Ideas and Improvements

Hi! We want to hear from you – what can we do to make sure that Scoop.it is the best platform it can possibly be? Don’t hesitate to share thoughts, ideas, improvements, or features that you’d like to see implemented.

How can we improve Scoop.it?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  • Hot ideas
  • Top ideas
  • New ideas
  1. Allow people with FB, Google accounts etc to comment

    I think it would be beneficial if people without a scoop account (because many may not want one) could add a comment to scoops and thus increase readership interest and involvement.

    • better support for pdf's

      A link to http://lgtmedical.com/LGT_WHITEPAPER.pdf creates a huge blank white area. I'm guessing that's because you're only showing the top-left corner of the page; can you shrink the image to show the whole page? (alternatively, perhaps your pdf rendering needs some love?)The blank white really messes up my feed.

          • Confirmation message for clearing page of suggested contents on the right

            Hi, first of all, thank you for this site that i like to use.

            One thing annoyed me when i want to clear page of suggested contents. The confirmation popup shows on the middle of the screen, that is not very user friendly.
            I understand why you implemented this confirmation box, but a confirmation message just under the "clear page" button would be better i think.

            • Switch for turning on/off topic suggestions

              We find the suggestions feature on our topic to be a nuisance. It might be useful but not the way its being presented now. The content suggestions are generally not adequate for consideration as a topic scoop and it seems a little heavy-handed in terms of promoting specific content. Please add a setting to disable this feature.

              • allow curators to do HTML coding

                While most of the website is very professional, maybe each blog could allow the curator not only a specific set of settings, but allow us to change the HTML coding. Let us have a bit freer range of customizing the blog... the options are so limited.

                • Let us change the color font for the title

                  Some backgrounds make the titles of the blogs and descriptions hard to see... You should allow the option to switch the title of the blog to black , gray, and other colors to directly fit the blog's theme, curator's preference, and to help the reader's eyes.

                  • Promotion of a topic in the curator's list

                    Hi,

                    When a Curator has created many topics, the elder ones are on the front line.
                    Would it be possible to push a newer topic like it is possible in a topic to promote an article?
                    Therefore, if it were signaled important by the Curator himself, it could be seen by any visitor and not ignored as now.

                    Regards
                    @JMFLB

                      • page list

                        Hi, it could be very to useful for scoop's user (like me for example!) to have a page with a list with all my scoops (links). With this page I could find very quickly a link I posted before when i want to scoop a new link... I hope my idea is clear for you. Best regards

                        • Widget

                          Hi,

                          You've made a nice widget showing our last posts to be embeded on our blog.
                          That's fine.
                          Will it be possible to get a sort of widget to promote our main "filters" of our topic?

                          Regards
                          @JMFLB

                                  • multiple tags when sorting and posting to multiple categories at the same time

                                    collecting large amounts of information is only useful if you can retrieve it easily.

                                    THe inability to do multiple tagging to enable you to get to the relavent post quicker is the biggest shortcoming of scoop to me.

                                    Tag management and posting to multiple topics at the same time would make scoop a fantastic save and retrieve option for large amounts of tags
