Topic: New feature - filtering

The number of songs are growing, and I am starting to get feedback saying that there is actually too many..


It is not possible to hide some songs. You have following options:

* You can view only very easy songs

* You can view only songs that  are formatted with grids

* You can view only tablatures


I had to rewrite a lot of code to make this possible, and then it might also introduce some bugs. Keed giving feedback, and I'll fix them... <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_smile.gif" border=0 alt="Smile">

Re: New feature - filtering

Thanks a lot for reporting this.


It is now fixed.


If you see similar errors (or just buttons links that do not work).... Please, please, please do like vengence1979 and report them. This one took me 5 seconds to fix, but I was not able to spot the error myself.


There are people who think they should not complain if things are not perfect, and that I would be offented if they complain. Forget about that! I will not be offended whatever you are reporting. I am happy about all bugreports because they are making the site better.


I don't even get offended by messages like "Your site sucks. Nothing works". It is however a bit hard to fix since I can't tell what "nothing" is. In this case, include a description of "nothing", or ideally an example url to "nothing", and I am very happy... <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">

Re: New feature - filtering

I just got an idea!!


I will buy a Chordie T-shirt(<a href="http&#58;&#47;&#47;www.cafepress.com/chordie" target="_blank">http://www.cafepress.com/chordie</a>) to the best bug report this month!


It will be based on

* Bug severeness

* Clearness in description of the problem (inkl. url and browser version)


vengence1979, you are ahead so far, but it has just started..<img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_wink.gif" border=0 alt="Wink">


.... I'll make this a new "sticky" thread....

Re: New feature - filtering

Not so much of a bug, more of a suggestion/request.


It seems that if I change my filter to show easy songs only, it will revert back to showing all songs if I jump to another artist or letting in the alphabet. Is it possible, via a cookie or something, to keep the filter turned on all the time?


It`s an exellent feature and is really helping me find songs that are at my playing level - great job


Cheers,

Sutmae

Re: New feature - filtering

I will make it possible to save this to your profile. It might take a few weeks before I am able to do this though...

Re: New feature - filtering

I found a nice way of doing this.


It will still reset when you go to the songbook etc, but you can now change artists without having to set the filter every time.
