Further to my email below...
It has come to my attention that you only get limited number of "votes" per month (when voting on other people's suggestions). I believe the limit is 10 votes per month. This is to stop people simply voting for everything. This limit is not something I can control, unfortunately. It's part of the third-party software that powers the feature-request-and-voting system.
So be careful that you don't use up all your monthly allocation of votes!
Cheers,
Mark.

Subject: New in HarmonySite: Suggest new features, and vote on the suggestions of others
Dear HarmonySite administrator,
It's finally here: A tool where you can suggest new features you'd like to see in HarmonySite - viewable by all other HarmonySite administrators. People can vote on your suggestions, and you can vote on theirs.
To find it, look on your main Admin Dashboard page or your "Help" page (the "?" icon in the top-right corner). On either of those pages, look for the little "smiley face" icon on the right-hand edge of the page, towards the bottom. It looks like this...
We have collected MANY suggestions over the years. The ones that have not already been implemented have now been transcribed into this new system (thanks Caitlin!). There are 82 suggestions in there currently. This is now the "official" place where HarmonySite suggestions are listed and considered (the previous list was only visible to HarmonySite staff).
Suggestions are listed in no particular order.
PLEASE SUGGEST!
It would be great if all of you could offer any ideas you have for ways that HarmonySite can be improved. That includes the software, our service, our pricing model, everything!
Before suggesting new features, first...
- Be sure the feature doesn't already exist in HarmonySite
- Search the existing suggestions to see if someone has already suggested it. If they have, you can vote on it to improve its chances of getting implemented.
I saw that a few of you have offered suggestions via the new Facebook Users Group. To those of you that made those suggestions: Please now suggest them again in this new facility.
PLEASE VOTE!
Please vote for all the suggestions written by others that you think would make your life easier. The number of votes that each suggestion receives will be a huge influencing factor in our decision about which suggestions to implement.
Please do NOT simply vote for every suggestion. That will make it more difficult for us to determine what ideas you think are worthwhile.
NOTES
- This feature is only available to "Webmaster" admins logged into HarmonySite. It is not available to your members or to the general public.
- If you enter your email address with your suggestion, you will be notified if the status of your suggestion ever changes (e.g. if the suggestion ever gets implemented). The email address will only be visible to HarmonySite staff (not to other HarmonySite administrators).
- Your suggestions will have your name on them - whatever name you choose to enter. If you don't want your real name shown, then enter a made-up name.
I expect a lot of new suggestions to appear over the next week or two. So please come back and revisit this system in a couple of weeks to vote on all the new suggestions. Perhaps visit once a month...
Enjoy!
