Is there any functionality in the hosted version of Discourse that would allow for a customizable homepage or discussion feed?
We have a lot of users who ask for a customized homepage where they could see only discussions in categories that they’re most interested in prioritized at the top. This way, they wouldn’t have to filter through as many things that weren’t of interest.
Is this possible to do? Would be a really cool feature / functionality.
If you have a reasonable number of categories, they can mute them in their preferences. If you have dozens (or hundreds) of categories, that’s a bit painful and there’s not a great solution.
Also extremely interested in a solution to this. I want to set up a site that is 99% about the community, but ideally want a welcoming home page on the main domain. Thanks.
Thanks Jay! The only issue with that is I’d still like users to have access to the other topics, but prioritize the ones that are most important. In a perfect world, a user could prioritize categories to be shown at the top of their feed, and that featured section could have the most recent 10 discussions from those categories. Then, below, they could scan all of the categories that were of secondary interest if they have time.
Just a way to help curate the discussion for users based on their interests.
That is, in fact, already the way the categories page works by default. It sorts the most active categories at the top. That’s by design, so the categories people participate in the most tend to show up first.
(Unless the site owner has unwisely opted to force a static category sort order 
)
The only way this would break down is if people on your site really dislike the most active categories.
I am one of the unwise but I have a lot of categories with subcategories for organization. I would love to see an additional view of categories sorted by most visited but also have this overall view to help the user navigate the forum https://community.naturephotographers.network/
This sounds suspiciously close to that:

이 문제에 대한 해결책을 제안했는데, 여기에서 지지를 구하고 있습니다: New Theme: Tag-Pages Navigation
현재 Discourse의 내비게이션은 포럼의 카테고리가 너무 많으면 기능이 저하된다고 생각합니다. 기본 뷰는 구조가 명확하지 않고 화면에 표시되는 정보가 너무 많아 사용자에게 혼란을 줍니다. 고정 뷰의 경우 이 시점에서는 선택지가 너무 많습니다. UX의 일반적인 원칙은 각 페이지에서 사용자에게 3~5개의 선택지만 제공하라는 것입니다.
이 두 가지 경로 중 어느 쪽을 따르더라도, 이 시점에서 포럼은 가장 열성적인 사용자들에게만 의미가 있습니다. 다른 사용자들은 참여하고 빠르게 원하는 정보를 찾는 대신 길을 잃거나 흥미를 잃기 때문입니다.
