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.

      • Embed a Scoop through an HTML Code

        Be able to have an HTML Code for any given Scoop as part of the sharing options. This would enable to display it on any Web Site by coping and pasting the code, just like on YouTube for example.

        • Saving Content for Later Use

          When I find content that I like in the feed that you provide me, an option to save that content for later would be nice. I am on a "publishing schedule" and if I don't want to post about a certain thing one day, maybe the next day I would like to use that specific link.

          • Turn pages like a magazine

            Since it is about "publishing gorgeous magazines", would it be possible to turn pages like a magazine ? Cf Flip Board Wow effect. I would like to be able to build a page with some scoops. Other scoops on other pages. As such, the site is too static. Thanks.

                  • Assign categories and tags from Scoops to Wordpress

                    When scooping to my Wordpress blog, it would be great to use categories and share the tags from the scoop into Wordpress. The Wordpress menu system has an easy way to use categories, so it would make a lot of sense to associate certain scoops with categories. Since you already have tags, that should be relatively straightforward as well.

                    • More than one language

                      I have two topics for Cuba news... one that I intended to do in English and one in Spanish. But many readers of this subject are bilingual... It would be great if there were some categorization tools so I could tag stories either by subject matter or language (that way bilingual readers could view all stories, and readers who only spoke one of the two languages could filter accordingly). I would use tags, but how many people would really think to us them since they aren't displayed until you click "tags"?

                      • Allow basic text style for all scoop.it users

                        Allow the use of italics and other basic text styles for all users. When commenting upon articles or books referenced in scooped items it would be nice to be able to put book titles in italics as they should be. There are many educators who cringe because they can not italicize book titles. Quotation marks are not proper. I find myself apologizing for appearing to not know how to properly type book titles.

                                i think that few companyes and persons would be intrested in a ''15 topic'' business plan. why you dont create a ''pay-as-you-go business plan'' so we can pay for a full feauture curated topics according on how many topics we choose to curate.

                                  • An idea for development :

                                    An idea for development : enable to create various “sub topics” within a main topic; for example 4 “sub topics” which could be easily identified as you look at a scoop.it account – when you like to know more about the “sub topic” you scroll down the “sub topic”. I feel it will be useful or at least it will be for the topic I intend to have.

                                      • Post to multiple topics

                                        I am imagining curating 3 or 4 different topics but they will have some overlap. As such there are some things I would like to post in more than 1 topic in one action. When I post I am required to choose a topic. Could you consider that there is a check box and I check the topics I want it to go in?

                                        Of course I can do this myself by posting the same link twice, but that seems inefficient.

                                        • Allow RSS Feeds to Autopost (on schedule)

                                          Have an option to allow an RSS feed source automatically post on schedule.

                                          These RSS feeds would be especially useful for one's website or other trusted feeds.
