Following (Topics)

Digital

Okay please let me know if this has been addressed.

"Following/Discussions" - Is there are any plan to add this to user drop-down menu (top right)?
Instead going over you profile just to access it.

Kulga

To clarify - do you mean list the topic's that you are currently following? The same list you can access by clicking on Following on the main page (below All Discussions and above Tags)?

If so, you wish that same link to be placed in the list with the dropdown menu as settings and profile?

Dominion

Hmm ... I see what you're getting at. Your suggestion would take two clicks; one can already get there just as quickly by clicking the logo to return to the index page, then clicking Following as Kulga said.

I don't think it would be a particularly good fit for the session menu ... but it might be a good idea to add it to the links in the sidebar of the user profile page, under @ Mentions perhaps.

Digital

Correct.

This is also helpful when user is in a topic.

If the current setup is enough, please ignore me ?

Theoretically yes. However, I think that area is used for things about the current user, not for the user themselves to navigate to certain sections. Since the list of followed threads should be private to the user, I think it makes sense in the navigation sidebar.

Dominion

Franz I agree ... I was thinking you could stretch the definition of "things about the current user" to include the list of discussions he/she is following, and that the sidebar link could be hidden to everyone except the user in question ... but that might be stretching things too far.

For one thing, including a normally hidden link there could confuse the user into think his /her followed threads are visible to everybody.

Agree.

But how about switching All Discussions & Following position?

That way it won't look like Following is part of the forums default tag/category.

Moving it out from between All Discussions and Tags might not be a bad idea.

Or ... perhaps ... move the space below Tags up so that it's under Following? So Tags is grouped with the tags?

Dominion grouped

That's much better! It needs a little separation to be more organized.
