Enable list student numbers to be updated -- in bulk via an uploaded report -- OR an LTI with enrolment systems

Currently the student number on lists has to be updated manually and individually. This is timeconsuming and tedious. It would be wonderful if the student numbers on lists could be updated in bulk via an uploaded report, the same way hierarchy nod...

★ Make the 'Unpublished changes!' warning bar float as you scroll down a list

Unfortunately our users tend to miss the 'Unpublished changes!' yellow warning bar. If it floated as you scrolled down the list (like the 'Back to top' button and Table of Contents/Filters do), it would be more visible and obvious to users. Also c...

Add heading levels to the PDF export of a reading list

The PDF export of a reading list does not contain heading levels which would enable screen reader users to navigate to different sections using quick navigation keys. This makes it extremely time-consuming to try locate or access the readings for ...

Address a focus or scrolling issue when using keyboard navigation

Using the arrow and other quick navigation keys with a screen reader such as JAWS for Windows to navigate a reading list which is organised by weeks or topics. The content seems to auto-scroll and unexpectedly change screen reader focus. When I re...

New resource type: book portions; combine two tabs for journal articles when bookmarking

We have feedback from an academic: I have spent more than 1 hour to try to add a book portion (NOT a whole chapter) and still could not add it. So, we would like to see an option to add book portion (as a new resource type) with multiple page rang...

Ability to 'cut & paste' sections of a reading list into another reading list. I work on multiple programmes where my subject is one of several within a module, each of which has its own, specific reading list associated. With the current set-up, this means that my texts need to be painstakingly added to each. functionality that enables you to lift whole sections (or a link to all/part of another reading list) would save huge amounts of time each year.

Filter Reviews by presence/absence of note for library

Hej! Our TA subscription is currently set up to send automatic review requests when new lists are published. We want also, however, to regulate the workload of our information specialist by being able to prioritise for review those lists that have...

Undo button

When a section/resource/paragraph has been deleted, it would be useful to have the option to bring it back, even if this is available for say, 30 seconds; could be particularly useful for new list editors.

Dark theme

Dark background option would make it more comfortable to work on Talis for people with various vision conditions or just preference. The large stark white area is very dazzling.

Short URLs for sharing reading lists

At the moment Talis RL links are very long strings of alphanumerics. A shortened version to share more elegantly would look very nice. E.g. rl.talis.com/Institution/PSYC101 rather than https://rl.talis.com/3/institution/lists/AB01234C-0A2B-3C4D-DD...
