Systems and methods for re-ordering social media feed items
The methods and systems described herein re-order social media feed items. In one example, the methods and systems receive on a user device social media feed items having a defined sequential order for display in a social media feed. The methods and systems also detect an occurrence of a triggering event and in response to the detection, reorder one or more of the social media feed items in a new order for display. The methods and systems further generate for display the one or more social media feed items in the social media feed in the new order.
1. A method comprising:
generating, for display by a first device associated with a first user profile, a plurality of feed items having a sequential order;
determining, by control circuitry, that a media content item is being recorded by a second device associated with a second user profile distinct from the first user profile, wherein the second device is distinct from the first device;
in response to the determining that the media content item is being recorded by the second device:
identifying a first feed item of the plurality of feed items based on the first feed item being related to the media content item; and
assigning a high priority level to the first feed item; and
generating automatically, for display by the first device, the plurality of feed items in a re-ordered sequence, wherein, based on the high priority level assigned to the first feed item, the first feed item is displayed with a higher priority in the re-ordered sequence than other feed items of the plurality of feed items.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of feed items comprise media feed items available for view on demand on the first device.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the first feed item identifies a second media content item determined to be soon deleted from the plurality of feed items.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of feed items comprise social media network feed items.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein in the re-ordered sequence the first feed item is displayed first before the other feed items of the plurality of feed items.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein a priority level is assigned to each feed item of the plurality of feed items.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein, in the re-ordered sequence, the feed items of the plurality of feed items are rearranged in the re-ordered sequence based on the priority level assigned to each feed item of the plurality of feed items.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
causing display by the first device, in the sequential order, of at least some feed items of the plurality of feed items, prior to the displaying of the plurality of feed items in the re-ordered sequence.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein, prior to the displaying of the plurality of feed items in the re-ordered sequence, the determining that the media content item is being recorded by the second device is performed while the first device is displaying at least some feed items of the plurality of feed items in the sequential order.
10. A system comprising:
a memory; and
control circuitry configured:
to retrieve from the memory a plurality of feed items and to generate, for display by a first device associated with a first user profile, the plurality of feed items having a sequential order;
to determine that a media content item is being recorded by a second device associated with a second user profile distinct from the first user profile, wherein the second device is distinct from the first device;
in response to the determining that the media content item is being recorded by the second device:
to identify a first feed item of the plurality of feed items based on the first feed item being related to the media content item; and
to assign a high priority level to the first feed item; and
to generate automatically, for display by the first device, the plurality of feed items in a re-ordered sequence, wherein, based on the high priority level assigned to the first feed item, the first feed item is displayed with a higher priority in the re-ordered sequence than other feed items of the plurality of feed items.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of feed items comprise media feed items available for view on demand on the first device.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the first feed item identifies a second media content item determined to be soon deleted from the plurality of feed items.
13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of feed items comprise social media network feed items.
14. The system of claim 10 , wherein in the re-ordered sequence the first feed item is displayed first before the other feed items of the plurality of feed items.
15. The system of claim 10 , wherein a priority level is assigned to each feed item of the plurality of feed items.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein, in the re-ordered sequence, the feed items of the plurality of feed items are rearranged in the re-ordered sequence based on the priority level assigned to each feed item of the plurality of feed items.
17. A method comprising:
generating, by control circuitry, for a first display by a first device, a plurality of feed items, wherein the first device is associated with a first profile;
determining, by the control circuitry, that a second device associated with a second user profile is storing a content item associated with a particular feed item of the plurality of feed items, wherein the second user profile is distinct from the first user profile and is related to the first user profile, wherein the second device is distinct from the first device;
based at least in part on the determining that the second device is storing the content item, assigning a high priority level to the particular feed item; and
generating, by the control circuitry, a second display by the first device subsequent to the first display, wherein in the second display the particular feed item is displayed, based on the assigned high priority level, with a higher priority than in the first display.
18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the plurality of feed items comprise social media network feed items, and wherein the second user profile is related to the second user profile as a social media connection of the first user profile.
19. The method of claim 17 , wherein in the first display the plurality of feed items are displayed in a first sequence, wherein in the second display the plurality of feed items are re-ordered such that the particular feed item is displayed higher in the re-ordered sequence than in the first sequence.
20. The method of claim 17 , wherein the content item is a trigger feed item of a second plurality of feed items displayed by the second device.
