FSFRebecca Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Have you got a question? Any problems, however small and niggly (also if you notice things we might not have spotted!) If it's a general query then you can put it here ... if it's private then send me a DM (click on my name and you see 'message') The first thing you'll struggle to find is 'view new content' - If you go to the Forum page you'll see a tab called 'Activity' and there are options to see 'things I haven't read', 'things I've started' etc have a little look. It's all there .... I promise x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froglet Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I've just discovered how to create a 'Custom activity stream' which was very easy and really helpful to see what I want to see! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSFRebecca Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 That's great - that's my best thing too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumperrabbit Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Slowly finding my way around! On the old system I always used 'view new content' which I realise now we use the Activity tab - but when you got the list of unread posts you used to be able to go the 'last unread post' so that you didn't always have to start at page 1 and flick through, especially as some posts are pages long! - can you still do that?

FSFRebecca Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Hi thumperrabbit, Yes, you can make the system show you whatever you want to see: Go to the 'Activity' tab on the Forum page, click on 'My Activity Streams', at the bottom of the list it says 'Create New Stream' click on it. Now you can choose what you want to see: you can choose to see all the content and comments, then you can choose whether to see the first thing you haven't read etc If you click on the little cog icons next to the records you get to see a little drop down box which will tell you what the particular record is (so you can say yes to articles, but no to book reviews for example). At the moment, I've got mine set to show me 'All' if I then find that I'm getting things I don't want to see I can go into the records and check that particular thing 'out' of my selection. Have a play with this 'Activity' bit and see how you get on. Ask again if you are still stuck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froglet Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Also on the list of unread posts there is a dark blue circle (or star if you already posted in that thread) to the left of the title. If you click on this rather the title it will take you to the first unread post in the thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissie Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I used to be able to click on the Tapestry sign at the top of page and get into Tapestry , but now i cant ? how do you get onto tapestry from the forum please ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Hi Chrissie - Do you mean you used to get taken to the tapestry.info page and then log in from there? If so, you're quite right - there's now an extra step involved, as we decided to include an extra Tapestry information page on eyfs.info. So now, if you click the Tapestry sign at the top right of the home page, you will be taken to an initial page on eyfs.info, and from there you need to scroll down until you see a button called 'Visit Tapestry.info'. From there you'll be able to log into Tapestry. Thanks for bringing this up though. I'll think about adding a button to that first page enabling you to log into Tapestry directly from there. If I've misunderstood you please do get back to me. PS - By the way, you do know you can always log directly into Tapestry like this don't you? https://tapestryjournal.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FSFRebecca Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 Ha! Maybe there would be - choices, choices ... what will you do?! Maybe I'll just get Tapestry removed from your stream and then give you a nudge if we need help!!

Panders Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 so you need to go to a page where you see the banner, and then to the lefthand side you will see 4 tabs, one says BROWSE, ONE SAYS ACTIVITY ANOTHER SAYS STORE. Under those there are other labels saying LA Area, Forums, Downloads, Apps. Click on Forums and it looks very similar to the page we always had and scroll down the page and you will find topics you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are quite right, they were not there - we have uploaded them for you, they weren't transferred over from the old site as they need redoing and refreshing. They are very dated and the curriculum links don't reflect current practice. If you use them frequently you might consider downloading them and saving them to your PC in case when you come back to use them we have taken them down for 'Spring cleaning' !

Thanks Nicola I've put in a request that we get the 'Word' paste option back, most of the formatting seems to go over, but not all. If you have something that is taking up too much of your time then please send it to me, or Sue, and we will get it done for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TapestryMatt Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Morning all, I've re-added the Paste from Word button but your browser may be set to not allow the clipboard to be used automatically. I've turned back on formatting when pasting which should fix a lot of issues. Those finding Tapestry stuff cluttering up their FSF news, I've created two new feeds: http://eyfs.info/discover/16/ - This is just for FSF forums and articles, no Tapestry information should be in there.http://eyfs.info/discover/17/ - This is just for Tapestry incase you need that stream too. You can set any stream as your default just click the tick next to its name in the header. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
