I had a RSS Feed per product that I read from Google Reader, since the "change", I am not getting any new feeds. Developerworks still works fine, but I seem to have to come to jazz.net and look at the mismatch of topics all crammed together. How can I separate that back to what I need so I can EASILY view topics by product?
thanks...
P.S.
There is no option to select Jazz.net when creating a question.

Accepted answer
1. We no longer have forum categories, but you can follow a tag. Do this by clicking on the tag, and then clicking on the rss icon at the top of the page.
For example,  takes you to https://jazz.net/forum/tags/rational-team-concert/?type=rss 2. I will add a checkbox for jazz.net in the default list of tags. In addition, you can use any tag you feel describes the question. Sterling Ferguson-II selected this answer as the correct answer

I also missed those feeds...
There's now a feed link provided on the main 'Questions' page: https://jazz.net/forum/questions/?type=rss Today I set up feed links for a couple of tags that I'm more interested in. You can see the RSS icon on the tag page: e.g. On this Questions page for the RTC tag: https://jazz.net/forum/tags/rational-team-concert/ You can see an RSS icon with this link behind it: https://jazz.net/forum/tags/rational-team-concert/?type=rss Based on the feeds coming from specific questions I also tried getting 'comments' but I don't think this actually worked. Here's a comments feed from a question: https://jazz.net/forum/questions/78584/dependency-builds-with-rtc-40-on-the-ibm-i?type=rss&comments=yes Here's the tag feed I tried importing into Google Reader: https://jazz.net/forum/tags/rational-team-concert/?type=rss&comments=yes It was added fine, but I'm not sure how it's handing comments/answers. |

The problem:
There are RQM or RTC questions with tags of "v4.0" and "usage" only. So they would not appear to my RSS feeds by product. I marked this Question as answered, and can no longer see the answer....Do I have to go to the Answers portion to see it? Does this mean I need to connect to Question RSS feeds and Answers RSS feeds? They may have needed a beta of this first... Comments @itengtools I'm not sure what you mean about questions not appearing in your feed. If they are not tagged with a product tag, they will not appear in the feed. Our "Ask a Question" page includes a section to help ensure that everyone question is tagged with the proper product. Also, I'm not sure what you mean by your 2nd statement above either. You selected Spencer's answer as the correct answer, so it rolled to the top of the answers. Beta would have been nice, but even with the learning curve on this new Forum, it is almost universally hailed as much better than our old forums. Seth, I'll explain: Before, I would submit RTC questions to the RTC area. RQM questions to the RQM area. Now, if you look at the forum, a question can be submitted if you create RTC as a tag. That will not appear in my rational-team-concert RSS feed. That is one example of the questions I have seen. Instead of policy/process (or should I say "Continuous improvement") forcing the questions in the correct area, it's up to the users to mark their comments or questions correctly. At this point, I no longer care. My question is answered. Maybe I just need to read less. :-) |
