Hey everyone, I have a surprise new feature on the Collection Serach page! Bulk editing games in a collection has been one of the most requested features and I'm pleased to announce I've finally made some movement on it. As many of you already know, I try to take a "keep it simple" approach for new features like this, so what you see before you today is extremely barebones. Please consider the functionality that's available to be a "proof of concept" to make sure we're heading in the right direction in regards to bulk editing. As you can imagine, bulk edits are a complicated matter and there are lots of fields that you could potentially want to edit. On top of that, fields have certain dependencies. So rather than allowing you to bulk edit ALL of the fields ever in a single screen, I'm providing individual modals for each "item". The only one available for now is the backlogged flag. When viewing your collection, you should see a new checkbox sitting below the other buttons on the far left column. If you check at least one of these, the new green Edit button should become enabled. You can then click it and then select an option (again, only Backlogged is available for now) to get a specific modal for editing that piece of data. After you save your changes, the grid will refresh. Assuming this approach works well, the next item would be tags since they seem to be the most commonly requested edit. Another thing I'd like to do is make it a bit more obvious that a row is checked / selected. I could potentially give it a different background or border. I also think the checkbox should be bigger or perhaps a button of some sort. I'm not really sure on this stuff, but I know what's in place isn't the most intuitive UI. As always, let me know if you have any issues or feedback! I hope this will help save everyone time |
