Idea moved to different community: Notification email suggests the post is mine, but it isn't

Bud — Wed, 08 Feb 2023 18:02:29 GMT

@TeresaDolan and @JesseCloutier recently moved an idea someone posted -- from the ArcGIS Ideas Blog to JavaScript Maps SDK Ideas: Finish creating a line or polygone feature on mobile devices

I received a notification email about the idea being moved -- because I had commented on it.

Question:

Why does that notification email say it's my idea?

Your post Finish creating a line or polygone feature on mobile devices on Esri Community is modified!

I wonder if that wording could be improved to avoid confusion in the future.

Additionally, on the notifications page, why do the notifications only mention the post's old location (ArcGIS Ideas Blog), and not the new location (JavaScript Maps SDK Ideas)?

Hi @Bud
I see what you mean. It is trying to let you know that the comment you made on that post has also been moved but do understand how this can be misleading. I'll look into it and see if we can modify this language.

For your other concern, I'll need to do more research and get back to you.
