somethingvinyl Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 it's in beta. Not sure if it's invite only. Beta.deadformat.net Alright, then to rephrase my question, what all is new about the beta? http://www.deadformat.net/tour.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnoldlayne Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Did anyone else lose pictures on their list? I uploaded a bunch of pictures for my 7"'s on Saturday and now they're all gone... All my photos are there except the three I added on Friday evening. So you may be out of luck. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradedOnACurve Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Updated my list today. I thought one of the bugs they fixed was disregarding the "the." Doesn't work apparently and it irks me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a bug per se. You can enable sorting without "the" on your tradelist settings page. Any other issues or feature requests, it would be amazing if people would please post them on the DF board so they can be taken care of! Thanks!

pushbacktosquare Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Updated my list today. I thought one of the bugs they fixed was disregarding the "the." Doesn't work apparently and it irks me. Try going into your settings and turning that feature on? It works just fine for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maintreqd Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 i'd gotten really used to keeping a separate word document (google documents that are available anywhere as long as you have a browser and know your google password) to manage my list and when it came time to update, delete my whole tradelist and reupload it. This kept my records organized the way I want them to be. Dead Format's new UI is nice but it forces alphabetical sorting of each band's albums, where I'd really prefer they be sorted chronologically by release year. I don't suppose there's any way to turn alphabetization off, or at least restrict it to ONLY alphabetizing by first LETTER, which would be the band's name, and let me do the rest?

I wouldn't expect Dead Format to sort that out for you. A small bands demo 7" could have a disputed release date or have been pressed years after being originally released on another format. For those who would want it chronologically one should do this: (example) Foo Fighters - 1995 - Self Titled (Black) Put the year yourself. Problem solved.

adamlikesmusic Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 If I were to add all my records onto my DF again, is there a way to export the list into an Excel spreadsheet or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 you could just copy your whole list and paste it into a spreadsheet, thats what i do occasionally incase something happens with that site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exitenglish1208 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 i'm not a huge fan of the redesign...it feels like it requires far more clicks to do anything...like i used to be able to go to edit tradelist, or add to tradelist from the "view" page, but now there'st his tradelist central and dropdown menu, where i'd prefer it just listed them all by default. not a big deal i guess, but annoying nonetheless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Another Tom Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 How do I access the mobile version? From what i have read there is not mobile version, the website is just optimised for mobile devices. So just visit the site with the browser on your mobile device. Saying that, since the re-design i struggle to use it on my iPhone 4. just loads whats on the screen then lags. Going to give it a few more tries before i report it as a bug.

dethrock Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I was trying to turn that signature into an image link so that you could actually click it and go to my tradelist, but I can't get it working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
