Sprunki Delivers a Vibrant and Humorous Musical Experience
Sprunki is a one-of-a-kind music game that allows even the most basic ideas to be transformed into a full musical composition. Sprunki begins in a simple gray area, with players progressively unlocking and discovering a rich, colorful world through sound. The game has an easy drag-and-drop system, allowing players to arrange sound icons in various character columns. Each character produces a separate sound, resulting in dynamic and intriguing layers of music. Sprunki's appeal stems from its adaptable sound combination capabilities, which allow users to freely mix and change rhythms as they like. Even without any musical knowledge, Sprunki offers a…

Suggestion for Summon Users: Access to Premium Blank Apparel
As a creator, I’ve found that having access to high-quality, customizable apparel is key to bringing my designs to life. I use ThreadLAB for premium blank apparel that offers comfort and versatility, which helps showcase my designs perfectly.
It would be great if Summon could integrate or link to platforms like ThreadLAB, where creators can find high-quality clothing foundations. This would help streamline the process for designers looking to turn their digital ideas into physical products.

Monkey testing revealing hidden failures under chaotic usage
Monkey testing is a testing technique that introduces random and unpredictable actions into an application to evaluate how it behaves under abnormal conditions. Instead of following structured test cases, this approach focuses on stressing the system with unexpected inputs, rapid interactions, or unusual sequences to expose hidden defects.
This technique is particularly effective for identifying crashes, memory leaks, race conditions, and unhandled exceptions, especially in applications with complex user interfaces or event-driven behavior. By simulating erratic usage patterns, monkey testing helps uncover stability issues that are difficult to detect through conventional functional testing.
Monkey testing is often automated to generate…

Improve Summon / 360 Link integration where 1-click is enabled and there are multiple holdings
Where the '1-Click' setting is selected in 360 Link, it is only possible for 360 Link to link to one full text target (holding), even when multiple targets are available. It is desirable to enable 1-Click to minimize unnecessary click-throughs for users. It is advantageous to have all activated holdings presented in case any are inaccessible.
We would like to support an enhancement that would allow 1-click linking in 360 Link when there is only one holding, but automatically disable 1-click (show full results page) in cases where there is more than one holding.

Database recommendations based on content type facet
Currently the database recommender is powered by tags (and an algorithm based on the result set?). We would like for the content type facet to also power database recommendations. For example, if the music facet is selected, Naxos is recommended. If the standards facet is selected, Standards Australia is recommended. The new database facet assists with this to a degree, but it is not foolproof.

Increase limit on collected search strings in OBI usage statistics
OBI usage statistics keep track of the 200 - 500 search strings per month performed by users. These are available in the Summon Popular Searches report available in OBI.
It would be useful to have access to a more complete list of search strings each month though, in order to perform analysis such as subjects of interest to users or search trends over time.
This enhancement request proposes to increase the amount of search strings recorded. A preferred options would be to allow institutions to set how many search strings would be recorded per month (ie. ranging from none to…

Sorting results with Web of Science Citation Score
It will be nice to sort search results with the citation score of Web of Science.
It is also desirable as a next best practice to provide a refinement function for limiting the search results to those with WoS citation score.0 votes
