Title: Suggestions and bug report
Post by: Wolololo on December 28, 2013, 01:45:38 pm
Hey,

So I'm new to this website, I was looking for something like Discogs.com but for videogames and I found VGCollect and I love it. :)

Anyways. So I have a couple of suggestions.
- First I thought you could add more currencies to the "Cost" section. Euro (€), Great Britain Pound (£), and maybe Japanese Yen (¥).
- Also, about Steam, I thought you could just get rid of the "[US]" since Steam is exactly the same in Europe. Same games, except maybe a few games blocked in some countries.

I tried to search if anybody haven't created any post about these suggestions, but I couldn't find any search bar or whatever. Is there one ?


I'm also encountering a bug (besides some server crashes) whenever I click on a game, a small box pops up for like 1 second with just written "failure" on it, and then it closes and the actual game page opens. Here's a screenshot :

That's all, I guess. Thanks for reading. :)

Welcome to the site and thanks for the feedback! Let me address your suggestions and issues:

1. Probably a good idea as we continue to grow. I'll add it to the list.
2. I'll let Foxhack address this one as he is the Steam guy around here.
3. This will be addressed in a large update coming later this month.

I don't know why Steam has the [US] thing, actually. :P

Yank it.

Hey Matt -

How about an (optional) link to the "Introductions" thread on the page where people join the site?

I'll PM you about this. I've got some other ideas and would like to display a bunch of info right on the empty collection pages.

That's a good question.  It's tucked away in bar right under the logo when you're viewing the forums.  To the right of "Forum Home" is "search" where you can search for topics and whatnot.  Hope that helps!

Oh yeah, I see it. I was looking for a search bar and didn't even notice the Search button. Well thanks :p
