  1. It would be nice if we could select more than one feed to move to a folder at a time.

    If we could highlight a "bunch" of our rss feed titles, to be moved to a folder, and perhaps right click-copy-paste to the new folder.

  3. Auto log off

    Add a configuration option to auto log off users that close the browser tab. This is needed to prevent google account hacking by opening The old reader before the password protected goggle accounts that do not log in ayuthomatically.. .

  4. Automatically pull URL from clipboard when adding a feed

    I would find it convenient if, after clicking to add a feed, the contents of my clipboard (most likely a URL) would automatically get pasted into the field.

  5. keyboard shortcuts after share

    After sharing a post, I press 'n' my usual shortcut to move to the next post, but it starts typing n in the shared comment box. The keyboard shortcut should have priority. Those that want to comment, should click on the comment box.

  6. Create several favorites folder

    I am putting interesting posts (not feeds) into my favorites folder.

    Due to the reason that I have feeds of different topics, I would like to arrange the entries in the favorites folder by my personal order.

    For example:

    favorites folder 1 only contains posts from "computer feeds"
    and
    favorites folder 2 only contains posts from "car feeds"
    etc.

    Question (suggestion of a new feature):

    Is it possible to create more than one favorites folder or list ?

  7. Show folders names in bold if there are any unread items

    Same behaviour like the Google Reader.
    If there are any unread items in that folder display the name in a bold typeface to stand out more.

  10. Keyboard shortcut to open next folder with unread items

    Many people (including myself) navigates through folders and reads them. I really would like to see a keyboard shotcut that takes me to the next folder that contains unread items (like Shift + n, but skips read folders) and then automatically opens it (Shift + o). That would save me many key strokes.

  13. MAKE IT MORE OBVIOUS you don't support old browsers like IE 8!!!!

    I just spent all this time setting up an account and importing my Google Reader data---only to find the Old Reader is unusable because my browser is outdated. Grrrr! Very annoying! You can do better than that. I have visited other reader websites that told me up front what they did and didn't support.

  14. Mark item as read when opening it via keyboard shortcut

    If I open an item in a new tab/window, I don't want to also have to mark it as read. If I open it, it's obviously for reading. The keyboard shortcuts make it easy enough to mark something as unread if a user wants to open something without marking it as read, but the default should assume that "opening" == "reading".

  16. Keyboard-controlled interface for subscription management

    TheOldReader is not completely designed following the WAI WCAG 2.0 and WAI-ARIA for rich internet applications. Please consider including keyboard-controlled interface, and not mouse-only, with descriptive labels, for having the subscription management also accessible to blind users: adding folders, moving feeds to folders, deleting feeds/folders, searching feeds to add. It is important do not consider it as a low-priority.

  18. Menu option to move a feed into another category

    When you have hundreds of feeds, drag and drop isn't really a sensible option to organise feeds, especially when you imported them from Google - Can you please have a menu option like Reader did to pop a feed into a different category?

  20. Leave folders expanded/collapsed as they are left

    Save the expanded/collapsed state of each folder regardless of browser or resolution.

    The suggestion "Collapse folders as the default view" may be officially "Completed" but it is still lacking. Mobile is not the only resolution would benefit from this.

    As a user commented in that suggestion, the folder state should remain just as the user left it.

    As another commented, it is annoying to collapse them all down first.

    Do you prefer to have your folders collapsed by default?
