Option to exclude gray/voted articles from lists.

1180 points posted to IdeaStorm by arclight 02/26/07

An option to exclude articles that a user already voted on when bringing up a list in IdeaStorm. For example- to be able to bring up "popular ideas" list without any 'grey' vote articles appearing.

Ideas I haven't voted on view

I think this was already requested, but it would be nice to be able to choose to display only ideas you haven't voted on to be visible in ideastorm. Saves having to plough through page after page of old news.

Thanks

IdeaStorm Sort by Un-voted Ideas

How about adding a Sort Ideas by Non-Voted status. This way we don't re-view ideas we've already voted on.

So a tab next to "ideas in action" named "un-voted ideas", would sort ideas by newest un-voted ideas (per user).

Add the tab "Ideas I haven't voted on"

This will make it easier for users to vote on old ideas. put it between "recent ideas" and "comments"

Popular ideas you haven't voted on

Dell should have a tab, along with "popular ideas" for "popular ideas you haven't voted on", or it should have an ability to click on a box when you're in the "popular ideas" view to see only what you haven't voted on.

That way it would be easy to see what other people have voted highly but I haven't voted on yet. Right now I need to click on popular ideas and keep scrolling down...

You do have my vote. But if the Popular Ideas you Haven't Voted on, contains most of the duplicate ideas and comments, I woudn't want that section.

Please visit the Moderator Update to read about an important change to IdeaStorm today. We are changing the half-life of the votes, and you will see a lot of movement of ideas around the page. As you requested, more ideas will get to have their time on the front page!

Create a search tool that allows me to find ideas that I have not voted on

Please update the search tool to include and option to simply show ideas that I have not voted on yet and allow me to search them and select them by category.

somehow, I think this may not be a new suggestion... but worthy of reiteration if not... like so many similar suggestions regarding the site that have languished...

I had searched and it didn't come up, but upon browsing I crossed a similar one that was worded differently.

The search and the 'suggestions' offered when you submit are neither of much use, are they?

nope, search isn't as bad as the suggestions offered. Many of them have nothing to do with what I am posting. Think I saw an idea about that as well.... could have been one of yours.

Yes, search IS better than that... and I _can_ actually find some things...

I'd be happy with a search button. That works.

Option to hide ideas you've already voted on

You should be able to hide ideas you've already voted on.

Why make us go through screen after screen of things we have already voted on every time we want to read and vote for other ideas? Especially since the first page is stuff that's obviously very popular and rarely changes.

Ahh , looks like my idea got merged. This is one I didn't see until after I made mine and went through, back when search failed at life.

"Ideas Which I have Not Voted On" Button/Link

I think we need a "Ideas Which I have Not Voted On" button.
If someone haven't looked at the site in a while, it's easy to loose track of which ideas you have and haven't voted on.

Thoughts?

Its a dupe, but i still like it. Maybe it would stop coming up if we implemented it.

Yeah, I think I've duplicated myself on this topic as well.
I think we just need to raise the awareness until it gets done.

I'm still searching for 14 ideas I haven't voted on yet.

jervis961... those are ideas which have been deleted before you could have voted on them.

Yep, i remember seeing the heavy hitters like jervis who have unvoted ideas and realized....its not gonna be possible for me to find and vote on all of them without some kind of tab to help me find them. I am at 6003 votes, so many to go.

@eaglewonj. 6003 Votes? I thought I don't have a life.
At any rate, last year, I spent an entire weekend voting on every idea that I can get my paws on.

I don't think the 14 are ideas that were deleted before I voted on them because the idea count changes as they delete. I know where I went wrong was when I voted on a bunch of ideas one day by using the popular ideas tab. When people vote the numbers change and some got past me. But that only accounted for 7. In the last few months that number somehow doubled and I can't figure out how.

BTW, Jervis, did you get the nice pen from Ideastorm?

He has 14 to find, I have....3000 something

Yes, I'll tuck it away with my 1986 topps baseball card set and McDonalds Monopoly game in the attic. XD
It was a nice pen, I still think it is funny for a computer company to promote writting things by hand though.

Oh good, we are all happily merged together. Now, can we get an under review? Pretty please, we will stop duping it if you do it.
