Access to "liked" posts thru API
I'm using gReader Android app. Since closure of google reader I'm looking for replacement which is supported by my app and has decent web interface. Yes, TOR has most readable and usable interface in my opinion, and what is most important - lightweight when compared to "creply floud". And it works well with gReader, except that, citing gReader's author: "API doesn't support marking as starred (liked) yet". So I politely ask - is this will be ever supported?

Ablity to hide article attachments or set not to display them inline
On some feeds, there are inline images in news body, but also same images are attached to news item as attachment. TOR displays those images in news body, as it should, but also displays same image as inline attachment to article. In result, I can see something that looks like duplicate images in articles.

Put a "mark all as read" button at the bottom of the list of posts.
If there are a lot of long posts it takes a long time to scroll all the way back to the top on Android.

Push notifications
It would be awesome if old reader would send push notifications to mobile phone so you would get feed news as soon as they happen (or at least as soon as reader checks them).
Or maybe add some sort of API for it. After quick glance, I can see it can only retrieve data by polling.

Undo last action
One of the features that Google Reader was lacking is undoing previous action. I think that every software should have such option. I've had situations where I'd want to get back in time just for a split second. Marking all articles as read might have you lose some hair. Dragging and dropping a feed to wrong folder can make you wonder "where did that go". I am aware that undoing complicated action might not be a trivial task, but it surely will be satisfying feeling for an end user when he realizes that he doesn't have to spend half an…

Space bar should work like in Google Reder
Space is the ultimate navigation tool in Google Reader. It works like the N key but when the post is not fully visible, it scrolls down instead of jumping to the next post. And then at the end of the feed it jumps directly to ne next feed.
This there things allow me to navigate and read my news very fast and with only one key.

Links in Firefox open in Background tabs
When I control-click a link in a post it opens in a new tab, but it takes me to that tab. Then I have to make my way back to TOR. Instead, have the link open in a tab in the background. This happens in Chrome but not in FF for some reason.

Extend support for Atom Feeds (HTML in items)
Atom feeds can contain xhtml directly within their summary elements, via <summary type="xhtml">. TOR currently strips any tags when displaying these items and outputs only the text content.
Example: "Dashboard Feeds" generated by GitLab.

Remove Facebook
I added support/allowed access to my facebook account, but now I want to remove all linkage to that. All I see is the option to remove it from my profile. I want, however, to remove all traces of facebook from my reader.

make logging in easier and possible with the keyboard only (without mouse click).
It would be great if I could store a link to theoldreader.com that already includes the email address I wanted to use for logging in. For example Google reader supported links like reader.google.com/?email=my@address.com, in which case the email address was automatically filled in and the password field focused.
Also a similar effect could be achieved if at least there was a keyboard shortcut or direct link to the login page (eliminating the need to grab the mouse and click after entering the url).1 vote -

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?

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.
