Filterable search results in Idea Lab
When I do a search here in the Idea Lab, I would love to be able to filter or sort the results. At bare minimum, it would be great to sort by most recent or most votes. But it would be nice to filter to just "Implemented," for example.
Thanks!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your idea in the Idea Lab. We genuinely value your input and creativity. After reviewing engagement levels across all submitted ideas, we’ve decided to archive this particular idea. This will help us keep the Idea Lab organized and focused on the ideas that are receiving the most activity and feedback from our community.
That said, your idea is important to us! It’s possible a similar idea with higher engagement already exists — a quick search might help you find and support it. If you’d like to resubmit this idea with clearer or more specific wording, it could also help others find and vote for it more easily.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions, feedback, or concerns. We truly appreciate your participation and look forward to hearing more of your thoughts in the future.
Thank you again,

Hmm. Still seems to miss the mark a bit. For example, it would be nice to sort by date, which I can't seem to do. Also, the links "Hot ideas," "Top," etc. aren't there after I type in my key words. Do I "pre-filter" and then type in what I'm looking for (which seems backwards)? Maybe I'm just not using this feature how it's intended.
Thanks for the feedback,

Hi Tom,
You can actually do this already. It's not that intuitive, but when you click on "I suggest you ...", and it takes you to the page to enter an idea (or search), underneath the text box are 5 links:
- Hot ideas
- Top
- New
- Status
- My feedback.
If you click on the Status link, it will give you options of Planned, Implemented, Under Consideration, Not Planned. It won't pick up ideas that are currently in "No Status" (ones that are either new or that we haven't determined where they should end up yet).Hope that helps!
