moonbeams Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Definitely agree with the above post. Also, can we limit to 100 items or so per page? Having everything scrolled on one page makes it difficult to browse. Also, how about we click on a release and it shows us who else has it? Or a database that introduces other users who have similar collections? wheresoulmeetsbody 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezfools Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I agree with combining LP and 2XLP, but having them across multiple pages is annoying to me. I see it being very difficult to browse through 15 pages of a collection versus just using a scrollbar to go up and down. Just my two cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srcvinyl Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 don't know if this has been mentioned already, but i'd suggest putting the LPs and 2xLPs in the same group and just have them differentiate in the description. it's annoying to not have them together We might just give people the option to turn off the category sorting if they want. If you do not set the correct format for each album (LP, 2XLP, 7", 10", ETC) it will not help build a solid accurate list when searching.

You can also turn this into a dating service and charge to see who has the most similar collection to you as compatibility. danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbruise Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 For some reason I thought that feature would've been the whole ideal. You put your wants up and it matches you with a person selling or trading. I was looking for that feature when making my list. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put your wants up and it matches you with a person selling or trading. I was looking for that feature when making my list. This would be a powerful tool that would bring a lot of new traffic to the site. It really requires very strict standardization of the tradeslists (even more so than what I saw). Just played around with it for the first time and I saw different entries for Gaslight Anthem - Sink or Swim on "clear" and "Clear". Plus you don't want some people calling "orange" "gold" and stuff. Good luck doing anything with Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose. Ever single option needs to be standardized (ie, chosen from a dropdown or for something like band name, you type the first 4 letters and then the full name shows up). Not sure how this info is being obtained right now. But if you can balance having rigid standardization but still having the ability to easily grow the database as new records come out and old records are entered for the first time, you have essentially made the text/spreadsheet based tradeslist systems obsolete. tittus and drds89 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will al be fixed in a week or two. No drop downs as there is no way to have every variant on earth but no doubles or duplicates. That was what we are working on stopping and fixing since this launched. All the good stuff is being planned as we speak! It's going to kill it!

krisakarcher Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 So I found something. When looking at a trade/for sale list on an iPad, there is no way to scroll over the green for sale icon to see the price. Not a huge deal but I like browsing this site on my iPad.

That is interesting. I have no idea if this can be fixed as its probably not something the ipad browser can handle...and i wish i had an ipad to test with but i do not. Maybe someone with some coding background can fix. PM me? I never thought about using this with an ipad but that could be quite fun and helpful when adding your collection. I would love to make an iphone app that you just scan a barcode and it adds it to your collection. Better yet maybe just scan the cover and it finds it and adds it to your collection. Maybe we need a kickstarter for some dev money =) Kidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 finally completed my list This is a perfect example of why we need to limit how many items display on each page. You have an amazing collection btw! How long did it take to add 700+ items in the vc management system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seangj Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I finished my list today. The one big complaint I have is in the organization. I entered all the formats correctly to keep the database accurate, but it is really annoying that the LPs and 2XLPs are split up and anything entered into the "Other" category (7" Split, Test Press, etc) gets mixed together alphabetically. It would be nice to be able arrange your list how you want, not strictly by the format. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonbeams Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I really like this feature, but it needs some more work. First, we need to max out the number of records shown per page to 100 or so. It's difficult to browse through 600+ records. Second, it would be really nice if the lists were searchable for other users. I like how discogs will notify me of items that are for sale in my wantlist. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeshort06 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hey, can someone look at my list and tell me why my "Split 7" and "Cassettes are spaced out in a few different spots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admin Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hey, can someone look at my list and tell me why my "Split 7" and "Cassettes are spaced out in a few different spots? I actually noticed this last week when I was building my reference lacquer / Test Pressing list in the ShopRadioCast profile. I think when you select "Other" it is alphabetizing ALL others and putting the header above each time it switches. You can see here; http://boards.vinylcollective.com/index.php?/user/3134-shopradiocast/page__tab__collection We sent a note to someone to look I think on Thursday to verify this is the issue and fix.

danny Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Unfortunatley we are in between help fixing some of these bugs. We are waiting for some people to help but its a slow process. I expect the small changes to happen soon and maybe we will have a huge update of features and such in jan 2013. We have been busy just keeping up with VC in general. Its like a full time gig just keeping up with the day to day. Stay tuned! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbruise Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Couple of suggestions: Text only version/option to hide pictures. Quick links to 2xlp, 10in,lp, etc... Search function (unless im missing this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Started loading everything here and learned the quirks and workarounds-- great concept if you can ever get it to work-- and people use it (to match up WANTs with TRADE/SELLs). But the Spyware/attack whatever, locked me outta here for 4 or 5 days, so I just did like everyone else and loaded up at DF. Text entry is easy and editing easy. Search feature stinks (dragnet) unless you have a real unique word like "Antediluvia", then you get a lot less false hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeshort06 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 It's not working for me now..everytime I enter in all the info for a record and press submit it says I left everything blank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
