techmanjoy Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Would it be possible to have the date added when a chapter is submitted to the Library section of the site? For most of the stories you could find this by reading the updates. However having this on the Libary section under each chapter would be nice when you are reading a story so that you can get a feel for how quickly an author is writing and how soon another chapter may be posted. I know I personally like to know "Ok, well this author posts an update about every week and it has been a week since he last posted, I'll check back here in a week". That sort of thing at least. And I'm sure there are others out there who do the same. Having this sort of thing would make it a lot easier to find than to have to search through past updates to figure it out.

Zach Caldwell Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 This is something I am looking into. Thank you for the suggestion as it reaffirms what I believe as well. Keep an eye out as I work out the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmanjoy Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 That's great to hear! I look forward to hearing more about it and seeing it implimented if that is what the staff decides to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rilbur Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Techmanjoy, Speaking as the webmaster/programmer, I can say that your feature request is unlikely to happen in the short term. Simply because right now, we don't have the information to begin with. It's just not in our system. It's also non-trivial because it'd require a redesign of several parts of the site. Long term, we may decide to re-address this. In fact, I'd even agree it's a good idea. But it's going to have to wait for version 4.0 -- or at least 3.1 or so. And to be blunt, I just don't have the time to do that much work right now. I don't have enough time for my paying work, much less my paying work and my writing. With a perfectly working site in place, I am not interested in spending more time doing Yet Another Major Overhaul. Not happening. Just... not. And I'm the only professional programmer the team has available right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
