Abstract: A digital magazine server receives user interactions with content items presented to users via various digital magazines. The digital magazine server retrieves interactions associated with a content item that are also associated with multiple digital magazines. From the retrieved interactions, the digital magazine server generates information describing global interactions with a content item that are associated with multiple digital magazines. The digital magazine server may filter interactions with the content item that are associated with different digital magazines based on characteristics of the interactions and the information describing global interactions with the content item generated based on the filtered interactions.

Abstract: A digital magazine presents content items to a user including one or more animation files. An animation file includes a plurality of frames that each has a variable display duration. To improve presentation of an animation file, a number of frames of the animation file that are preloaded into a memory of the client device on which the animation file is presented is determined based on contextual features describing computing resources available to the client device and on the display duration of frames of the animation file subsequent to a currently displayed frame of the animation file. Additionally, an animation file may be selected for preloading and display from a plurality of animation files based on a ranking the animation files.

Abstract: A digital magazine server generates pages presenting content items to a user in slots of a page template describing a relative positioning of content regions presenting content items. A page template may include a limited number of slots that limits the number of content regions presented to a user. If a number of content items selected for presentation to the user exceeds the limited number of slots in a page template, a plurality of content items are selected and used to generate a combined content item. The combined content item identifies each of the selected plurality of content items and allows a user to view information from various content items used to generate the combined content item.
