It appears that the constraint that applies to per-site meta posts also applies to posts from this site

| Nov 16, 2017 at 17:51 | comment | added | Shog9 | You misunderstand me, @Braiam. I'm saying it hasn't worked that way for a long time; I'm not entirely sure it ever worked that way [Edit: I looked up the revision history of the code in question - it never worked that way]. This post exists to document the behavior of the bulletin - originally, that information was drawn from the spec, but given that wasn't accurate I updated it to reflect the actual implementation. | |
| Nov 16, 2017 at 17:46 | comment | added | Braiam | Exactly, but now the specs read as "there will not be hot meta post if featured and or blogs use the 4 available spots", which diverge from the historic behavior that you describe ("there will be at least 1 hot meta post even if we have to go over 4 items") as it was reported a couple times as a not fulfilled promise. | |
| Nov 16, 2017 at 17:34 | comment | added | Shog9 | I'm not sure there was ever a warranty of that, @Braiam; these rules were originally the spec for the implementation, but I recently revised them to match the actual implementation - I don't know off-hand when the implementation diverged from the original spec, but the actual behavior for quite some time has been "always link at least one hot or featured meta post" without regard to which source. | |
| Nov 16, 2017 at 12:10 | comment | added | Braiam | So, now we would not have a warranty that there would be at least 1 hot meta post? | |

| Mar 16, 2014 at 4:55 | comment | added | Braiam | Does closed Q's apply into the algorithm? | |
| Jan 4, 2013 at 19:10 | comment | added | ire_and_curses | Ah, I didn't read the algorithm carefully enough. Got it, thanks! | |
| Jan 4, 2013 at 19:06 | comment | added | Shog9 | @ire_and_curses: yup. B&CG doesn't have a very active meta - only two recent questions, only one meeting this criteria. | |
| Jan 4, 2013 at 18:51 | comment | added | ire_and_curses | Is this still how it works? The CB on Board and Card Games only seems to have one item at present, an ordinary meta post... | |

Blame rchern!
|
| May 22, 2012 at 22:41 | comment | added | avpaderno | I noticed it also recently. I should check again when blog entries are not shown. Should I ask a question just for that, if I see that happening again? | |
| May 22, 2012 at 22:33 | comment | added | Shog9 | @kiamlaluno: is this still happening? It could be a factor of how the hot algorithm works, or it could be a bug in the logic that picks questions from that list. | |

Clarify rules for blog posts, try to word the rest of these a bit better, make this the canonical reference.

| May 1, 2012 at 11:50 | comment | added | avpaderno | Thank you for the answer. Is there an explanation about why the Community Bulletin passes from showing only the featured post, to showing more posts, and then back to showing only the featured post? I noticed that in the past days, and I don't understand why it happens, if there are already posts matching the required criteria. | |

Oh yeah. Link.
