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.

  1. Eliminate duplicate suggestions

    I often have above 100 suggestions in the morning, and I find many of them are duplicates (sometimes 3, 4, 5 times) because the same news is in a RSS source, a google search, etc.
    It would save a lot of tiume to eliminate duplicates

      • Provide a "contact support" that does NOT rely on your widget (which doesn't work on my comp)

        Your widget doesn't work for me, hence I can't send email to support and have to post here.
        Your new CSS (aka "the slider") has been broken since day one.
        For some reason,it works on bazaar, but not at all on "news we like".
        Please contact me by email since I can't contact you.

          • dump the suggested content slide out

            The new slide out for suggested content is very difficult to use. The scroll bar for the suggested content window is inseperable from the scroll bar for the window behind it. That makes it very hard to scroll through the new post to curate them. Also, when you use the scoop it button in the slide out window, the whole list goes back to the top and you have to read through it all over again.

              I’m very sorry that you don’t like the suggested content slider and thank you for your feedback, it’s really helpful and I do appreciate it.

              —Based on the user data gathered by the test, we are planning to keep the slider (I’m sorry!). BUT, if you close the panel once, it will remember that position and always stay closed until you open it.
              —You shouldn’t have to clear the content in the suggestion slider to get it to close. Are you experiencing this? If so, please email me so we can figure it out.
              —I’m sorry we weren’t able to give you guys a quicker heads up. We had planned on it, but I think something got lost in translation. Apologies for that.

              Thank you so much for your support and feedback to make Scoop.it better. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have!

              Best,

            • reach our own post list easily

              • Reaching pages with one click less

                When a page is shared through networks, a person reaches a page on scoop it and then has to click once more to the page intended. It would be great if you could do away with this extra click required to reach content..

                  • Create Blog Posts By Exporting Tagged Links

                    See this example:

                    http://pegcorwin.com/2013/06/about-pages/

                    The fact that your API does not retain formatting either in Wordpress or Mailchimp is an important limitation and needs to be fixed.

                    • Ability to suggest scoops from my own content and suggested content.

                      Presently, we can only suggest brand new content, from the source itself, but why not allow us to suggest content to other curators from our own curated content, and from our own sugggested content?

                          • Thank you for the service you offer.

                            I'm a relative newbie here, and while I presently have no suggestions right now to improve upon the quite extraordinary services you offer. If I think of one thanks for the opportunity to let you know. Best, Aster C. Linn.

                                • Get rid of top Scoop.it banner on a new scoop

                                  Every time I add a new scoop, I scroll up to choose the topic, then down to add the tags and check the distribution. If it all fit above the fold, you could save me that scrolling.

                                  Why not cut out the 3/4 of an inch heading with the Scoop.it label? That would eliminate the scrolling.

                                    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.

                                        an "auto scoop" option attached to each source that would automatically scoop posts from these sources and share them with the default options of the topic

                                        • first @scoopit in my tweets should not be a live link

                                          it takes people to your site where they can't find what I just scooped...frustrating
