Add border to editors
Just loaded Planbook today and now have the new form. It has no solid boarder and not having a boundary and contrast with the web page behind is driving me crazy. Please make it look like the old one!

Unify the student view
Unify the student view so that students by default see the plans for every class they’re in (without having to toggle between teachers), at least for an overview.

Archive Lesson Banks
With so many classes over the past few years, I have a huge collection of courses that I am not teaching right now. If we could archive the courses that are listed in the bank, it would make it a bit easier to read through the list of banked material.
3 votesWe recommend using the bank name as a simple way to track (and sort) lesson banks. We hope this helps, any questions please let us know at support@planbook.com

Entering lessons by subject
I would like to be able to plan one subject for the whole week and then have the program add it to the lesson plan instead of finding the subject each day to update the plan. I teach the same subject at a variety of times so I am always searching for the subject.
3 votesThe List View provides a simple way to add or update your lessons for one subject at a time. We hope this helps, any questions please let us know at support@planbook.com

offer individualized "live" sharing options for personal accounts (not district-wide)
I need to collaborate / share my plans with a long-term sub. However, I am the only teacher at my school who uses Planbook.com.
Currently, I can only share a link with a student key for a set time period. I would like for my students to only be able to view the current week, but I need the ability for a long-term sub to be able to view farther in advance, through a link (not PDF), so he/she can view lessons in their current, up-to-date state as I add them.
3 votesYou can now define multiple views, to allow different groups (students / substitutes / etc) to each have custom view settings as defined by you.

Unit Materials,Standards and Instructional Strategies
It would be great if we could set up unit materials, lesson instruction and objectives from the beginning of setting up the unit. If it can be like the current standards with a box to generate the same info for all the lessons under that unit. As an ELL teacher much of my information is shared for multiple classes and materials don't change. It's too tedious to copy/paste for each lesson. I need to have it just in case a sub is used for my class.
3 votesYou can now add lesson sections to your units! Hope that helps, any questions just let us know.

Print Lesson Button
Your print lesson button in the lesson bank hasn't been working for a while. It still works in the plans though? I've sent multiple messages, but haven't heard back.

Allow units to be assigned to TEACHER, and not a class/year.
Create a TEACHER lesson bank, organized by units. Allow teachers to assign the lesson they create to a unit, and be able to access that unit/lesson bank from ANY class ANY year.
3 votesYou can now create Lesson Banks, with units and lessons, to store curriculum outside of your class schedule.
Lesson Linking, when combined with Lesson Banks, provides teachers and schools with a powerful curriculum management tool. Teachers can collaborate on the development of curriculum (classes, units, lessons), store the curriculum in lesson banks, and set permissions for who can view or edit the banks.
Teachers can then either COPY or LINK the lesson banks into their plans. COPY will allow teachers to create a new set of lessons that are solely for their individual use. LINK will establish a link to the source lesson, such that any changes made will automatically show in both the source and the target lessons of the link.

Show one lesson at a time
When I use minus or plus buttons in lessons bank, all lessons are shown or hidden together. It would be interesting to hide or show only one lesson at a time.

Move login button to left side of screen
When I open my browser and go to planbook.com, the login button if often hidden on the right hand side of the window. Even the horizontal scroll bar will not reveal the button. I have to resize the window in order to get to the login button.
3 votesWe have redesigned our Welcome Page. Please let us know if you still have difficulties accessing the Login button. Thanks!

Update current day highlighting automatically
Whenever I leave planbook logged in overnight, the highlighted portion on the current day remains on the previous day unless I logout and log back in again. It would be great if it would automatically update at a certain time--midnight would make the most sense.

Make Co-teaching simplified!!
My coteacher and I found it extremely difficult and time consuming to make sure that we could both view AND edit all of our classes. Coteaching is very common now and this should not be so difficult!!!! We finally figured it out but it was NOT easy!
We want to both be able to to edit math (and every other subject). The replica/view/etc process was exhausting.3 votesGood news, we have added Lesson Linking to Planbook! Rather than copying lessons from a lesson bank or between classes, you can now create a LINK to the source lesson. This means that any changes you make will automatically show in ALL places where the lesson in linked!

Display notes with the month to which they are assigned
Since we have the option to assign a date range to a Note, I would like to see that note during the selected date range and have it no longer show after that date range. Or at least give us the option to choose when to show the note (with the date range or indefinitely).

Notes having its own page
I would love a page where it's notes like post its where I can post to that and then delete and check off things as I go along. I know the side line feature exist but it would be nice to have a page dedicated to notes that you wouldn't want to delete right away.
3 votesTo allow our teachers more flexibility in the creation and management of Notes and To Do items, we have moved these to their own page in Planbook!
And to allow teachers to quickly view upcoming items, we have added a Reminders panel, to show events, classwork, notes and todos that are due in the next 7 days.
To view the Reminders panel, click the "Reminders" icon in the upper right corner of your Plans page.

Allow equal size Events
Allow us to set Events and calendar items as equal size blocks to match the equal size lessons. As it is events and calendar items push equal-size lessons far down on the screen. Please allow us to set these events and calendar items (especially if they have long notes) to equal-size blocks to match our equal-size lessons to keep everything lined up on our screens without large gaps.

Add lesson title checkbox to lesson action - copy
If I paste "All" it copies everything, including the lesson title. If I select a few items to copy instead of "All" and copy the lesson, it only copies the lesson text, not the title. I think the lesson title should be tied to the lesson so that if you select to copy just the lesson, that automatically includes the title.
3 votesThe lesson title is now available as an option in the lesson action - copy function!

Hide Google events separately
I used Google a lot. I love that I can sync my Google Calendar to my Planbook. Unfortunately, I discovered that when I desselect "Events" on my Planbook View button it hides ALL events, even the Planbook events. When I am planning for a sub I don't want the sub to see all my Google Events for several reasons. It would be great if Planbook could create a feature that would allow for users to separately deselect Google Events and Planbook Events.
