!

220 points posted to IdeaStorm by phubert 11/20/07 **IMPLEMENTED**

When I submit a new suggestion, I'm taken to POPULAR IDEAS rather than Recent Ideas.

This looks like a -bug-

Anyone else want this changed????



After submitting a new idea, you will be redirected to the Recent Ideas page





premcv
11/20/07		 I've noticed this too on a couple of previous occasions.
cosh
11/20/07		 It used to go back to recent ideas. They create a new bug with every bug they fix.

It's like the Mad Hatter's tea party - but instead of swapping seats, we swap bugs, one for another. Basically we have to stop asking for bug fixes once it's working more or less okay, because what we get next could be much worse.
phubert
11/20/07		 :-D :-(

Good points, cosh. Gets back to my much earlier suggestion: REDESIGN the SITE
premcv
11/20/07		 Swap bugs, is right. That's what happens.
jorge
11/20/07		 It works for me, or it worked for me the last time I posted an idea. Guess they broke it.
winoffice
11/20/07		 Last time I posted an idea a week ago, I was taken to the RECENT IDEAS page, not POPULAR IDEAS. So I do not see a problem here.
phubert
11/20/07		 no problem because it didn't affect you??????? try one now. :-)
cosh
11/20/07		 @Winoffice, they've rolled out some new bug fixes since then, and of course introduced a new set of bugs. E.g., go to http://www.ideastorm.com/recent. It used to go to the recent ideas, and indeed the page title still says that, but it's clearly the popular ideas list that's displayed.

11/20/07		 @cosh: We are aware of the issue with manually trying to access recent ideas. This is scheduled to be fixed today. I will let you know after this fix goes live. Thanks!

11/20/07		 OMG a dell admin type is on site!!!
phubert
11/20/07		 :-) and she responds to cosh when I submitted this???? are they not speaking to me???? :-( sniff...
premcv
11/20/07		 Kara_k is DA10. I presume!
kara_k
11/20/07		 @phubert: Didn't mean to ignore you :) I noticed cosh's comment about the specific issue we already identified and are taking care of.

Has anyone other than phubert and premcv recently been redirected to 'popular ideas' after submitting a new idea?
jervis961
11/20/07		 Every time I post a new idea it says recent ideas but shows popular ideas, kara_k.
sugarbear
11/20/07		 It did to me also.
kara_k
11/20/07		 @cosh: The bug fix for recent ideas is live.

@phubert: We will look into this other potential issue. Thanks!
kara_k
11/20/07		 Changed status to **UNDER REVIEW**.
jorge
11/20/07		 *** UNDER TESTING ***

Due to lack of SalesForce Testing protocol.
jervis961
11/21/07		 The comment tab is still broken. Shows kara_k as the last commenter on this idea. Nice!
premcv
11/21/07		 Strange.
phubert
11/21/07		 Looks like it's been fixed already...
premcv
11/21/07		 Yes! I thought so too!
cosh
11/25/07		 They should change it to **IMPLEMENTED** or **FIXED** now or something.
sugarbear
11/25/07		 Or fixed for now, until the next update.
jorge
11/25/07		 *** THEY HAVE NO WAY OF PROVING THIS FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON ***
winoffice
11/25/07		 jorge - "Due to lack of SalesForce Testing protocol." LOL!
sugarbear
11/25/07		 What testing protocol, it`s hard to stay focused in your pajama`s.
kara_k
Mar 12		 Changed status to **IMPLEMENTED**.
sugarbear
Mar 12		 I think we can see it now.
phubert
Mar 12		 Thank you, Kara.

I had a work-around that I must now un-do, so to speak...
