Edit class time for replica lesson
I'd like to be able to edit the class time of a replica class right from clicking on the Plans.
Currently I have to go into Classes and change the replica to View/Edit, then go back and change the meeting time, then go back to Classes and change that class back over to a replica. I still want all of the lesson/homework to be a replica, while simply changing the meeting time.

Full-screen View for Projecting on Smartboards and Promethean Boards
Create a Full-screen View option to allow teachers to project their lesson plans, homework, learning targets, etc. in a readable size for students to view from their desks. This image would work well on Smartboards and Promethean Boards. Then, students could easily read over the lesson plans, homework, or learning targets as they come into the classroom. In fact, I could have my DOL (Daily Oral Language) up for them to work on since DOL is the first item on my lesson plan. Then, I could quickly scroll down through the homework and learning targets. Currently, I have to zoom…

Click Today on weekend, go to next Monday
Currently, when I click "Today" on a Sunday in the weekly plan view, I am brought to the previous week's lessons, whereas I would much prefer to be shown the upcoming week. Could you please fix this? Thank you!

Saving shared plans/ units
I would like to be able to 'claim' or 'appropriate' a lesson or unit plan on which another teacher and I have been collaborating. Currently, because the other teacher started it and invited me, I cannot save the lesson plans or even make a unit with the information we have been sharing in the 'plans' section.'
2 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! To learn more, visit our knowledge base at https://planbook.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/1947022-the-copy-screen
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…

Color Picker - Show currently selected
I wish I could tell what colors I have already used for my classes, maybe that have a check mark on them or something so I don't reuse the colors for another class.
2 votesThe new color selector in Planbook allows you to select a color from one of our sixty preset color options, via a full color grid, or by entering a color code (Hex, RGB or HSL)! This new color selector will also show you which color is currently selected for your item.

Default calendar jump
When setting up holidays for the new year, have calendar default so that if I pick the start date, the end date calendar pops up in the same month.
For example, when I am entering dates right now, the calendar automatically shows June 2018. If I jump ahead and pick the start date of December 24 (for start of Christmas break), when I go to set the end date, it still defaults to June 2018 (which is impossible, and kinda annoying).2 votes -

New sharing link each school year
Have the sharing option renew each year. This way when changing teaching partners you can still keep your lessons private and decide each year who you want to give access to for that year.
2 votesGood news, we’ve added a new method for sharing plans between teachers! You can now enter individual teacher emails, select specific classes or lesson banks, and set view or edit rules for each lesson section.

Keep Notes displayed
Hi. I have discovered that Notes simply disappear once their assigned date is past. This is very annoying. Why can't all notes be displayed unless I filter them, rather than the other way around? I want the list of notes to function as prompts, i.e. "sticky notes" that I want to keep at the forefront of my thinking while planning, and I want them to persist until I choose to dismiss them. (Not the same category as To Do tasks which are time framed.) Thanks

don't skip two weeks ahead when I click the arrow button to the succeeding week.
Whenever my account gets logged out and I try to click towards the following week, it prompts me to log in. However, after getting logged in, I am brought to the original page where I started. If I clicked the arrow to move forward to the following week, it skips two weeks ahead counting the initial click as a command.

Allow teachers to set the font style and size on the lesson screen during input
I need the default font size to be bigger as I am typing. Ideally, it would be the style and size the display will be. Even wearing my contacts and my readers, the default size 10 Arial is too small. I have to make it bigger every time. I have been using Planbook since 2015, and this is my biggest pet peeve!

Keep full To Do List visible when I view Notes
I have a long list of To-Dos, and when I choose to view my Notes below, they jump up over the To-Do list and cover it so I can't see all of them; instead I have to scroll down the very small To-Do list. I'd like to see my full To-Do list at all times, otherwise I forget what is there.
2 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.

To Do and Notes should generate a symbol
A symbol at the marked day or class for a to-do list or note.
The idea is that you see that there is a note or to-do, even if the list itself if being clicked away.2 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!

fix the "email link" option
When I emailed my direct student link to myself, it sent the one with my email address in the link and that did not work for opening the page. When I copied the shorter link directly from the "share" settings page, it worked.

Standards not Printing
printing off my lesson plans for the week and I notice that I can't get my state standards to print. We HAVE to have them on our lesson plans. They show that they are there but do not print out. We have a GAPPS review coming on Wednesday and I NEED those to be on my plans. Thanks!
1 votePrinting standards has been fixed, AND we have added the ability to print ONLY Standard IDs. On the Print Options page, check “Standard IDs Only” to not have the descriptions printed.
