MOZ Site Crawl - Ignore functionality Request
-
I now understand that the ignore option found in the MOZ Site Crawl tool will permanently remove the item from ever showing up in our Issues again. We desire to use the issues list as kind of like a To-Do checklist with the ultimate goal to have no issues found and would like to "Temporarily Remove" an issue to see if it is shows back up in future crawls. If we properly fix the issue it shouldn't show back up.
However, based on the current Ignore function, if we ignore the issue it will never show back up, even if the issue is still a problem.
At the same time, the issue could be a known issue that the end user doesn't want to ever show back up and they desire to never have it show again. In this case it might be nice to maintain the current "Permanently Ignore" option.
Use the following imgur to see a mockup of my idea for your review.

Hi folks!
Jo from the Moz help team here, you can now choose to mark issues as Fixed!
When you mark issues as "Fixed" we'll check back when your campaign next updates (or you force a recrawl) to see if it persists.

Samantha,
Excellent. I appreciate the consideration. Hopefully this is something that others will also find value from.
NOTE: my mock-up would only be one approach. There are other methods that might be more user friendly. -
Hi there,
Thanks so much for writing in and for providing us with such great feedback! The crawler is very new, and we're definitely always seeking ways to improve it so suggestions like yours really help. I'll pass on this feedback to our development team so we can consider it as something we may want to implement in the future:).
Let us know if we can help with anything else!
NOTE: Things have changed since my last response - you can also now mark issues as 'Fixed' within the Site Crawl, so you can track your progress as you go along:). If you mark an issue as 'Fixed', on the next crawl it will still appear if we recognise that it hasn't actually been fixed. My colleague Jo left a helpful screencast in a comment below - https://screencast.com/t/sqyiphpjEcr

Moz's New Video Ads on YouTube
I've enjoyed Moz's new video ads and want to share them with colleagues, however am unable to find the vids anywhere other than when they're delivered before a video plays on YouTube. Are they available on demand? If anyone is unfamiliar with the videos I speak of, they are new ads for Moz products like Keyword Explorer, Mozbar, and MozCon. Thanks in advance!

Does seo moz toolbar work in safari? Can I avoid using Chrome or firefox?
I am using a Mac and use Safari for web. I am not very familiar with Google Chrome or Firefox. I started my trial with SEOMoz Pro and want to use it (loved it) but do not want to adapt myself to Google Chrome or Firefox - thus my hesitation. What limitations do I have with SEOMoz Pro in safari - e.g. Moz add-on in the toolbar? What would I be missing if I continue using Safari? I would much appreciate an honest and complete answer so that I can decide whether to use Google Chrome of Firefox. Thank you

Including "Volume" on the Tracked Keywords Overview Page in Moz Pro
I've searched Q&A but I did not see where this question has been asked before, so hopefully I'm not repeating a question that has already been asked (and answered). For the past couple of years I have been using Conductor Searchlight as our SEO toolset, however recently I have made the decision to switch to Moz Pro. My question is regarding the Tracked Keywords Overview Page. In the current display, the Overview Page shows Keyword, Location, Universal Results, Rank, URL and Optimize. Has there every been any consideration to also include Volume? One of the nice features of CS Keyword Overview page was that I was able to view the rank of all my keywords, and the volume of each, at the same time. We currently track 275 keywords. Some keywords are obviously more important than others. The CS Overview Page allowed me to quickly scan through the list of keywords, see the ones that were within striking distance of page one (by rank), and since I could also see the volume at the same time, it also allowed me to prioritize which keyword to focus on. If two keywords were both ranked "11", but one had triple of volume of the other, it makes sense to focus on the one with the greater volume. From Moz's Tracked Keywords Overview Page I can drill down and get the "Volume" information that I'm looking for (and lots of other really good information), but I have to do it for each individual keyword. Moz Pro is a great SEO tool and the information available is amazing. The switch from CS has been an easy one, but CS did have some features that I liked, and being able to see both rank and volume on the Overview Page was one them. Any information, suggestions, or work-arounds regarding my question is appreciated. Regards Scott

Can Moz change this on the Subscriptions dashboard?
Hey Moz, Bit of a random bug bear of mine, each month I log in to download the latest invoice receipt to hand over to accounts for processing etc. After I click the billing and subscriptions link from the profile drop down menu, I am presented with the subscriptions page. The payment history panel placed located on the right all ways shows my first 3 invoices. As this is a snippet in time, would it not be more beneficial from a UX perspective to show the most recent 3 invoices. That way I can get the info I require that tiny bit quicker rather than be presented with invoices that are 3 years old. I know it is a tiny thing but wondered i it could be accommodated. 🙂 Many thanks Tim ypjDGDk
