Which new features do you want the most?
When searching for teas, there’s an option to select all types but I would like a deselect all or clear selection button incase I’m looking for a particular type from a place.
I am still new to this site but these are my observations so far. I haven’t read through this whole thread so some (or all) of these ideas may have been posted before.
1. A mobile app for cell phones/mobile devices.
2. There are some reviews of tea accessories on this site, but a separate area to review and rate tea accessories would be nice.
3. A separate area for retailers/tea companies to post coupons or discounts. I find it hard to scroll through all of the threads to see who is offering a deal.
4. A way for steepster to make recommendations for you based on the tea you like. Many book retailer websites do this. (ie. People who like (the tea you just said you liked/bought), also liked (blank).
5. An interactive map so that you can see where your fellow steepsters are. Similar to the map of the tea shops you already have. This could be optional for those who don’t want there location shown.
A way to search my replies in discussions would be nice. (I have seen and used this on other forums.) It really comes in handy when trying to find old threads that interested me, and also to be able to acknowledge any replies to my responses in discussions initiated by others.
I’d like to see how many views/replies a topic has. As of now you don’t know if anyone has even viewed your topic.
Woohoo #1000 :P
Add a select none feature to tea searches! I currently have to unclick all of them to only select one type of tea.
Actually, if you just click the type (black, oolong, etc) that will uncheck all of the others. It’s totally confusing and not ideal, you’re not the first person to be confused by it :)
Times showing as posted 3 hours ago when you just posted it hurts when it comes to checking for new responses..
One thing that I would like to see is a sorted search function. If you search for a particular type of tea or perhaps “decaf” the results come in at random. Sorting by score (as happens when you look for a particular tea brand) would be helpful.
Maybe someone already made the same remark, but I’d like the reply and taste-note-box to be larger. Due to its size I often loose track and make lots of misstakes in spelling or by repeating words, so that I have to edit once or more even a few times…
Other than that I really lover this site!
You can adjust it, in the bottom right corner of the typing window. Even in this reply box I am typing in right now. Indicated by the six little dots formed into a triangle. Hover over it and your cursor should turn into a a little pull tab :)
Well how about that. I’ve been irritated by this for two year and just now find this out. I mean thanks!
Definitely keen for an iPhone app, guys.
A way to index/tag your own tasting notes, for further updates (without making an entirely new one)
