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. Social Buttons

    May I suggest that scoop.it add follow buttons for the biggest social networks on users topics so that visitors can follow currators.

    • too busy

      the new format is too busy. there are too many things distracting the eye: the new summary of the blogger, the "blogger's insight" are too much noise, especially when i scoopt it to wordpress. just text and picture is fine. you have the lovely colored backdrop and fonts working for you. simplify. maybe add subtle changes, like textures to the backgrounds or new fonts. allow bold and italics. but remove all that noise.

      • Better discovery options

        Starting out on Scoop.it I want to be able to easily see other Scoop.it topics/users etc. When I click on the Scoop.it logo I just get my own profile and the few topics I have started following. Had a hard time finding my way to your featured Scoop.it topics. Would also be good if you could suggest topics based on the topics that I am already following.

              • SOS.com/ Ajuda para famílias da ilha do Marajó.

                Tenho viajado pela ilha do Marajó e conhecido de perto a situação de moradores desta ilha e as condições extremas de pobreza em que vivem a maioria destas pessoas. Tenho acompanhado também as politicas públicas para ajudar estes moradores, politicas estas que só ficam engavetadas por não haver sentimento de solidariedade, mas somente politicas de preservação ambiental, sendo que estas pessoas que nesta ilha residem também fazem parte do meio ambiente e que ao não serem inseridas neste contexto deixam de receber apoio financeiro educacional e moral sendo portanto levadas a extrema pobreza por terem muitas das vezes confiscadas seus…

                • New design

                  Per my earlier note sent to contact support, I hope you will modify the suggested new layout and design. As someone who works in creative every day, the new design with italic font is not as warm, nor as effective as your original design. The headlines are not as bold, the use of italics font throughout the entire text does not allow me to differentiate my content from the "pullout." That's critical in curation. The tabs in the later font really slowed me down because they were not as quick and easy to read.

                  In short, I hope you may…

                      • New Layout - I like, but....

                        Generally speaking, I love the new design changes. Faster, better, and easier to navigate. But then last week you did some tweaking - which you mentioned in a recent newsletter.

                        Because the squeaky wheel often gets the grease, and those of us who are content tend not to write, at least once good feature was made worse.

                        When I scoop an item from my browser, and get the popup window, I often have to resize and reposition the embedded graphics. With the new design, you had made that easy by having all the graphic edit buttons readily available. Now I…

                          • Bring back the "rescoop" button on the daily email.

                            I love the new format, but my score has gone down the toilet since you started it. I think it has to do with the fact that we can no longer rescoop from emails. I know I generally click on the link and then scoop it directly from the source, where before I would rescoop from a community member's page.

                            Please bring back this feature.

                            Thank you.

                            • Roll back email change

                              Hi team

                              the recent change to the email notification is really bad. I don't want to get daily emails telling me 'there's nothing new'.

                              There's no option to get the previous behavior back (daily email if there's new content from the people I follow) so I have to turn this thing off completely.

                              Regards
                              Andreas

                              Btw the uservoice mobile site is really hard to use on android (s3 w/ Swype).

                              • Change daily message to curators and add more data/stats

                                Hello,
                                I've been scoopin' for over a year and wanted to say that many of your new product changes are good and more efficient. I do prefer the previous daily message with traffic activity (and small graph of visitors). Your new daily messages look more like you want me to follow other topics. I am already on Scoop and can follow as many as I want. Market to new people all the more and not to existing curators. We know your system, content and value. Also, do you promote certain topics and try to drive traffic to them? Doing any…

                                • Flexibility in Dating

                                  At the moment the only option is to "date" a post today, or in the future. While this works in the context of "scooping", it falls apart when you try to place context on content by "when".

                                  Let me explain - I have on topic where I am presenting content concerning the United Nations Millenium Development Goals.
                                  This is an initiative that has continued for many years now, working up to a deadline of 2015.

                                  No problem finding material, but I need to place the historical material in context - last week, last month, last year.

                                  Ideally I would love…

                                  • Make the "Filter" button and all tags visible to all readers, not just the poster.

                                    When I am not signed in to my account, but I go to the URL for my Topic, I can't see any filter options (tags). Either I am doing it wrong (I'm still new at Scoop.It), or it's not visible to a non-signed-in person who only has the URL for the Topic.

                                      Please stop emailing me at dellamirandola@gmail.com. I can't unsubscribe because I can't remember my password and there seems to be no way of resetting it. If this doesn't stop I shall have to report your emails as spam to gmail.

                                          I sent this email to Support by accident initially.

I don't want to get the same email constantly. It's email blindness, get's unsubscribes for you, and is irrelevant, especially when it's the same email every single day. Currently when I click your email of "Discover New Topics" I get sent to your site, I then have to log in (frustration), and then I have to click to find my topic to go and…
