Timelines in AndStatus (was: Timeline Mess) #395
Comments
(Edited In 2021 to describe current state) Timelines in AndStatus#AndStatus has many feeds that are called Timelines here. Plus a User can add their own custom "Search timelines". By default the list of timelines can be opened by clicking a Timeline title. Any timeline can be set as the Default timeline, hidden or deleted List of Timelines opened for selection: Managing / configuring timelinesIn AndStatus v.27 a new way to see / create / manage timelines is implemented. Please read below and play with "Manage timelines" view/table ("Manage timelines" is in the menu in the upper right corner of the screen):
For each timeline sync statistics is shown:

@yvolk I think from my own experience with the "manage timelines" you might resolve this by using a default TL setting where users can [easy mode]
without any of the syncing options, viewing options stuff available to novice users. I would make the "manage timelines" feature in its current state a [advanced mode] thingy: for those that want more control in how AndStatus shows their TL with all the bells and whistles (incl the combined stuff). Maybe in the settings menu you can make a option for users to activate/tick [advanced timeline options] if they want to play around with it. |

@yvolk I don't know if this is the same issue but my Home Combined timeline isn't displaying posts in the right order. I expect the application to always display the newest tweets at the top and then go backwards as you scroll down, now the top tweet seems to be arbitrarily set and I'm getting posts from all sorts of times in an out of order list, with no way of sorting the timelines out by date. Is there any way to fix this? |
@rodneyrod Could you check if the wrong order is specific to Combined timeline or , maybe, to some Social network (please turn Combined off and switch between accounts)? |
Yeah the issue persists with individual non-combined timelines, even when combined timelines is disabled. When I did test, it was more in order, but there were still random entries a couple of days to weeks older. |
@rodneyrod AndStatus shows a date of creation, not a date of update or reblog/retweet. But it sorts tweets by dates of updates/retweets. |
Thanks @yvolk, that was exactly the case. Sorry about the confusion. Just out of curiosity, would it be possible to add a setting to toggle whether or not to show the original post or retweet date? Or even somehow display both. |
@rodneyrod We need to discuss, what to do and how exactly a User should see this in a separate thread. Please continue this discussion in: #417 |
I really don't understand the mess you've made of the timeline(s).
