Topic: Review on front page

[dfmorgan]

One thing though: When you enter things such as "Twilight Saga: New Moon" you really should make use of the Sort Title field and make it "Twilight 2" so they wil be in proper order in the Letter topics

How do we handle such titles as "Star Wars"? I have parts 5 and 6 to add but of course they are shown as Episodes 2 and 3. The list of my films currently show the previous 4 entered as

Title                                                 Sort Title
Star Wars                                          star wars
Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace          star wars i: the phantom menace
Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back     star wars v: the empire strikes back
Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi          star wars vi: return of the jedi

I've now edited the Star Wars titles of all users and simply numbered them from 1 to 6.

Should I just edit the post and remove the additional reviews and start new posts for them?

Split edit them. It's the reason why I said when I created the review list to never wrote more than one by post.

Edit because only a moderator can split a post after it is publish...

Cheers, now I need to get to adding my outstanding reviews.

Now that everyone is participating in linking their old reviews, maybe we could bring back the third window that was on the front page. It had Jimmy's interview, but then instead of just removing the interview, the window was closed instead. If we're going to have much more reviews being added to the random generator, then maybe the third window should return.

If it comes back, maybe the first two windows should be for films, with the third window for TV Series.

Make sense to me

Finally finished adding my backlog. Thanks Karsten for bringing back the third window.

Karsten, I recently noticed that you have links for the user reviews which links to a generated listing of that user's reviews. Would it be possible to have similar generated lists for the above alphabetical "Review List" links? That way Jimmy wouldn't have to update the lists manually.
And if yes, we could make a little stylesheet to have a better looking HTML table.

Also, I think we should have somewhere a pinned topic introducing new members how to add their own review links.

[Jimmy]

That would be practical, since I don't really visit any forums anymore. Wich means that I don't update the review list...

In fact I'm here because I got a thread post notification...

Karsten hasn't said anything about this yet (maybe he is not finished yet or he wanted to see if anybody notices it without him mentioning it), but he implemented my request yesterday. Thank you, Karsten! 
Now we have an always up-to-date listing. Reviews appear as soon as they are entered.

Also, I think we should have somewhere a pinned topic introducing new members how to add their own review links.

Any volunteers for setting up such a topic? Somewhere in the forum the links and the access password are hidden.

Karsten, I just noticed, that the "Insert series reviews" link does not work anymore.

I seem to be having a problem adding the review  I just wrote for Justice League: War... it is giving me Error: Invalid URL.

I know the URL is right... it is the same I used in this post. And it works perfectly. I just copied url and pasted it. So not sure why it isn't accepting it.
