[Bug 1782788] Re: 'Watched pages' block on Dashboard to be configurable

 

"why would you want to configure the watched pages block since you
determine which pages to watch?"

It's to do with the way in which supervisors are using the block. Some
have many watched pages, so it's good to be able to just log in and see
which pages have been updated since they last logged in (i.e. those at
the top).

It's just another way to make the experience of using Mahara a bit more
'workable'and usable for their needs.

Title:
  'Watched pages' block on Dashboard to be configurable

Status in Mahara:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Not sure if this should be two separate wishlist items, but both have
  been requested by colleagues at Cranfield University.

  1) Latest changes I can view block
  Can this be configurable just like the 'Shared with me' feature in the Portfolio section? EG remove all 'public' pages from list.

  2) Watched pages
  Can this be configurable so that the recently changed pages are listed first, as it already is in 'Latest changes I can view' block?

  Reason being that some thesis supervisors are using Mahara to manage
  communications between themselves and students. Latest changes block
  is great as the recently updated pages are at the top - but it gets
  confusing when other students make their pages public. Watched pages
  only lists by alphabetical order and not by recently updated.

  These are wishlist requests, but would greatly improve the experience
  of our academics.

  Sam
