Status: Looking for Maintainer(s)

This idea has been implemented in NIPM 20.7. See this post for more details:

Stop forcing is to use the website. It is basically impossible to find anything.

 

Restore the browse functionality to NIPM.

Sam,

I completely agree. While receiving service support, I voiced this exact same issue. The person who was providing me with the support for my issue agreed and also revealed that this is a complaint filed by many users.

What's the problem?  Why don't you use the Search function in NIPM?  You know, the one that takes you to one of 5 or 6 (who's counting?) different NI Sites where you still can't find the object of your search (because you chose the wrong "bag to look in"?  I worry that if NI keeps "improving" much more, we're all in trouble ...

Sam is spot on I personally think this is one of most foolish decisions NI has made

Hopefully NI actually pays attention to the fact that this idea has been out for 1 week and already has 3x more kudos than the next most popular NIPM Idea (which has been around for just under a year).  Now if only we could count the number of kudos people actually want to give it...
