Attempted to have a look at user blogs…
-
I'm not the most clumsiestestest user out there, but when I just visited our blogging platform to have a look at recent blogs I got confuzzled and spent far too much time trying to figure out how to do it.
So, we obviously got an overview of official and featured blogs here: https://vivaldi.net/. But I couldn't find the overview of all recently posted user blogs anywhere. Manually changing the address to https://vivaldi.net/blogs/ did the trick, which shows a page with a rundown of recent blog posts by users – but a link to this page doesn't exist anywhere.
I could have sworn we used to have a link to the overview on our blog profiles and on the bottom of the main blog site, but the links seem to have disappeared at some point over the past year.
So, how are users meant to access this page, is the link featured anywhere? And if it is, why can't I find it. I'd argue that's far too hard for people with no preexisting knowledge of our community.

Agreed confuzzlement because it is just not there. When a member is logged-in the best way is dashboard reader. Thanks for the .../blogs eddress location I had not seen that one; have luck with this one:
To view "recent-posts" without an account Login use the location url=
https://vivaldi.net/recent-posts/?blogpage=0
starting with /?blogpage=0 [value zero] and then value equal 1 [one] and so-on. This url recent-posts blog page has a list of recent forum posts too! -
Hello,
You are aware of the platform is not totally done.

That's a valid and interesting question. I liked it.

I think it used to be under Community/Blogs at one time, but currently Community and Community/Blogs are the same.

Hello luetage
Where would You like to see such a link? -
Yeah, I noticed that the link I posted isn't the recent list, but just a list of user blog pages. The dashboard still exists, but I overlooked it. Anyway, putting a simple link up to the recents list (which should have a possibility to pick languages) from the main blog page should be enough. That's approximately one and a half minute of coding.
