I think this idea is worth consideration, what do you think? 🤔 🙂

Hello there!
The main purpose of user profiles is to make discovering user's content easier. I've found a way to improve the process a bit.
1. Content discovery
Let's take a look on my profile and especially on the filtering options:

Problem: It's quite a long list that grows with every new app or a content type. I find it confusing as during my time here I've posted only a topic and some posts.
I don't think I'm able to post anything in the documentation, release notes, providers, guides, IPS Blog etc. But I'm still able to filter my results by those options [basically to get no results note].
Solution: The idea is to hide all the empty-result-filters. Thanks to this we exactly know what type of content certain user posted, and save our time on scanning the long list.

2. Reputation view
I wanted to check my reputaion activity and this happened:

Problem: The page shows no results. Quite confusing as the sidebar clearly shows that I do have reputation activity. This is because by default the resulsts are filtered by Status updates in which I have no activity. And the list of possible filters is also very long (as stated above).
Solution:  As we have All activity filter in user's content page by default, we should also have All reputation activity filter in user's reputation page. And limiting the possible filters would (as above) make the experience more intuitive and clear.
In my case it would look like this as I have reputation activity in blog entries, blog comments and posts:

Thanks for reading! 🙂

Oh?! We need it baaaack!
💯 🙏 

Hi there, I've had several members reach out and ask why there isn't a "save as draft" feature for topics. It's a good question to be honest.
Some members want to put together a long, thoughtful topic about an anniversary for something coming up, for example, but they have to do it in Google docs. It's a little bit of a hassle. 
It'd be great if members could save drafts before publishing. Thoughts? 

Hey there,
I'd love to see Reactions implemented into private messages. 
My staff and I use Messages to communicate, and some times I would prefer to "like" their comment to acknowledge I've seen their message versus having to reply every time.
Thoughts?

Hey team, wondering...
Is it possible to have someone who just signed up for a subscription taken to a thank you page?
Currently... there doesn't appear to be a method to thank them for their support after they've subscribed. They subscribe and then once it processes, it takes them back to the subscriptions page. 
I'd love to have them immediately sent to a page thanking them. Thoughts? 

I responded in another comment with the below, but figured it deserves its own dedicated topic. 🙂
I would LOOOVE to see a hashtags feature.
Would it be possible to re-purpose / reutilize the Tags feature?
Members could use Tags (as hashtags) in their posts / comments. When you click on the hashtag, it links you to a search page where other members have also used that same hashtag. 
Then, include a way to show Trending hashtags in a widget based off of usage (like the Popular Now or tag cloud widgets). 
I would be super interested in this and I know my members would love it.
There's a lot of #JusticeFor campaigns on social media, and that could be super powerful to tap into on my forum as well. Just food for thought 🙂

Hey team, I had an idea for an application...
I would love for when a member logs in for the first time, or something is launched on your forum, to visually show some cues - literally pointing to important parts of the website.
For example, a member logs in, and most of the screen darkens except for the "Create" button at the top and a message pops up saying "This is how to create a new topic." 
Or "This is where to view your profile" or "This is where to leave a comment," that kind of thing. They can click "Got it" and the mini tutorial disappears. 
It would be useful for current members when rolling out a new feature, too. 
I find that new members are overwhelmed with the amount that can be done. I want to make it very easy and clear for them.
Thoughts?
