"In Collections" (Attn: Matt, Scott, Fox, etc)
« on: October 11, 2013, 09:48:41 am »
I just noticed this yesterday - since it was the 1st time that I was entering multiple entries of the same item since "The CHANGE" - that, now...when I click-on the "in collections" tab...it's showing my name 3 times (and counting me as 3 (of the total) # of people who have it in their collections).  :o

A minor thing, to be sure -but- it wasn't like that before...or was it?

Ya its been like that the whole time. I noticed it back when I got dupes of my castlevania games.

I forget if I mentioned it to Matt or not.

Is this a variable issue?  I tend to see that page a lot when I'm popping back and forth to make sure I entered new items to my collection correctly, but I have never noticed this error....

I was looking into updating this but ran into an issue because we also display the "Added" date. I think we'll just have to leave it as it and maybe just change the text since it really reflects how many copies and not how many collections they are in.

*Tries to remember who this "Matt" poster is*  :o

*Seriously*, though - good to see ya Matt!  ;)

What about *not* having the "added date" there?

Each user (if they really wanted to) could still find their "added to collection date" elsewhere; no?

IMO = it doesn't seem very important for every/anyone else to be able to see what date others added it on...on that page; ya know what I mean?

haha how could you forget me!? :(

Things are finally settling down with the house stuff so I'm back to pushing out some updates. I miss you all.  :'(

I agree that the dates are pretty worthless...let me see what I can whip up.

That is good to hear....   Administration is a tough job, and I've known many to float away and never return out of laziness....

Not sure if it's working right, Matt...

I just added another Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness strategy guide -and- it's still showing me as 4 separate entries...instead of just as in my collection.

Also, when clicking on its link to Amazon...it takes you to the game's page *NOT* the guide's...

He had to change it back due to the way its listing what each entry contains. The Collections total is correct but now it shows you if a person has the disc/case/manual/inserts.

Gotcha'.

What about the mis-linking - Amazon's problem?!

I think Matt said he was going to look into it.
