Flight tracking and flightxml

FlightAware Feature Requests and Ideas
1

would it be possible to have two different discussion sites? one for flight tracking/piaware etc and a separate one for FlightXML. much less clutter on the site and more focus for each

Well, they are in different threads? Not sure where problem is here?:thinking:

The only overlap I see is in the Feature Request and Ideas - Thread, where ideas for both are mixed. Maybe separate sub-threads for each might be useful, two top level threads or discuss both in the main xml and ADS-B threads. But that also depends on the way this is monitored on the FA side…

Edit: Ok, the General thread is a bit chaotic, too…

Does this solve your problem?

The Top level topics can be selected here

https://discussions.flightaware.com/

The FlightXML specific threads are located here

https://discussions.flightaware.com/c/flightaware/flightxml

when i look at https://discussions.flightaware.com i still see lots of FlightXML topics in the “Latest” column. i don’t have a problem, i was just suggesting it might be easier but maybe i’m just looking at it incorrectly…i guess i’m getting old

Then click on the topic of interest;

There is one for ADSB Flight tracking which goes to ADS-B Flight Tracking - FlightAware Discussions

and another for FlightXML which goes to https://discussions.flightaware.com/c/flightaware/flightxml.

thanks sweetpea11, sometimes even the “ins and outs” of a discussion group can be complicated

Well, this platform gives you a lot of options, but it is not the easiest to use when you are new to it. There was quite an outcry when it was first introduced, IIRC
