The Ideation Status section is currently auto-organized alphabetically.  I’d prefer to be able to set the order to match the order that ideas go through our pipeline. See attached.

Didn’t attach for some reason. Here it is.

Hi @mstone, thanks for sharing this idea with us :)

To understand the use case: what’s the goal of ordering the ideation status? What would be the expected outcome?

The goal is to make it more clear for end-users how an idea flows through our process. Ie… New → Open → In Progress → Complete

 

Currently, this would be listed on the right side of the page like so:

  • Complete
  • In Progress
  • New
  • Open

when I’d prefer it to be in the correct order:

  • New
  • Open
  • In Progress
  • Complete

Agree - this is a little confusing for users when the “pipeline” is out of order

I completely agree with this idea. You can now only choose between not having an order, or adding numbered prefixes which feels quite forced and is certainly not very UI/UX friendly.

I suspect that this feature is a somewhat more latent need, and therefore perhaps receives not that many votes. But I that such an option would make the ideation feature a lot more intuitive for all users.

Hi all! Exciting news! We have just delivered this idea.

You can now drag-and-drop ideation statuses as per your requirements to reflect in the destination. Let us know what you think or if you have more suggestions around this.
