You may notice some changes here...

Dear Community Members!

We updated the community platform overnight on 31st Jan/1st Feb.

Most of the changes are hidden away from view in the 'backend', but you may notice some cosmetic improvements, too.

Most importantly, we are trialling a 'threaded post' view in one group - here.

Please let us know what you think.

I'm not enjoying the threaded format either. It works on something like Facebook, where I'm mostly only reading long threads full of comments for the popcorn value and can stop when I get bored without…

There does seem to be a consensus emerging. I think as long as we have functionality allowing you to toggle between seeing the newset or oldest posts first... I sense we will revert. I'm hearing: keep…

For what it's worth, I really don't like this threaded idea. The older way was so much easier to read and to immediately be able to see new responses. What was the improvement that it was hoped this would…

I was having log in issues despite support resetting my password and saying they could log in to my account. I found the only thing that solved this was uninstalling the app then reinstalling it. Can't seem to turn notifications off on the app though - does this need to be managed via the desktop version? I only use the app for Community and can't see a way to turn notifications off on here nor can I seem to delete the 300+ notifications I've received...

iPad had logged me out as of this morning but at least allowed me to log in on the Communities page, which Chrome on Windows 10 won’t do for some reason - have to open main CIPD website which says I’m logged into them already - despite Communities saying otherwise . But logging out of it and logging back in again then going back to Communities page seems to fix the Communities login.

(Swathes of spam appeared overnight too.)

There is some info on the login workaround here, David - although we should have this fixed early this week.

I hope so. I'm also having to log in through the main site as the Community page refuses to log me in (using "Edge"), simply going back to the home page, and if I visit the site more than once having opened from the main site it seems I am no longer a "Champion" as the link vanishes. To re-set I have to re-start my computer and log in again, as even closing the browser and reopening doesn't work.

There's not much point doing anything else, as I do not want to open my 'mail to another tsunami of unwanted "subscription" notifications, so have everything but this thread turned off as I was getting nothing from any other thread I had actually contributed to.

Hi Peter - I'll be sharing an update with the community shortly as we have fixed most of these issues. Might be best if I called you, so I'll sort something out today.
