A form for creating new ideas, includes: title, description, and category. The form has a built-in mechanism to present similar ideas while typing, to reduce similar/duplicate ideas.

Comments form + all previous forms

Add tags from a predetermined list, editable by site admin.

This is a mechanism to determine the level of activity around ideas, using an algorithm which weighs the number of comments, number of votes, and the time passed since the last activity. The “Worth checking out” component helps the analysts to determine which ideas are more successful.

A visitor on the website can manage a list of preferred ideas, and subscribe to notifications from the website. In addition, visitors can receive updates on the latest activity on the user’s own ideas.

For each activity on the website (adding an idea, commenting, voting) the user earns points. The number of points for each action is configurable.
