Add a way to "cancel" a wish + see one's "to buy" list about wishthis

Hey @maxauvy,

thanks for the suggestion! I think it sounds great!

Instead of having a dashboard of fulfilled wishes, I was thinking rather to keep the wish visible for the person who fulfilled it (this would require cookies). This way, you don't need a wishthis account to undo accidentally fulfilling a wish or changing your mind, or needing the wish details.

But I haven't fully made up my mind yet, so I'm open for more input.

True that, let's keep in mind that not everyone will create an account. That could complicate thing if we think cross-browsers/cross-devices, but we can't have it all 😄

So yeah, cookies + a new badge design (instead of "fulfill this wish --> something like "on your list" + "unfulfill" or anything else, I'm not the best when it comes to wording 😉 ) should totally do the trick!
I'll think of this and post here again if something relevant comes out!

Hey,

also thanks from my side for the work you've put into this project!

I would also appreciate if there would be an option to bring back wishes that are marked fullfilled and just wanted to share my thoughts on how it might be accomplished easily:

• After hitting the "fullfill wish" button the user should see a pop up which informs him that the wish will disapear for other users and asks him to enter his name
• The fullfilled wishes apear on the bottom of the page in a grey color scheme with a Label saying: "Wish fullfiled by: "
• The fullfilled wishes also get a button saying "bring back wish" which makes it awailable again

This would mean everybody could bring the wishes back. Since everybody who has the link can also "delete" wishes from the list by marking them fullfilled I don't see any additional drawbacks from that.
A bonus would be that you can recover the wishes from every device not only from the one which was used to mark the wish fullfilled in the first place. This makes it less confusing for less tech-savvy users.

Thoughts on that? :)

Cheers,
Marcel

So far I would have just left them where there are and just greyed them out, but this is also a good idea.

This is a good point. I guess cookies are not the way to go then.
