Concept

Webhits represent web pages and other content located outside your Kalivo Hub that may be of interest to you or other Hub participants.  Kalivo designates each webhit with a status to assist in their organization. 

This post discusses webhit statuses and their meaning.  For more information on webhit management read this conversation.

Discussion

The possible webhits statuses are:

• New.  All webhits found by a Listener are marked "New" initially.
• Unread.  All webhits found by a Feed are marked "Unread" initially.  In addition, you can explicitly set webhits "Unread" using the action menu.
• Followup.  Just as you might in your e-mail inbox, you may set webhits for "Followup".  Use this status for short-term need, e.g. when you encounter a webhit you'd like to set aside for future consideration or postpone the processing decision. 
• Stale.  "Stale" webhits have been waiting for processing without results.  Kalivo marks webhits stale after they've remained "New" or "Unread" for a specific number of days.  You choose this duration on the Listener Home page for feeds or on the Advanced Settings page when creating a Listener.
• Hub.  After you select a webhit for inclusion in your Hub, the webhit is marked "Hub".   
• Webhits with "Hub" status may not be deleted until their matching conversation has also been deleted.
• Archive.  Marking webhits "Archive" keeps them around for long term or future processing. 
• Because Kalivo never duplicates an existing webhit, marking a webhit "Archive" prevents any Listener or Feed from recreating the webhit at a future time; however, do not archive webhits to prevent their recreation; use one of the "Ignore Webhits" choices from the Action list.

Filtering Webhits

The possible webhit statuses are shown in a screenshot from the status Filters controls:

When viewing the webhit list, you can narrow the list by applying a status filter: 

• First, check the boxes of the statuses you want to view.
• By default, the "New", "Unread", and "Followup" boxes will begin checked.
• Use the Check All and Uncheck All links to quickly check or clear all the statuses respectively.
• Next, select "Show Webhits (with filters)" from the Action list then click Go button.  Kalivo will then display webhits matching only the statuses and sources chosen.
