I had an interesting challenge this week as a I wanted to understand the specific engagement across a set of different departments (design, product, marketing) in our community. What I hoped would be easy turned into a couple hours of work in Google Sheets and eventually some manual work in User roles.
What I’d love to see is some options to tag users and filter off of tags to locate them. For example:
- in our case I might want to tag a cohort of users that joined in a particular month.
- Or I might want to tag a group of employees and use that tag to differentiate their activity from other employees.
Right now you’re kinda stuck with custom user roles being this mechanism and it’s a bad way to segment for analytics and even content.
