Last month, we asked you what new features you'd like to see in ScribeFire. Since then, we have been investigating the feasibility of the enhancements you requested, and we would like to respond to your feedback.

For the following features, we've started working on them and they should be present in one of the next releases: (You can click on the linked words to comment on the feature or view its progress.)

• Synchronize settings between computers
• Ability to delete multiple notes
• Support for Thunderbird
• Automatically check the "Modify Timestamp" box when the timestamp is changed
• Ability to organize list of blogs

Some of the features you asked for have since been completed or were already there, but you just didn't know it:

• Word count (Right click, choose View > Word count)
• Live Preview (ala Windows Live Writer); added in version 2.3
• Image uploading for Blogger; has been in ScribeFire for a while now; if it's not working for you, file a bug report
• Keyboard shortcuts; they were broken for a few versions but have since been fixed
• A better publishing workflow was added in version 2.3
• Spellchecking; ScribeFire has always used Firefox's spellchecker; if it's not working for you, file a bug report
• Image titles; just select the image, right click, and choose "Edit Properties..."

There were a few requests that we've decided not to take any action on, mostly due to time constraints:

• Make ScribeFire an independent application
• Send comments from ScribeFire
• Automatic posting to multiple blogs. This one has come up before, and our current response is still to just click "Keep Content" after it posts to the first blog, and then change blogs and publish again. We may reconsider this feature in the future.
• Facebook Notes integration
• Multi-user support (multiple users in one Firefox profile). This is handled well enough by Firefox's mulit-profile support.

For most of the other features that were requested, we haven't started working on them, but we've put them on our To-Do list and will get to them eventually:

• Color code drafts vs. published entries in the Entries list
• Title templates for "Blog This"
• Gallery2 integration
• Clipmarks integration
• Button for code
• ScribeFire in the sidebar
• Customize WYSIWYG editor font
• Better Flickr search
• Better support for blog-specific features (like in LiveJournal, MySpace, etc.)
• Image thumbnail creation
• Image padding
• Better table support
• Google Video support
• Better Joomla support

We appreciate that you took the time to give us your feedback; in the future, you can request a new feature or report a bug at any time by filling out this form.

Do you know more than one language? Why not help us translate ScribeFire into as many languages as possible?

There are about 400 words/phrases that make up a full translation, but you don't have to translate all of them yourself. Multiple translators can work on a translation, and any phrases you don't translate will still appear in English.

If you want to help out, just sign up at Babelzilla, select a language, and start translating!

I've created a project at Google Code for ScribeFire. This will allow you to view the latest source at any time, download nightly builds (once I start creating them), and most importantly, read and file tickets (bug reports and feature requests). If you have a problem with ScribeFire, and it isn't already in a ticket, go ahead and create a new one.

I've already entered a ticket for every issue that has been raised in the discussion forum at Mozilla Addons, and I will be entering tickets for issues in our own support forum and comment threads at ScribeFire.com.
