Below you can find an overview of the various projects that we're working on for OpenPlans.
NOTE: Work in development is no longer tracked on this page, favor of the Project Tracker on the Trac Wiki. User requests and "wish list" ideas should still be posted here.
User Requests:
- Discussion thread deletion -- in case something sensitive is posted.
- Account deletion (People are afraid of being Googled, losing control of their online privacy)
- Obfuscation of email addresses in listen archives
- Announcement lists that track project membership (in addition to discussion list)
- Search within a project
- Personal blogging
- Clearer error messages regarding permission (more nuance, reasons)
- Clearer liveEdit UI (it should be more self-evident)
- Redo TaskTracker (LOTS of usability complaints)
- Better marketing/identity (What is OpenPlans? Why should I join?) <-- A job for the Community Director?
- EMBED stuff in wiki pages/blog posts (YouTube videos especially, and possibly Google Analytics?)
- Ability to edit URLs (when you rename a project)
- "Save" button on the top of the wiki screen
- Central repository for Mailing list subscriptions
- Export project data
- Invite to project from member profile
- Sync OpenPlans projects with external email program (constant contact)
- Ability to add multiple emails to the same account (and pull data/invites from one to the other)
- Sub-projects / project relationships
- subdomain URLs for projects; e.g., http://uws.nycstreets.org/
- Simpler/easier to use mailing lists
- Auto-save / wiki edit protection ('are you sure you want to leave this page?')
- Edit a wiki "anonymously" (you can edit open groups without signing in)
- Ability to make projects "related" or "parent-child." Essentially, figure out how to make two or more projects related
Idea board / wish list:
- Blank Slates
Hide unused featurelets & unedited content from everyone except owner. (ticket 1907) - Wiki Notifications
Email notification when watched wiki pages are edited. Watch/unwatch individual pages, or all pages in a project.
-
Commenting and Annotation
Inline and page-wide commenting on any page in openplans.
-
Viral improvements to Actions+

-
Login improvements
scrape for hCard data, ask for photo up front - Wiki
