favorites homescreen scrolling news feed

Hi,

 

With the addition of favorites, it would be awesome to have an app that shows updates for Chatter posts that individuals have marked as favorites as a scrolling news feed on my home screen. I see it as a small component on the home screen that scrolls through recent posts. Similar to what Gmail does for  news updates.

I figured it out...

 

You can build a custom homepage component in HTML that reference the favorates search.

 

Here is the code I used. For each favorite you want to add, cut and paste the URL into the RED section, and in the GREEN section, put the name of what you are want the display name to in the scrolling area.

 

Example I'm using;

<marquee scrollamount="1" direction="up" loop="true" true="" white="" height="40"> <left> <font color="black"> <a href="https://yourURL">Urgent Chatter Posts</a> <br><br> <a href="https://yourURL">Rate Updates</a> <br><br> <a href="https://yourURL">Lender Specials</a> <br><br> </font></left></marquee>

 

More than happy to help if my instructions are not clear enough
