Place multiple stories at once
I realize this is probably a little beyond a feature request and I'm sure many others have had this idea, but I think this would be a wonderful feature for Blox TCMS and a great time-saver for users.
What if we could place all stories on a page at once?
I apologize if this is already a feature I'm not aware of, but If there were an additional setting that could tie a story package (element types with the same file reference) to an asset's "Display Priority," then another command could be added within the Blox menu, such as "Place All Stories," and Blox could then place all stories on a page at once by matching each story package with the display priority in the asset. Maybe there could be another Blox TCMS menu item for "Priority"?
I realize that print editions are a dying breed, but with all the staff cuts and hiring freezes, I think a feature that would allow someone to create a template snippet with multiple story packages and place stories simultaneously would be great. Page designers would be able to get a huge portion of that work done in a fraction of the time and go on and do another task while the stories were placing.
Anyway, it's just a thought I had. No need for replies.
Thanks for listening.

Feature request: Edit subscription status and/or start date
It would be very helpful to be able to edit a subscription's start date, status or both. I used to be able to change the status to Disabled to temporarily remove access from a user, but that feature no longer works.
We have several "snowbirds" who want to pay in advance of their requested start date for their online subscriptions. I like to process those orders through Blox so that confirmation emails are automatically sent and their orders are entered into the system ready to go. The problem with doing this now is that the person receives immediate access to the site, and the only way to temporarily remove that access is by changing the expiration date to an expired date. If I could change the status to Disabled or change the start date to their requested date, the problem would be solved.

Location tab - adding maps
I have loved the location tab that allows users to quickly add a locator map to a story by plugging in the latitude and longitude. Until recently the base map was, I believe, Open Street Map, which added a locator icon to the map that allowed readers to quickly zoom to or see the location generally.
The Google Maps base map does not add a locator icon - unless I am missing a setting or something. I have tried it several times. Is there any plans, or the ability for users, to add an icon? Providing a map that only shows a general location does not make the map very useful.
Thank you in advance for the consideration.

We have a special Black Friday E-edition that we can't get to process and appear. Do we have access to a way to force this to process?

Peggy,
You should open a customer support ticket when you have issues, the community forum is not the place to look for support.
support.townnews.com would be where you submit your ticket with all your details, including your domain and the publication you are trying to upload.
thanks,

I am having trouble with posting an e-edition.
I am having trouble with an e-edition. I have sent the files twice and nothing is showing up on the back end. Can anyone help with this? I use to be able to push the job manually but I can't find that option anymore. Help?

Un-escaped ampersands in media URLs in google_newsstand feed
BLOX seems to have a bug where ampersands in media URLs are not escaped in the altf=google_newsstand version of the feed. The altf=verve_full version has them escaped properly with "&" but not the google_newsstand version. This causes it to fail XML validation and not get parsed by feed readers.
TownNews: I see you have fixed this issue in previous software releases for other feed versions (https://townnews.com/releases/software_releases/flex-templates-software-release---tues-sept-25th-2-00-pm-cdt/article_2abe4da6-bda8-11e8-a444-7f76286bc38c.html and https://townnews.com/releases/software_releases/blox-template-release---oct-7-2014---oct-9-2014/article_c46fb2fc-4d70-11e4-93ab-afa78a5be736.html) but it still needs to be fixed for google_news feeds.

Seeking advice for a workflow solution
We're looking at making move to a more streamlined content management and publishing system. I'm not sure if I'm using the correct terminology there. We're happy with Town News. But currently, we spend a lot of time at our organization discussing story ideas, assigning them, editing, etc. We're looking for a tool (Have I missed this as part of Town News' offerings?) where a writer can be assigned a story/or choose from a selection of topics, receive a deadline, submit the story, allow an editor to be assigned and then, ultimately, schedule a post to BLOX. Or some similar process. Is anyone familiar with a tool that will help us manage/automate the publishing workflow?

Chrome login
Using Google Chrome, blox requires I re-authenticate the browser with every login instead of recognizing this is a device/browser I have logged in from before and am going to log in from regularly. Can you please patch this bug?

Feature Request: Form Submission -> Form Views Delete Button
It would be nice to have a Delete button on the Form Viewer in order to mark a form submission for 'deletion'

Feature Request: Hard delete for file attachments on form submissions
People (and spammers) can upload the oddest things when file attachments are allowed on a form submission.
Since these file attachments can be viewed by anonymous users on the internet it would be nice to have a hard delete method available in the Form Submissions area of bloxCMS.
