Feature Requests

Ideally I would like to make the itrader rating system only for members in the trader/trader in training usergroups, it would be less confusion in many aspects of things that come up on the board.

So those are some good considerations.

I totally agree with this! I initiated several trades and didn't hear anything back. I think people just aren't used to checking this feature yet. I had to pm them and ask if they were interested in the trade. This would be great!
Thanks for asking for our input! HCW rocks!!

The notification system is up and running and has been for a few days now. You will see that you have new trade comments (either incomming or outgoing) in your notification dropdown menu.

See picture below:

Even tho' I think the new database is damn near perfect, I thought of something...a very small something.
The option of how many coupons to display on each page...it automatically displays 10 and gives you the option to display more...
I'd like it if I choose "100" that it remembers that as my option always.
I could see where if someone has a slow connection that they would want only 10, but I just want to see the whole kit and kaboodle.

Awesome! Thanks for that!

I just want to add I also love the new coupon database. Sometimes I don't know which coupons are available and when I am looking through someone else's wish list I'll see a coupon that I can use. I would like to be able to add that to my own wish list without having to go back to the search. Not a big deal, but it would be nice to have.

(i.e. so that we can add additional quantities to our lists for coupons that are already there).

I would like to see something similar to that also. When ever you try to add something to your have list or keep list that’s already on it you get a message telling you that; I would be satisfied if that message gave you the option of adding so many more or if it told how many is already on the list and gave the option of changing that amount.

I would like to see a trader search feature for the trade match lists. Say you notice that a trader has been matched with a coupon on your incoming list and you would like to make them a trade offer. It would be nice to be able to do a search of all the outgoing trade matches for the other trader’s name for something to offer them when you initiate the trade. It can be an option that is offered through the trade tab like the trader’s lists and trader details or it can be an option at the top of the list page similar to the search option offered for PMs.

I would also like to be able to have a comment attached a coupon on one list without having it attached to it if I also have it on another list. I moved a few coupons from my have list to my keep for an upcoming sale in a few weeks, but I only moved just what I needed and left the rest. I added the store name and the sale date to the comment box on the ones I moved to my keep list so I would remember what I’m saving them for, but the same comment was also added to coupons that I left on my have list. I had to remove the comment so that other traders wouldn’t think that the coupon was store specific.

There have been instances, where I would initiate a trade, and that trader has said, I don't need them, thank you. So I cancel and archive. But later, going thru my haves, and offering coupons, I've offered them again, not remembering that I'd done it previously. I'd love a way to remove a certian trader from a coupon (like, if their name is in the dropdown menu, you could hit "remove" and they would no longer show up in THAT dropdown menu, for that specific coupon) so I don't make the same mistake. Also, currently, without the multiple trading tabs, a trader and I will conduct a trade under one coupon, and include several others that match too, without trading under those specific coupons too. It would be helpful in this case, to be able to remove the trader, especially if you've traded them only a couple of the coupons you have, so you don't offer the coupon to them again. It becomes hard to remember which coupon you've traded to someone, and which one's they passed on. Within this, if the trader, that you've removed on your side, would still be able to initiate a trade on their side. If that happened, they would automatically be put BACK into the dropdown menu...

I like this idea as well. Great suggestion!

I'm amazed at how much work goes on "behind the scenes." Thank you!

Those four things really are Categories, not Sources. With that change, if I had, for example, a MIR that came from the inserts, I could select Insert for a Source and give the date. If the Special Promo is a printable form, then my Source would be Printable. As it is, people aren't consistent about what they select for Source so it's hard to use that field as a filter.

I would love to go to my keep list, and choose a category, then sort that category only. For example, with triples coming up , I would love to choose a food category, then sort by expiration, or value. that would be really awesome in figuring out which coupons I need to find to use :)
