Hello !

Is there a way to share my collection page link with specific filters and settings ?
For example I'd like to send to some friends my collection page with the minimized view, sorted by platform and without expanding compilations.
If this is not possible now, could it be considered as a potential feature to add ?

Thanks !

When you apply filters from the "Filters" button (for example, not expanding compilations), it changes the URL. Copying this URL will save those filters and they'll show up for your friends. However, the "Minimized/Expanded/Shelf" and "Sort By" drop-downs will have to be manually set by them. You can make a recommendation to your friends on how best to view your collection in that case, but unfortunately there isn't a way to force it yourself (that I know of).

Thank you very much WeirdLittleDog, and sorry for the very late reply.

I tried setting the filters so the compilations are not expanded and copy/pasted the URL, but it didn't work. The compilations were still expanded.
Not a big deal though, still the best collection management site I've used so far for me =)

Thanks !

Oh no, sorry about that! I thought it worked for me when I tested it, but I may have given bad advice. I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying the site so far though, it's also the best one I've come across.
