Creating a custom stream

Featured Replies

Hello forum Administrators,

I wonder if you would consider activating the content stream editing function in these forums?

While it is really only a nuisance, it would be good to be able to exclude the constant stream

of "Fs 2020" topics and posts which for those of use who are interested in the project but not

so much in the opinion, informed or otherwise, would be a welcome relief.

I don't believe this "constant stream" of 2020 updates presents a big problem for the majority of us out here...

There is a "Follow" button above every topic.  One can uncheck following a topic if they do not want to be notified of subsequent posts.  You can also click on Microsoft Flight Simulator Forum and look to see if you are following that forum (there are 24 right now who are getting notified whenever there is a new topic or post in this forum.  If your name is listed there, simply "unfollow" and you won't be bothered with MSFS2020.  You can also play with the menu in Unread Content to limit what you see.  If you see a Bell Icon in the upper right corner, you can edit your notification settings.  Lots of options.

It is exactly why stream are build for.

Too bad it does not work as intended on Avsim (it works well on other sites using the same software...)

Hello,

this is precisely what I am asking you to activate, in your forum it does not work as it should.

In other people's versions of this exact forum, one can create a list of forums and sub forums and

having created a custom stream,then see only content from those.

Your forum has this option disabled for your own reasons, no doubt.

Please consider enabling it.

 

Thanks.

Good for you, I don't pretend to speak for anyone else, let alone present myself as the spokesperson for "the majority".

Nor do I belong to the "us" club.

I will pass this on to Brian, our AVSIM Tech to see if he can enable it (whatever has to be enabled).

Hello,

I don't know if it is me or your Tech but the function is now working.

Many thanks.

I did pass this topic to the Tech but no confirmation yet he was able to make it happen.

Thanks, it could have been my oversight but it is all good now.
