I always view the News Feed filtered to My Topics. Starting yesterday, I'm seeing photo album posts in my News Feed for topics that are not in my favorites list. Why am I now seeing posts for topics that I'm not interested in? That is the point of filtering.

Hi Tim,

Can we get an option to turn off the "sells an item on your wishlist" notifications?
I have 1000+ items on my wishlist and get bombarded with multiple of those notifications every day.

Thank you in advance.

Jasper Breur » Feature requests
A notification system for the marketplace section seems like a useful addition, especially for kits offered for sale by other mates. It could be useful to receive a notification when a rare or hard to find kit you're after comes up for sale.

Paint purchase and storage. I can't find a way to specify purchase and/or storage of paint, the way I do for kits and other tools. It would be helpful, so I hope it is possible to include it.

So, I moved recently and am in the process of reinstalling my man cave/modelling desk. Apparently, some tools, paints and figures have been lost during the move (yeah, it really sucks), but I can't say what exactly is missing.
Could there be a function where one would simply fill a checkbox for every item in the inventory that has been verified as still existing and, at the end, just show the things that haven't got checked? (some function simulating an inventory)
Or would you have any other idea to get the same result?

The "like" button is getting slower and slower. This has been noticeable for some weeks on both iOS and desktop browsers. Sometimes the "like" doesn't take effect. I just noted it took 4 seconds on desktop. Because it takes so long sometimes I click a second time and then unlike, and then a third time to like again.

Not sure anyone else is experiencing this?

Hello there. Ever since joining a year ago, I've been getting "Bad Gateway 502" errors occasionally, maybe once every 3-4 weeks. It happens on my phone as well as my computer. It goes away after a few hours. Do you know why this is happening? Thanks for looking into this, and keep up the great work. Love the site.

Is there a feature in the news feed to hide or mute user posts temporarily, or throttle how many posts are seen from a user per day? For example, a lot of people use the site for inventory and project management, but this can spam the news feed when they add all of their items at once. This inevitably happens because we all have stuff to add and it's easier to do it all at once. But recently I was following a few projects on the news feed and they all got pushed out of the way by one user who was managing their project inventory and adding a lot, probably over 30 projects. No offense to the user but I was unhappy to see all the recent projects disappear from the feed.

Or is there a way to filter the news feed to track only ongoing projects, not completed ones? This is the interesting thing about Scalemates, its both for individuals to manage their work, but also for other people to view the work of others, so balancing them is an unusual problem. Thanks.

This is a just some shower thoughts (well actually I'm in the bathroom sitting on the throne) but maybe we could have some sort of barcode scanner? If you upload picture while accessing scalemates (maybe using your phone or other devices with camera) it can scan the barcode and auto recognize the kit or something like that.

Tim, I know this was one that we discussed a few years back but would be great if you can take another look at adding an option to scan bar codes.

The option to scan the code or a quick stash check would be helpful. Thanks

Hi,
When viewing a single kit there are "Related products" listed, eg:

Thomas Espe » Feature requests
Hi, Tim.

I don't know if this has been proposed/requested before, but would it be possible to implement a feature that would send you a notification if someone on the site puts something that is on your wishlist up for trading?
This could possibly be a feature that individual users could choose to enable or not (like the other notification settings in the preferences).

I know I can see which members of scalemates are selling if I go into the wishlist and look at the items, but it would be nice to get a notification if someone puts an item up for sale sometime after I have put it on my wishlist. Especially if no one has it up for sale at the time the item was put on the wishlist.

David » Feature requests

The "Swap" label is written as "sw" for trade items

Boris B » Feature requests
Another feature that would make the Trade section more useful/active : would it be possible to get a notification when an item on our wish list becomes available, from a shop maybe, but even more so from another person on SM ?
People use the wish list more or less loosely, so maybe this could be an option in the notification settings, in case someone does not want to receive an automated message. Or maybe it could be a box to tick when adding an item to the wish list. It could say "Notify me when this item becomes available."

I'd like to propose a sort of "backlog" view for projects.
It would be cool to have another mode (aside of "Status", "A-Z" etc.) to set them in sequential order (like the photos in albums), so I can plan what to start next.
Another idea that comes to my mind is project/album timeline view for projects, so I could see mine (or others) progress.

One more thing - when searching for kits, could we get another dropdown section on the right to filter items in the stash only?

David M » Feature requests
I notice that in a listing view, e.g. my stash, or a search results page, a magazine always says it's associated with exactly one project, no matter how many of my projects it might actually be associated with (including 0). For example, I have scalemates.com/press/issue.php?id=10124 in my Stash once, associated with two projects, but in the listing view it says "Stash 1x| Projects 1x".

While comparing on Scalemates which webstores sell the modelling products I'm looking for, one thing I'm missing is the books they have. If you watch a book page on Scalemates, the shop section is missing, though many of the modelling shops on Scalemates offer them. Would it be complicated to make this work like on the other product pages?

charli181 » Feature requests
Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but my thought here is when adding a kit, there is an area where you can add the colours/paints required by the kit, thus if someone else is ordering the kit, they can also order the paints at the same time.

Hi, seems like I was hit by a bug: a kit I added to wishlist, moved to on order then to stash now sits on the on order page while showing Stash x1. Notifications for the moves did show on my wall.

Please add an "[All]" checkbox at the top of filter lists that are longer than, say, 10. When there are over 100 topics or brands (or over 1000) and I want to see all except a few, it would be much quicker enabling all with one click and then uncheck the ones I'm not interested in than have to individually enable dozens or hundreds of checkboxes.

Starbase101 » Feature requests
In the "Add missing data" section of SCM Contributor Page maybe add a stand-out reminder/request to search the database for your item before adding it? There are a lot of incorrect duplicate entries in the database, probably because people simply don't check first to see if their item already exists before they proceed to add it. Having such a reminder/request could help cut down on the quantity of duplicate items added.

James C » Feature requests
Would it be possible to automatically subscribe to a topic, when a kit is added to the stash, and/or have a check box on the stash page to add all currently owned kits as favorite topics etc?

And would also be great if we could filter the news feed to exclude projects that are sill just "Ideas" (unstarted) or that don't have any accompanying albums etc.

For me personally, for the news feed, I would just prefer to only see new or updated work in progress albums, kit reviews and comments etc. Everything else is just clutter and borderline SPAM.

Is it possible to search or filter results on the STL data file flag?

Jonas » Feature requests
Hi Tim

With more and more people (like me) getting a good quality 3D resin printer, printing your own accessories becomes an option. I've even designed a few on my own (and a lot of tools). A few manufacturers (like Germania Figuren) already offer 3D printable STL files. These are mentioned here as "Digital:3D data file", but I could not find the option to "search" for these STL files specific. Apparently, it's just a checkbox somewhere under accessories, but they do not appear to be a "searchable" feature? Maybe I'm wrong?

Although it should not be the intention to turn SCM into another "Thingiverse", it might be a great feature to have the option of adding a specific category of " 3D printable (STL) Files" to share and download. These could be linked to a specific kit (for which they are designed). The scale would be only a "recommended scale" because it's easy to rescale them in your printer software. The "manufacturer" would be something like a " user-designed item". The possibility of adding the file to be downloaded would be obvious 🙂

A big issue might be "licensing". There probably should be indications of what you can or cannot do with the files. Downloading an STL and then start selling printed versions for profit, might not be what the designer had in mind. Thingiverse "solves" this issue with predetermined sets of "IP protection". Also to take into consideration.

I know, maybe this is a feature request that goes way beyond what SCM is supposed to do, but still... I was wondering what your opinion is.

Thx!

I'm re-sorting my magazines this weedend because there isn't enough space. Doing so I checked if all the issues are in my stash. Doing so I discoverd 2 problems.
1: I had to search for nearly half an hour to find out how to add an new issue to an existing magazine series. Here it would help to add an link "Add Issue to existing Magazine Series" in the Contribtor Area. (similar to paints)
2: Off the about 100 issues of the Flugzeug Classic series I own are just obout 20 on Scalemates, and that due to the difficulties in finding the "add new issue" mostly as books. So what is the best way to fix this? Just adding the magazine issue and mark as double?
