Is the 10-topic 'minispy' above the forums coming back?


Recommended Posts

I can't see it :s

That's because the mini-spy isn't operational for us yet, only the full spy is, which you can access by clicking the 'Spy' button at the top of the forum.

im not using a block and its not there :s

Also worth trying to do a hard refresh of the browser, by using CTRL + F5 as that would clear your cache.

Can't really think of anything else..

Pretty sure it's another subscriber test. Give it a week to see if this next round of testing goes well, and we should all (hopefully) have it relatively soon.

I hope that the mini-spy one day will take advantage of some larger screens. I would like it if the mini-spy would be at the top of the forum on my Dell 19" to ensure enough space for the rest of forum, and on my 24" iMac I would like the mini-spy to be on the right-hand side on the forums. It seems like a better solution and would provide a better mini-spy if you have the equipment, being a high-resolution screen.

yeah i wish that its possible to customize how many lines the minispy shows, but that might take abit of work to do...

This might sound a little strange to some people here, but after using mini spy for a few days I find I actually don't want it. I'm still seeing the duplication of posts that we get in full spy, but minus the feeds from the front page etc. And being only 5 lines big, I'm finding it not very useful. Worst, I can't seem to turn it off. I click the up arrow and it closes, but it always re-opens when I view another topic.

Tbh, I find myself using the "View new content button" more than anything. I guess I've gotten used to navigating Neowin like this while mini spy wasn't available.

You will be able to disable the minispy whenever Redmak gets around to it by clicking it closed (rather than collapsing it) to enable it again there will be a profile option to turn it back on.

I still don't see it in Firefox (no Adblock Plus) or Internet Explorer.
