Lost identity, RSS feeds, and pdf download option

Yves Kervadec 8 years ago updated 7 years ago 4

I did create an account for beta testing the new community, with the same Suser as the one I used on SCN... and now I cannot use my SCN account anymore. I've alerady lost an identity during the migration from SDN to SCN.


It is also very disapointing to loose all the RSS feeds I was following. that was very usefull to quickly browse the latest question / information in the topic I'm interested in.

But what the use of being the first to provide an accurate help as points are gone :-)


By the way the option for downloading blog/question/document to PDF format has gone



Thanks

Hi Yke,

Unless your S user became inactive (e.g. because of leaving that customer), your authentication rights should not have changed. Please send me the ID, so my team could check what's wrong.


RSS feeds had to change, because the whole concept of content containers changed from spaces to tags and there is no 1:1 mapping between them. Therefore existing RSS feeds can't be continued. There will be new ones in the future and some of them are currently already supported.

I would also recommend to check out the activity stream (activities.sap.com), where you would be able to see the latest updates regarding tags/people/content that you are interested in and followed.


Downloading content as PDF can be easily done via printing in the browser, e.g. Chrome.

Best,

Gabi

Hello Gabriella


Thanks for you answer.


My s-user is S0010915682, my old SCN identity was => https://people.sap.com/yves.kervadec and my new one is https://people.sap.com/. I thought the account was based on the S-User, as I was already logging on SCN using my marketplace certificate.


Converting pages with acrobat/chrome is not as convenient/fast as the old PDF download option.


I will miss the RSS feeds as they were really powerfull allowing to browse a lot of new posts in many areas. I had RSS feed for more than 20 different topics.

I'm afraid that tags will never be that efficient... but I hope i'm wrong and that popular tags will emerge and allow to federate information in a more efficient way.


Best regards

Hello Gabriella


Any news ?

I would like to recover my identity


Thanks

Hi

No news ?

I would like to recover my identity => https://people.sap.com/yves.kervadec

and have it merged with the one created for the beta => https://people.sap.com/ace-sap

both were linked to the same S-user, but I cannot use the original one, with the people I was following.


It seems I'm not the only one to complain about the loss of the PDF download option

A picture is worth a thousand words => Acrobat Pdf conversion on left, Jive output on right !
