It would be really helpful to be able to filter our cupboards(both our own and others) by tea type, like we already can with the tea listings.

Indeed, being able to filter (and search) cupboards and tea ratings by tea type, company and else would be super helpful.

Hi all. I’m pretty new here, a few months. If this has been mentioned, I apologize. It would be really nice to have a unselect all (like the select all button) so I don’t have to uncheck all the type of teas I’m not interested in. If there’s a way to do that, my apologies as I’m still learning things about this site. Love the experience here so far. :D

No, there doesn’t appear to be a way to do it.

If you use the page often, I would either bookmark it with some type of tea selected (don’t uncheck all of them, or it goes back to having everything selected),

or you can manually edit the URL. Adding “?black=on” for instance, will reload the page with only “Black selected”.

Clicking on one of the tea types(the text, not the checkbox behind it) will deselect all the other tea types. Deselecting all the types would have the same result as selecting all of them, so there wouldn’t really be a point in that.

Ah, that worked. Thank you.

kk Thank you Cameron :D. Great ideas. I’ll bookmark my favorite companies with the type of tea I’m looking for right now.

I’m glad there’s a workaround, but I fully agree that there should be a “deselect all” option. Or the “select all” option should be a toggle.

For the “Suggest a flavor” and “Suggest an ingredient” to actually add new flavors and ingredients to the database. As far as I can tell those suggestion e-mails are worthless, so the option to send them in may as well be removed until the suggestions are actually going to be added in at least a (somewhat) reasonable manner. According to my e-mail history I made submissions back in January of 2018 and they were never added as ingredient and flavor options. It’s been nearly a full year now…

Just thought of a really easy improvement, which wouldn’t require any programming – add to the FAQ! A “How to do formatting?” is pretty standard in community FAQs, but is missing in the Steepster one.

Maybe also move the link to the top bar, to make it easier to find.

The top teas displayed on the “teas” page should only be shown if there are 10 reviews of it. I see teas there with two or three fake reviews from accounts that have only reviewed that one tea. Either that or at least one of the reviews must come from an account older than 6 months.

On the right hand side where you can select the type of tea. There should be a deselect all button. It is slightly annoying to have to click all teas one by one that you don’t want to see.

How about an area to compare a tea’s taste to another tea’s taste, if it’s reminding you of something in particular… kind of like the flavor tags, but for linking to other teas on steepster.

How about some anti-spam software? Or any sort of communication with the members? Or not just letting this amazing place just go to waste because of spam? You still have a group of people willing to chip in to help save this unique place. It’s not too late. But if nothing is done, it probably will be too late soon.

Bump. The spam problem has seriously gotten out of control and needs to be fixed urgently.

Arby said

This would be such an easy fix, too. Require email verification for new accounts and certain keywords in posts or replies are automatically flagged as spam.
