Grouped file actions in one sentence about activity HOT 10 CLOSED

Yes, that would really be good to have in ownCloud 7.

@jancborchardt what do you think about grouping in user as well as file direction:

• UserA changed FileX, FileY, FileZ and 3 more.
• UserA, UserB, UserC and 3 more changed FileX.

If this sounds logical, I will start implementing it next week.

@nickvergessen yeah, that sounds good. On first thought it seemingly makes most sense to group on files – as Activity is not for monitoring other people but for watching what happens with your files. But then, if a lot of people modify different files this might get crowded.

Your proposal seems a good solution to that. Just do both, divided into chunks of when it happened.

Currently we display the full path on mouse over.
Should we also display all items then? There is a maximum of 30 items per group, so I guess it is possible to do that

Example:

UI

You created H.txt, G.txt, F.txt, and 5 more

Hover-Option 1

You created /Folder/H.txt, /Folder/G.txt, /Folder/F.txt, and 5 more

Hover-Option 2

You created /Folder/H.txt, /Folder/G.txt, /Folder/F.txt, /Folder/E.txt, /Folder/D.txt, /Folder/C.txt, /Folder/B.txt, /Folder/A.txt

from activity.

@nickvergessen the full path should only be shown for each individual file. Hovering over one file should show that files’ full path (using a tipsy tooltip please). That should happen for those which are displayed directly.

Now for the »5 more« we can do it two ways:

• when you click that notice, show those other file names as well. You can then also hover the other filenames for the full path.
• when you hover the notice, show the other file names

I prefer the first option, but it might be more work. The second one is also ok with me.

Also, leave out the initial slash of the path. That looks strange to non-technical people.

@jancborchardt sounds like a plan. Please add as todos in first post?

Done.
