I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Share via email

    Hello,

    It is not clear to me what the share button does. i am looking for a feature that lets me send an article via email. Is there such an option?

  2. Load all posts from a feed

    This may have ben posted already, so I apologize if it's a repeat. In Google Reader, as you scrolled from new to old posts, it would load older posts infinitely/until you reached the site's very first post. Now in The Old Reader, it only loads the last 30 or so posts, with no option to load more. I'd like for this to happen so I can transfer the items I starred in Reader to Likes here on The Old Reader.

  4. Import from Google using oauth2

    Replace current direct Google import by oauth2 authentication. This will allow us to get user subscriptions without asking for their Google password.

  6. add the ability to e-mail posts

    In google reader there is an "e-mail" button, that will let me send an e-mail with a link to the article to a friend. Right now I only see the "share" button, and since most of my friends and coworkers don't necessarily use The Old Reader, that is of little use to me.

  7. Allow sharing for any page (not just from subscribed RSS feeds)

    Google Reader used to have a function where you could paste in and share any URL, not just posts from feeds you subscribe to. Would love to see that here.

    And a toolbar widget to share any URL would be even better!

  8. Make read feed titles regular font

    First off, thanks for this product. The transition from Google Reader was very smooth for me. I have one little gripe that keeps this from being 100% perfect - in the list of items, both read and unread feeds have the same bold font. The only way to tell them apart is a this green marker. This is not easy on the eyes as the name of the feed source is also highlighted in the same green color.

    Is it possible to just change the font of the read feeds to regular and keep it bold for the unread feed?…

  11. Transfer The Vote Count

    When you decline a a request because it's a duplicate, transfer the votes acrued to the surviving Feature Request.

    That would reflect the wishes of the community, and not make those who voted on the duplicate feel their votes got wasted.

    Limit visibility and following. Requiring approval to follow someone, would be great.

  14. "r" keybind to reload when viewing feeds, "u" to hide the stuff under add subscription

    Having to click "All items" to see new items isn't cool.
    The navigation takes up too much space, would be nice to hide it until it's actually needed.

    Сделайте пожалуйста разницу визуально более значимо. Просто бордера слева не очень хватает для комфортного различия.

  18. Allow me to leave off "via @theoldreader" on Twitter shares

    I would understand if The Old Reader was a free service to automatically append the service's name, but since I'm paying for support I would like to leave off the ad from my tweets automatically.

  19. sync read/unread with 3rd party apps (ie Reeder)

    I like to look at my RSS feeds on different platforms and in different places (PC at work, Mac at home, iOS while on the train). This means I log in using different web-browsers and apps depending on my location. I would like to be able to seamlessly continue with the apps I currently own and sync between them so I only ever see "new" items.

  20. Hide feed and folder without unread items

    It would be nice to hide feed and folder without unread items, this will be easier to navigate between all my feeds.
