Ever thought about a simple "post ideas" section for the dashboard?
-
I try to remember the topics I want to write about. Sometimes it’s on a sticky note in my pocket. Sometimes a little notebook I try to carry in my purse. But I was thinking the other day how nice it would be to have a small section on the dashboard that bloggers can have an “ideas” section for their posts. Little check boxes beside each idea so once we write about them we can check them off and the idea will fall off and be deleted. Just like we can move the comments box, views box, etc around on the dashboard we could have a box for the ideas and place it where ever the blogger so chooses.
Would this be possible as an addition to the dashboard?

Would you not be able to just start a post and save it as a draft to be looked at later on and then developed, not with standing I still thinks its a good idea that you have.

Sounds like you need something like a visible ‘to do’ list. Until such time as they put something like that on the dashboard (but don’t hold your breath), how about making a separate page for your ideas. Apart from that, I agree with johnpipemarine – you can start a draft post with each of your ideas and just hold on to them til you’re ready to continue writing them. If you go to your dashboard, to ‘all posts’ and click on ‘draft’ once you’re on that page, you can see all the posts that need finishing and publishing!
I’ve got way too many draft posts! :)

I have many “draft” posts and I don’t need any more clutter on my dashboard than we have now. I also have private test blogs I can develop ideas for future posts in, and we can all register as many free blogs as we need. Therefore, I have no need for such a feature.

I would really like a small area on the dashboard to FREE ASSOCIATE….just jot down stuff. I understand draft posting as a tool but would love an IDEA BOARD that is visible
