make donation followup page's default facetweet include donation url, not followup url

a followup page ([next_page_slug]/'After donating, what page should they land on next?') to a donation page inserts the follow-up page's url in its facetweet instead of the donation page's url -- could there be a setting for followup pages to refer to the referring donation form? or just make that the default?

Can auto-responder preview be fixed?

Previewing (layout_autoresponse.html) always loads a site's home page for us -- can this be fixed?

Official response from Adriel Hampton considering

Ron, have you seen the new "report a problem" link in the control panel footer? Reporting your issue there will put it directly in the hands of our engineers for review (along with giving them additional bug troubleshooting info from the page and browser).

Make action-based tagging reversible

When a user signs a petition (or completes another action), we can tag him/her (as, say, petition_signer), but if s/he unsigns that petition (or otherwise undo the action), the tag (petition_signer) remains. Since the "on action" tags exist solely to track actions, shouldn't those tags be tied to the users' status for that action? (eg, when a user unsigns a petition, his/her petition_signer tag should zap itself.)

Custom sorting "for"

when listing child pages, what's the syntax for sorting by date?  the default date sort seems to be based on child page modification date and adding a sort (for page in page.children sort:published_at) doesn't override the default sort. anyone have any luck with this?

Official response from Drew Cross

While things like blog posts and calendar events will always be displayed in chronological order, subpages will generally be listed with the most recently modified near the top of the 'Active pages' list in the control panel. However, if these subpages are included in a top nav, the default order is based on published date, with the most recently published being at the top. In these situation, the "Sub nav pages" tab will allow you to click and drag the pages in to the order you want.

Settings for required fields

We get lots of request from clients to make certain fields required. It would be great if most/all text fields would either accept a 'required' parameter at the template level or have a 'required' checkbox in that form's settings.

We understand. philosphically, why more fields are not currently required, but not all of our clients do.

thanks, jerimee. we discovered it’s possible to manually add the employer / position fields to a particular donation form’s template if you don’t want to require this info on all donation forms….

Embed.ly doesn't render https content

Placing a youtube vide w/embed.ly snippet: renders great w/ http, doesn't render w/https.  The video is for a donation page--we need https.  Sure we can embed the video in the template, but that's no fun.  Can embed.ly be configured to supprt https?

this is something that could be handled at the theme layer — captions could be created from the image’s alt tag with a little js and css. google turns up a few tutorials: http://tinyurl.com/75oyucz

is there any visual distinction between the pins for past and future events on a map that shows past and future events?

Add a setting to "close" a petition

Presenting past petitions (alliteration, anyone?) is a great way for an org to demonstrate efficacy, but, without a template edit, there's no way to display a petition without also allowing users to sign it. A "closed" checkbox would be very handy.
