As your friendly neighborhood Admin Team, the gang here at TVTropes HQ is always working to improve the site.
Many of those improvements begin with suggestions posted right here, on the Community Wishlist. Is there a feature you really want on TVTropes? Post it.
Is there something we could be doing better? We want to know. Do you think we look fat in these pants? We were totally afraid of that. See a bug? Report it.
Important things to know:
- We're all about that content-creation life! The top contenders for our attention are ideas that'll create more content, like the video uploading feature, or speed up launching new pages. On the flip side, design or layout tweaks won't be our top priority.
- Help us dig through the goldmine of old wishlist items! If you have an old request gathering dust or spot one you're totally on board with, give it a bump and a like. There's a treasure trove of 6+ years' worth of ideas just waiting to be rediscovered. Items without enough love may not make the cut and will be closed.
- Was your wishlist item locked up without an explanation? It was most likely disapproved or just too big of a task versus the benefit it would ultimately have. Time is precious, and we want to focus on updates with the biggest bang for the buck. Don't be discouraged though! We appreciate every idea and we're always listening.
I just added a sort for messages while fixing the PM block still showing notifiers issue per this request
so I’ll just add this functionality while I’m at it.
EDIT: The new inbox mockup
This wishlist query has been fulfilled. Check the Changelog
or the Wiki Talk Changelog Thread
for a full list of recent updates.
Please remember to like and bump any new or old wishlist queries you think deserve attention so i know what the community needs me to work on moving forward.
Now Monitoring Query Bugs and Query Wishlist

Stop me if you've heard this one before:
You're checking out your Message Inbox and find that it's bloated with old messages that you had resolved or were notifications for you having uploaded a Video Example you had made long ago. You mouse your cursor over to the red "X" to delete that message from your Inbox in order to clean up more space in it, only for the page to automatically reset and bring you to the top of the screen: causing you to lose your place in the long list again, meaning that you are forced with no other option than to slowly scroll your way back down again trying to remember where you just were at.
This is less-than-ideal for most of us that can't afford to spend several minutes looking through after deleting a single message that we often tend to avoid going into that Inbox with the purpose of deleting older messages you no longer need. The only way I can think of that this can be resolved is to incorporate a checkbox system located on the left side of the Inbox Message that can allow us Tropers to carefully select the Messages we want to delete on a page one at a time and then press a "Delete All Selected" option in order to clear them out of our Inbox without too much hassle. It would make traveling into our Inbox seem less of an annoyance that needs enduring and let us get back to doing the things we love most: Categorizing and Calling out the Colorful Clichés that Crop up in our Cartoons, Cinematics, and Chronology!
