Niklas Pulina AdminHello,
Thank you for your idea. On this portal, we carefully evaluate ideas to ensure that they will benefit a wide range of users. Thus, we close ideas not fulfilling certain criteria:
- Suggestions with low user interest: created more than 1 year ago with 5 votes or less
- Suggestions with no momentum: no votes in the last 6 months
Unfortunately, this suggestion doesn't meet these criteria, so we’re closing it (based on the data available until 2023-10-17). We appreciate your contribution and encourage you to continue to share your ideas. Your input plays a vital role in helping us improve our product for everyone.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support!
Warm regards,
Your Checkmk Team -

Lars SörensenI find it very disappointing that this small and easy to implement feature that will benefit a wide range of users is simply put on the sidelines because it has received "too little attention in the last 6 months".
Older FRs are punished by this Rule because Users who joined later will only see newer FRs because the NEW, TRENDING and TOP filter simply filters out the older ones. Only those who actively go through all FR or search for it will see them. -

Lars SörensenAt the point where it is decided whether the hostname is displayed as a link (host exists) or as text (host does not exist), you only need to surround the text with a color tag "<b style='color:red;'>not_existing_host</b>" et voilà.
That's all it takes to make non-existent host more visible in the rule views and make life easier for the administartors.
