Add favourites landing page

Open planetf1 opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

I added a few lists (dev/user/commits) from two projects (ranger/atlas) to my favourites in ponymail. I figured I'd add a browser bookmark to go to my favourites, but realised adding a favourite just adds them to a menu in ponymail.

I believe it would be useful if there was a "favourites" page in ponymail whilst lists the groups I've favourited - and perhaps with a simple summary such as last posting date, and of course a link to open the regular list page.

When logged in, there should be a '*' tab at the end of the alphabetic tabs. Have you checked that?

I don't see any * tab - images are here:

I see one after the Z tab on the home page (second link above)

Ah yes I see it, but it was far from intuitive. I'd like to suggest an enhancement to make it more usable - ie to have in a clearer place on the landing page. Maybe as simple as moving the * to the beginning tab, to insert a placeholder "no favourites defined" if there aren't any, to add a link on any viewing page to go back to favourites, and ideally to add an activity summary/description into each line that relates to a group on that initial navigation page?

Of course this is just my idea.. I wonder what others think? !
