Title: My New Additions Don’t Appear In My Friends Feed.
Post by: washerdryercombo on September 23, 2019, 09:12:10 pm
As stated in my topic, my new collection items don’t show up in the feed but when I remove items those are visible. The only thing I could think of was that their are too many items in my collection for the database to function 100% properly.

If your new items are items moved from wishlist to collection, that doesn't get added to your feed.

I agree that these actions should also be added to feed.

It’s not that, I almost never wishlist things.

No, my friend was telling me that items aren’t getting added into the feed when I put them in my collection.

It's sorta complicated.  You have to trick the site into letting you follow yourself.

It's been so long since I did it that I don't remember, but I think you just add a follow button to your own page.

I still see the Sept 24th action as the latest in my feed. Have you added/removed to collection or wishlist since then?

I have nothing newer than Oct 4 for anyone. However, I do not know if the Feed is "live" data or if the site uses a polling schedule.

My feed shows I added games yesterday... if that helps.

And it's live data.  As soon as I add something, it adds to my feed.

I asked combo to make this thread because for the longest time, I wasn't able to see new items he added, and these weren't added from his wishlist. And now some are being shown but it's sporadic and not 100% of new additions. This is a fun feature of this site and I was hoping somebody might have a resolution to this issue. Do people with large collections have issues like this? Is there some type of resolution or fix I can do?

Thanks!

So I think I might've found the issue.

If you add things to your collection from the search/browse page and not from the individual item's page it doesn't show up in the feed.

You know, you click the check box and click add to collection with no additional information added.
