Can I create a dynamic homepage like this: 10 Recently Active Topics (this week) 5 Latest Created Topics (today) 5 More Recent Topics (this week) 5 Most Replied Topics (this week) 5 Most Liked Topics (this week) 5 Latest Created Topics (yesterday or today) There’s a theme component through which I can create a homepage like this in Discourse Filtered Topics List, but I feel the drawback is that it only works with a certain timeframe, so I would have to change the timeframe daily. I mean, for now, it works on a basis that I can add dates to it, like: activity-before:YYYY-MM-DD topics with latest bump before specified date activity-after:YYYY-MM-DD topics with latest bump after specified date created-before: YYYY-MM-DD topics created before specified date created-after:YYYY-MM-DD topics created after specified date But then I would have to always change dates. Is there any alternative I can do in the forum?

Is there any alternative I can do in the forum? I’ve made an update today that will help with this a little bit: FEATURE: allow date-based filters to accept a day count by awesomerobot · Pull Request #33197 · discourse/discourse · GitHub (you should get this the next time you update Discourse) This will allow you to enter your desired number of days into the activity/created-before/after filters, so you can do: activity-after:7 topics active the last 7 days created-after:1 topics created after 1 day ago You can also use 0 for today (as in after midnight)

Also, the major issue with this component is that it repeat topics in every sort

[immagine] MihirR: 5 Most Replied Topics (this week) 5 Most Liked Topics (this week) Does your case require these to be literally most replies/likes? If you use the /top topic list you can get automatic time periods… top factors in views, likes and post count (and you can adjust these weights a little bit with site settings) [immagine] MihirR: Also, the major issue with this component is that it repeat topics in every sort Right this is a complication with sourcing multiple topic lists, a component would need to cross reference each list and remove duplicates. Not very complicated, but I don’t think this has been implemented in any available components.

Not entirely on replies and likes but yes, just trying to create a dynamic looking homepage. So, a component which can remove the duplicate topic from either of the field will do the work?

Yeah it wouldn’t be too complicated to add a “hide duplicates” feature to Filtered Topic Lists, if @gormus is interested. The findFilteredTopics action could be modified to store every topic ID in a list, and then duplicates could be filtered out. The downside is that if you want a list of 10 topics, you might only get 5 after duplicates are removed… but that could be partially avoided by maybe fetching a few extra beyond what was specified in the setting.

I’ve added filtered lists to homepages on several projects before and I’d caution that to populate multiple “most recent” lists with overlapping filters, you really need a very active community to begin with. Now when your community is that active, you’ll also have a much richer set of content to work with for building a dynamic homepage. In that case, a block of different lists might rather come off as static and not so visually appealing. Though for a slightly different angle, you could also explore just putting one or two lists with a manual time filter. That could even feel more dynamic for the users. As in this view: [The image shows a list of top topics with choices for sorting options like "All Time," "Yearly," "Quarterly," "Monthly," "Weekly," and "Today". (Captioned by AI)] That’s a feature I took from the Central theme and it’s available here as a block component: Manuel Kostka / Discourse / Blocks / Top Topics · GitLab

True, this might work but however I actually wanted to populate multiple filters on the page.

Yes, that actually works. If @gormus would be interested :))

Damn, that was quick. Thank you!!
