    Maybe searching, tagging, or filtering of posts?

    Also, ability to bookmark to read later or for future reference could be really handy.

    Ability to edit a post after publishing. Maybe only 10min or so after if you are concerned with people changing it after a conversation has started. I recently titled a post 'Ask:' instead of 'Ask DN:' and just wanted to change that!

    It would be really nice if the RSS feed included links to comments for every post (similar to how reddit does it). Hate having to leave my feed reader to go find the post on the site.

    Maybe even a count of the number of comments a post receives at the time the feed is published?

    A Critique This post-type would be cool to join the addition of "Show DN", "Ask", "Apple", etc.

    Over the past year there has been talk, blame, and mud-slinging around many social networks for designers, primarily Dribbble, about the purpose, comments, and more.

    It would be cool if we could begin to tackle the challenge of providing sound, reliable and helpful feedback here on DN. A simple "Critique" post-type and badge would let DN users know that someone is open to hearing feedback!

    Shouldn't you get a karma point if your post gets a comment? I'd argue that creating conversation is more valuable to the community than an upvote! Just a thought.

    The ability to click on a color earned in a user profile that then shows a list of users who have said color. Great way to find out who was at a meetup or who was part of something that earned them a color. This essentially splits DN into groups which might not be a good thing. Who knows.

    I'm not sure on which site I saw this, but on a site that I posted to once, they had a super neat auto-generated Title field, which, if no title is initially provided, took the tag from the URL provided is entered into the Title field. It was super handy, and I'd like to see it here on DN.

    There is a huge influx of users who keep sending me to things like "100 hotel icons" which should read "Please buy my set of 100 hotel icons I created, here's the link"

    Can we PLEASE include a checkbox that asks if you are promoting yourself, or linking to something for sale? Then we could add a css class around each of these post and allow users to see when we are being fed junk. We're getting a lot of new users self promoting themselves, and not with interesting articles or news. They are promoting something for sale. This really irks me, and already I've started to cut down on my reading of DN, because often when I click it a link it's a "Top 10 type of post"

    I really love the site, lets keep it news, and fix or clear up that people should not be submitting some icons they have for sale or their latest weather app they want us to buy…

  • Marcus ZanonaMarcus Zanona, almost 9 years ago (edited almost 9 years ago )

    Currently, one big problem in Designer news is the amount of duplicate content being posted. However, this is in no way the user's fault, but instead, an UX flaw that urges users to search for similar content manually before posting anything.

    Sometimes, a user just wants to share something he found interesting and not spend more than 30 seconds inside Designer News just to make sure his content is not already available.

    The current structure has more serious implications such as the amount of comments that sometimes may feel a little "hostile" saying things like

    "Come on this again?"

    "Another link on that subject"

    "This has been posted here before already"

    which in no way contribute to a healthy discussion, but only point fingers blaming the user who just wanted to share nice content with fellow designers.

    I suggest that Designer News create an auto-fill option, like http://stackoverflow.com does when a user is typing a new question, as it searches for keywords, urls, inside that question an populate a suggestions section pointing to possible similar results.

    This way, the user who is posting content, can quickly perceive his content has already been shared and can instead contribute to that previously posted question by up-voting or commenting.

    Designer news is a hub for UX and UI super stars, you guys know more than anyone that things like these happen and it is in no way the users fault but instead it is a flaw in the way the information is presented and induct its users to perform actions that sometimes might not lead to correct or expected results.

    Hopefully you guys can take a look on this and make this community a more friendly place to be.

    Link to my DN question that sparked this feature request (https://news.layervault.com/stories/38537-multiposts-on-dn).

    Basically, when people are in the process of adding a new stuff, they see (potentially) similar questions so they don't risk posting the same thing as someone else. Stack Overflow does this very well.

    I was confused with the invitation creation process.

    I typed in a person's email and was given the link for the invite URL, but it was a clickable link so, I thought y'all were giving me access to an otherwise redundant account.

    I emailed the URL to my friend so hopefully he got the invite and can join.

    But please fix that whole process. Don't make the invite URL show up as clickable link when I generate an invite. Tell me to copy and paste the URL into an email if that's how it works because that was really confusing.

  • charles riccardicharles riccardi, almost 10 years ago

    So, I just opened up the designer news page and was like WOOAAHHHH. Everything has changed. I am totally all for iteration, but I think this one may have taken a step back. Here is some feedback.

    1. It's actually harder to read now, with the font change. Gill sans is a tough one at small sizes, I think.

    2. With the images now included in the container (instead of laying outside of it), my eye now has to jump from right to left as I scan down the page. It was really nice to have the ability to just follow the icons on the left, then scan right when I wanted to see what the content actually was.

    3. Also, this may have been there before, but there is a lot of text under each headline. I think the headlines might benefit from a bit more white space, or the removal of some of the secondary text.

    Just thoughts from another designer. This is an awesome service, and I appreciate all the awesome work that has gone into it.

    Thanks!

    I've been a good boy and used search to prevent a duplicate post. But adding a comment in a forgotten topic is pointless because nobody will ever see it.

    A list of all topics where you have been active in would be nice too. And perhaps it could be a temporary replacement for the notifications. This way we can manually check if something new came up in discussions we have participated in.

    Ability to minimise comment thread? Wading and scrolling through all the responses from an initial comment, just to get to the second comment, can be tiresome.

    When posting to DN, it would be really useful to be able to add both the link to an external link and a short description, and that description should be available on the RSS feeds list. When reading feeds from DN on my RSS reader, I find it frustrating that most links don't have any description other than the title (not so meaningful most of the times). Unless I am willing to open them each time, I might miss interesting articles.

    example

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/802078/Screenshot.png

    The code I used for the test in the screenshot is pretty simple. You can try it out using this snippet: (paste and run in your developer tools console at the submit page, and then fill out the form!)

    function checkExistingResultCount(event) { var searchString = event.target.value, target = $(event.target), log = $('#log-' + event.target.id), log = log.length ? log : target.after('<div id="log-' + event.target.id + '"></div>').next(), type = target.is('#StoryTitle') ? 'post\'s title' : 'posted URL', searchableString = searchString.replace(/ /g, "+").replace("http://",""), query = "https://news.layervault.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&query=" + searchableString + "&commit=Search", printResultCount = function(html) { var resultString = $(html).find('.SearchResults').text(), resultCount = resultString ? Number(resultString.match(/\d+/)[0]) : 0; log.html("<p>We've found " + resultCount + " result" + (resultCount === 1 ? "" : "s") + " for " + searchString + " (check the <a href='" + query + "'>search page</a>).</p>") }; $.get(query, printResultCount); } $('#StoryTitle, #StoryUrl').on('blur', checkExistingResultCount);

    Did you drop the white background for the DN content div? Please put it back!

    I appreciate that “good design is as little design as possible” but that subtle framing of the content provided a way of determining the level of nesting for comments. Without the frame as a reference point users must scan the whole page to determine whether a comment is original or a response.

    It would be really nice if links didn't open in a new tab. In addition to not being typical behavior, it's very annoying on Mobile Safari because I have a limited number of tabs.

    Hey guys, pasting some code symbols into comment boxes does screwy things with the comments. I've tried the "less than" and "greater than" symbols and it cuts off anything following.

    Hopefully an API will come out soon, and maybe even a native iOS App. But in the meantime, a homescreen icon would be great!

    Does the invite button work at the moment ? Tried in Safari and FF to no avail.

    It is difficult to see the hierarchy of comments and replies at the moment with the subtle indent. Perhaps a vertical line for every level of reply?

    Being able to click on Karma in my profile to see where I got my karma from (e.g. MOTD, posts) would be cool. As would being able to click Posts to see the posts I've made and Comments to see the comments I've made.

    Having a check mark next to the posts I've upvoted instead of the up icon would be nice. Being able to click the type icons (e.g. "Show", the apple, "Ask", the podium with a browser on it) to see more posts of that type would be interesting as well.

    I've had a few other ideas, but can't think of them right now. I'll let you know when I think of them.

    I can NOT figure out what half the icons on the side of the articles mean. It's become rather distracting trying to figure it all out.

    Otherwise, I am in love with this product!

    Method for revisiting comment threads.

    Yesterday I commented on a post. Today I realized I do not have an easy way to go back to that post to see what others have said.

    The text colors are really light, so light I find myself squinting to read what some things are saying. Also, not having to log-in every day would be nice (Remember me).

    When you start going back into the archive, the titles overlap the numbers beside them (because of the 3 digits).

    Just noticed that the invite functionality generates an invite token from the email address, but doesn't actually send the invite. I think it would be nice if it just went ahead and sent the invite automatically seeing as you already have the email.

    I also like seeing the latest comments at the top, not sure if this is just me tho? Right now this feels especially awkward as the input for adding new comments is at the top of the page, while the latest comments are on the bottom.

    It's a small thing but seeing as this is a 'Designer' site I'd like to see crisp icons in the top bar: http://cl.ly/image/0Y2B1J142m0W. I understand they're SVG, but I'd gladly take crisp, pixel perfect icons over the few KB SVG saves…

    Excited and looking forward to contributing to this community!

    Some sort of system that lets you know when there are new replys to your comment would be great! I've been having a hard time trying to follow any conversations that are happening.

    Maybe it's just me but I think the comments are too narrow and/or spaced out (ex, an entire new line for the reply link). There's only 30 comments here and I did quite a bit of scrolling. This will become mayhem with 100+ comments.

    As for responsive design.. make this site open source and I'll do it for you. :) I've been doing a lot of responsive stuff lately so I love doing it.

    A minor tweak I'd like to see is increasing the indent width of nested comments. Right now it's difficult to navigate comment trees.

    I'd like the ability to remove an upvote I've given (in case it was accidental, or I realize it was a duplicate post or what have you), and also to see a list of all the posts I've upvoted (perhaps this could live in the profile that many people have requested already).

    Maybe comment upvoting as well, so a thread with many comments will have the most relevant or insightful comments first.

    Not a big concern while it's still growing, but a bit further down the line search would be nice (though it's hard to do well), and maybe filtering by type of posts (badges) or time.

    Remember login, retina iOS icon and perhaps apple-mobile-web-app-capable meta tag (full screen), that is all. :)

    Don't overdo it, it's simplicity is what makes it great.
