Re: New look

Wow!!

What a change.  This is brilliant.  songs/artists easy to find.  Professional looking.  Great job Chordie :-)

Re: New look

I was looking up songs last night,, 50% of what I  looked up had almost everything removed. Honestly I got so fed up I went to Ultimate Guitar to find what I was looking for.  Aside from the forum I am not happy at all with the changes. songs missing words and chord or tab, Post missing edit  key,   honestly, if the songs you want show up with just 2 lines what good is it?  Some songs have it all some don't, I looked through a whole artist, almost all songs have 2 lines and some silly statement about chordie being a whatever server.    this time around UG is better for finding stuff.   As I said, NOT THRILLED AT ALL.

Hey Scott!  It's good to hear honest feedback, so thanks for that.  As I think you know, the songs found "on Chordie" are not actually located "on Chordie's servers" - so it's entirely possible that the original location of the songs that you're finding simply do not have all the information in them (and therefore, all the information won't be here to view on Chordie OR on the website that the information is being pulled from).  It's kind of a tricky thing, and no one at Chordie can make the other website's information appear if it's not there. 

Can you provide some examples so we can look into it further?  It may simply be that those pages Chordie's getting the info from need to be removed, and replaced with information obtained from different, better, more complete locations instead.  It's possible it could be a coding issue on Chordie though.  Either way, it's difficult to fix it if there's no example of what needs to be fixed.  sad 

As for the forums - the edit button shouldn't be missing. It was for a short time, but it's been back for days now.  If you still can't see it, you probably need to clear your browser's cache to ensure you're seeing everything, and not an old version of the page that your computer has saved.  I've explained in a few different threads how to do this, but if you need help, let me know and I'll post it again.  smile

Re: New look

I have a few issues with the new look, most of which have already been discussed, and I feel sure will eventually be resolved. On the positive side. When visiting chordie on my mobile, adverts no longer cover half the page.

Re: New look

I'm a beginning player (five years) and I really like the new look. I have always liked the fact that I can edit songs to my liking. Once I've finished the edit I then copy and paste into MS word for printing and practice. I don't seem to be able to print things as they appear. As a beginner I need to have the cords print above the lyric line and this no longer seems to work that way. Please fix this issue or let me know if there is another way. Please Please Please.
