Hi Anthony. Yep, this is a new feature our tech team just put into place. Now you can see the number of times your idea has been viewed from your "Ideas Submitted" list. This specifically records when your idea is viewed from it's main ideation page, but not when someone simply expands a submission on Participate.

Another new feature is the ability to tell if you flagged your idea for archiving from your "Ideas Submitted" table. You can change whether your idea is archived or not by Editing it and checking the box at the bottom of the page.

Hopefully these new features make everyone very happy :)

@NitroClad - what you said is how I take it. When you submit an idea, you are asked whether you want to archive it afterwards. Since people didn't remember if they picked this option for their idea, Q made it easier to find out. It shouldn't be archived until the 30 days is up.

As a side note, when I submitted an idea, I had no clue that archived meant 'saved on Q after going live' as I took it as archive meaning 'save for later and not let it go live'.

Thanks Debra. I need to get better at finding stuff like that...

NitroClad - I have been running back and forth from TV to COMPUTER - while watching TOP CHEF (Bravo)...happened to see this from Nathan and thought it would help! I have an idea that I did not check to archive and was happy to see this information.
