  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/883830.html - Let poll creators make questions that allow a creator-defined number of options to be selected, instead of the current limit-to-one-or-don’t-limit-at-all options. This would ideally include the ability to require a maximum number of answers, a minimum number of answers, or a fixed number of answers (e.g., no more than three, at least three, exactly three).
  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/880379.html -- adding link to a page of the LJ-specific/LJ-accepted HTML to the static header and footer. Useful counter-suggestions in comments include making a unified FAQ with this information that is linked solely on the Post an Entry page, with a mouseover tag indicating why it's of import.
  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/904345.html - add a "now" button/link in the entry editor to update the time listed in the time slot. Supported by people who take longer to compose entries and want the entry time to reflect the time of posting rather than "the time I loaded the 'Update Journal' page."
  • http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/849937.html - Posts which already have a cut tag should not be completely hidden if they are marked as having adult concepts or content; instead, they should be rendered as normal, with the warning page appearing between the cut and the full post. Some concern about potential abuse, but definite agreement that the adult warning pages are inelegant.
It would be really nice if this could be a user-set preference, so that users could have either at-posting or at-loading without one or the other having to click an extra button every time. branchandroot
Maybe a checkbox, which remembers the last set value? Afuna 01:33, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
  • Add a word counter that tracks how many word have been written in a post - and possibly also a character counter for tags and subject line. It would be useful to see if you'll hit a particular word/character limit.
  • Post Revisions similar to Wordpress - http://support.wordpress.com/posts/post-revisions/. Backup the last x revisions, whether auto-saved or otherwise, of a post and have the ability to compare and revert to an earlier version. I would add that I would like to see the first version of a post to be saved as a backup option for comparing and reverting.
Hasn't this already been done? branchandroot
