Why can't I see the "subscribe to view" option? Could someone please post specific instructions, since I seem to be missing something. Thanks Edit: NM, it showed up after I posted this message? Looks like there may be a bug in the change. |

I, for one, appreciate the heads up. I do not have the knowledge of the ins and outs of this site and would have missed it. I also appreciate all of the deals I have found on FW and do not bite the hand that feeds me. zag |

Great idea proposed by Zxavion2 to add Ratings to custom views/subscriptions. In other words, set a threshold above which you'd like to be notified. We'll work on that. Slightly OT but --> I still want the ability to save a search as a Custom View. For example, many times I search the Hot Deals Forum for "wireless". Instead of having to click in the search box, enter the text, click go, and then click the "last post" column to sort the results (which actually come up under the 'Classic' view), why can't I just save the search and then click once in my Custom View bar each time I want to use it?? |

Custom View Alerts may be somewhat helpful... When you search for "wireless" are you looking for all things wireless? Check out the image I attached in this post to see what our Views suggest when you key in "wireless" within categories. As it stands now, you can click on any of those terms (plus stores, manufacturers, deal types if you choose), save, and subscribe to the view. Saving gets you one-click access to that view. Subscribing gets you emailed any time a new topic is posted in that view. Now, granted, if you are interested in various types of wireless products, it would take more than one 'view'. In short  , thanks for the bright idea; maybe we can implement it. And, I hope you find some good utility in this new custom view alert feature. |

looks like the custom view needs little bit more work to make it effective... Check out this thread: http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/hot-deals/889108/ Instead of putting it under restaurants, it pick up the first known value in the body context. In this case, california pizza kitchen became the category. |

Real live humans do the categorizing, and we're working on improving the quality (accuracy) of that process. I appreciate your example to help us get better. EDIT to add: Looks like we've updated categories according to your suggestion.  |

Thanks, that is what I have been doing for the time being. The "wireless" thing was just an example. Hopefully you can implement a Saved Search View or something similar. Oh, and thanks for listening to your users !! |

I don't even remember what classic looks like and had to go check. The classic/modern argument is getting silly now but I guess people will always have their complaints. As for the custom view alerts, I personally never use the custom view and like to keep it closed but new features are always a good thing, so long as it doesn't mean removing existing features. |

FW created Modern against the wishes of many users. If you want to only add features to the modern interface, then expect lots of red red red until we all defect to SD.
PS: This is not a HOT DEAL. Shame on you. Just because you can (violate the forums rules as a moderator), doesn't mean you should. This is the only forum I look at regularly, so I, for one, appreciate the fact that FW posted information about this feature here. And "shame on you"? Really? |

Actually, I think this is a good reason for me to try the modern view again |

i would like to combine views so that i could do something like this: Hot Deals > Cameras & Photo, by Canon ***OR*** Nikon so multiple selections from each of the 3 filter categories rather than one selection from each of the 3 filter categories. |
