    On your Feature Requests page, when I click the “In Progress” filter, it shows no items. Is this a bug or are no new features under development currently? Or, am I missing something?

    Hi Helloyoga,

    the features request is just a system to send feedback. We take that feedback and we do what we think it’s best for the project. Given that it isn’t very much used by our members, we don’t update it as frequently as well. Considering we have almost 1k members, votes are really few.

    We have currently 3 full time developers working on GD. Many new features are being developed right now.

    A new theme, custom post type without address, better CSV import with edit listings option, listings export, category import/export and several other things.

    We don’t provide a list of the project milestones, because they can create excessive expectations and put useless pressure on us. We experienced that on the past and we are not going down that path again.

    Until we are not few days from delivery, we prefer not to announce what’s next.

    Consider also that a lot of good ideas are also shared in the forum or asked by potential customers via email and we also have our own ideas.

    All this to say that the requests page isn’t the bible.

    Thank you

    Fair enough.

    So, perhaps remove the “In Progress” filter, if that is possible, so that people don’t get the wrong impression that nothing is going on.

    I’ve just added few things. 🙂

    Cool.

    I’d say that part of the reason why this feature request system has a relatively low level of engagement is that it’s not so obvious or easy to find. And, you guys seldom mention it in your social media updates or other communications.

    I think it’s a good system, though, and glad you have it.
