happy endings

Great stuff. Big thanks to 1nkling for gathering input and for leading up the tech team that's been knocking out issues left and right. Additional ideas to kick around...

-ability for users to report inaccuracies in listings from the art page. like a 'report an issue' button that submits a ticket/issue rather than having to go find an Entry correction thread to report them

-ability to sort collection/wanted/trades by Series, First Added, and Last Added

-give all members access to see the pending new art queue. would majorly cut down on duplicate submissions which is a win-win for members and volunteers

-simplify the Add Art experience. Remove pretty much all detailed instructions and make those a "+" or "?" that members can click on for help. Also have artists/bands/manufacturer auto-fill as you start typing. Visual mockup-


current Add Art page as a comparison

-add filter dropdowns for year/class/ect. Filters are already there on the left page but go unnoticed. Dropdowns would be more visible and easier to use. Something like this-

How about ability to "bulk load" collection from csv or xls(x) file...

Someone needs to add back the view new posts option.

Its in the quick links at the top left. Unfortunately thats something that has been changed by phpBB in their newer versions. You get used to it though.

Well, that's not going to happen so you can either work with us to try and get an EB that works for everyone or you can leave. This is very much a work in progress. The important thing was to get the software upgraded so it was secure. The new version has added a lot of changes both stylistically and functionally. We're going to try to tweak things over time to get us all (or a majority of us ) to a happy place.

GFY

I think it's a change in the right direction.

I do agree that the quick links are rather.... not user friendly... there's about half a screen of dead space up there that could have those links on them.

Good work on this much though. Just upgrading PHPBB3 in itself can be a pain in the ass.
