When I set up engagement badges a couple months back, only the Icon/Emoji showed next to the name of the person posting in a group/forum. When hovered over, the "title" would show. The "title" did show (and still does) when viewing the Profile of a member. Recently, that has changed and now the titles are showing on the badges next to the poster's name. This looks really messy and cluttered. I have attached images of what it used to look like and what it looks like now. Before it looked "clean" and members could still hover over the icon to see the title. I would like to request that we bring that back. Thanks so much! 😊

In all of our forums, an old post will jump to the top if someone comments on it - even if the post is from a long time ago. I would like the ability to turn this off, so that more relevant, but less "active" posts have the chance to be seen. To be clear, I'm not talking about pinning posts. I would like to be able to have the chronology of a forum stay consistent, and not factor commenting into the equation. This is our general discussion forum. The top post, made by Ryan, was posted Nov. 12, while the bottom post, by me, was posted Dec. 1. The orange arrow denotes a comment made on Ryan's post after Dec 1, which moved his whole post about mine, thus affecting the chronology. The purple arrow is indicating the "new" tag in our other forums. This tag pops up when someone makes a new post (which is good) but it also pops up when someone comments on a previous post (which is confusing). Is it possible to adjust the forum settings to that: a) comments on posts do not affect the chronology b) comments are assigned a different color "new" tag; or specified with a "new comment" tag; or not indicated at all Original: https://help.simplero.com/forum/posts/75387-allow-forum-posts-to-be-displayed

I've just been introduced to Mighty Networks and I think it would be a fabulous alternative to Facebook for my course and membership groups. EDIT: Actually, I just discovered Circle.so which is better because it’s only focused on community engagement. Are there any plans for Simplero to include a simple, friendly community based space where members can engage like this? Forums have not had any interaction in my membership group so I’ve gone to FB but I would love to have it all in Simplero. Thanks! 💕

When posting something or replying to a comment, the "Cancel" button is bigger (therefore, easier to click) than the send icon. Do we really need a cancel button at all? I just checked FB and LinkedIn and neither of them have a cancel option when making a post or a comment 😊

When a video has bookmarks in it, they are shown just below the video (and above any lesson content) in the Classic lesson layout. This makes sense because the video bookmarks are directly related to the video itself. In the New Membership site, the lesson content is shown before any video bookmarks, pushing the bookmarks potentially many screens below the video that they relate to. We need to be able to have both video bookmarks and longer sections of video bookmarks blend well together. Please, can we have the video bookmarks back to be located just below the video itself, before the content, so that the lesson layout is more similar between the classic and new membership site experiences. That would keep video bookmarks as the relevant content they are, directly next to the video.

Members / course students sometimes (often?) put comments under the lessons that they may want to revisit later. For example, I often ask them to comment below a Lesson with their response to a homework assignment, so that there's cross-pollination between students. However, it's hard for them to find their own comments again. In the Profile drop-down menu (top right), under "Your profile" and above "Your account" perhaps there can be "Your posts" which brings them to the Member Profile that shows all their posts and comments 🙏🏼

Can we please have better control over how list/product subscriptions are displayed and offered. The current set up is super confusing to my customers. I have 70+ products that never get emails (marketing or notifications) sent out for the specific products. My customers see that they are subscribed or not subscribed to things we never send emails about, and they either get overwhelmed or think they are missing out on emails. Also, apparently, it looks like they can reactive subscription to a list that I have suspended for them, which they shouldn't have access to anymore.

Love the new course display that shows a summary of the amount of content. But the "Course Includes" card shows different data for logged in and logged out users, which is a problem if it's trying to be used as a sales page. I mean, would you rather pay $$ for 77 lessons or 14 lessons? I'm told this is because some of my modules are dripped, and although dripped lessons count, dripped modules don't count. Which doesn't make any sense to me. I'm not sure why dripped modules seem to have a lot of incomplete features, like this other one https://simplero.canny.io/feature-requests/p/customize-display-for-dripped-modules

Hi :) We often have multiple videoes or audiofiles in the same lesson (in courses). This is because it makes it easier for our participants select how much of the course they want to watch at the same time and to find and rewatch a specific parts of the course. Our experience is that in most cases there are more benefits in having small videos of 20-40 minutes than one long video thas is 2-4 hours long. But we also have participants that likes to listen to the video/audiofiles when driving or doing the dishes. In this case it would be awesome if there was a button on the lesson to let the participant choose if they want to autoplay the next video (all our videos are added as additional content in the lesson). With such a button those that want to watch it all at once don't have to stop what they are doing, scroll to the next video, press the button to play the next video. Instead theu would just hit play on the first video, and when it is over the page would jump to the next video and start it automatically (same for audiofiles). This would be an awesome feature. Teachable has a feature like this (see attached image) Thanks in advance Siif PS. this is an old feature request from the former feature request forum. But because we keep getting asked about this from our participants I am reposting here :)

When embedded PDF Resources are included in a course lesson, they open as pop-ups when clicked in the new membership site layout. It could still be valuable to have a PDF shown as expanded, with the PDF content visible right inside the lesson without covering the rest of the lesson content. PDF Resources have been working like that for a long time in the old membership site lesson layout, so some courses may be set up to depend on readers actually being able to SEE the PDF content right away when viewing the lessons. Could this possibly be solved by relocating the Resources block to the main content column of the course layout? Maybe as a configurable option?
