what do you mean by this? prettifying the start page?

[lexruee]

@Bergrebell I assume he meant to recycle the user startpage from the CarTrading App.

@wanze Stefan, I tried reusing the welcome page from the CarTrading, it looks extremely dull, the opposite of motivating (both in terms of design and usefulness of the info). What is good/useful/handy to have there except/instead of repeating what is already in the application pane?

@svetakrasikova @wanze We could also show something like the current user profile page but more focused on the recent activities and recent earned achievements.

Something like a facebook timeline.

The current user profile page on the dev branch looks like this:

Facebook timeline:

It looks and sounds good, will try to look into this later tonight, need an hour sleep ...

@lexruee @svetakrasikova why don't we leave the profile page like this: and show the startpage like @lexruee suggested? so we wouldn't repeat the layout too much ...

Hi, don't have a clear mind to judge, but it may be ok. (context: am sick, have painful cough, etc, oh, how I hope I can see you guys tomorrow). S 1 Dec 2014, в 11:07, Roman Kuepper notifications@github.com написал(а):

@svetakrasikova @Bergrebell There is a little difference between these two layouts:

• the user profile page is public so everyone has access to it
• the user homepage is private only the logged in user has access to it

As a user I would be interested to see which are the next upcoming activities or where the user is located. In the end this is maybe the reason why I will send a friend request to a user etc.

i pushed a new branch called index with the changes on the timeline ... but it's not finished yet! i still want to add achievements received and friends added!

[Bergrebell]

@wanze @lexruee hey guys - sorry for bothering you again! could you give me a hint for the timeline? i've done some more work and i guess it's something right now but i'm not confident with the ordering ... i would like to sort the entries according to the "created_at" entries but don't know how ... any ideas?

[lexruee]

@Bergrebell Example how the latest achievements work:

# Returns a list of the latest obtained achievements.
  # @return [List]
  #
  def latest_achievements
    achievements.order('user_achievements.created_at DESC').limit(5)
  end

[Bergrebell]

hey @lexruee - thanks for the answer! but the problem is that there are achievements, friends & sport_sessions which i want to order ... they are ordered but only within their group

[lexruee]

@Bergrebell Looks awesome! Give me some minutes I think about a solution.

[Bergrebell]

@lexruee - thanks a lot! i've tried a lot of different stuff but nothing worked so far :/
