This has been discussed on a number of threads, but there are three main items I'd like to tackle with this one:

  • Bulk edit
  • Filter saving
  • Column customization

I've already started the bulk edit feature and it's just a matter of implementing the remaining fields that make sense.

Filter saving is a fairly easy one, but will take some thought to figure out how it fits into an already cramped UI. There's also the management of them once they've been saved and how they exist with quick filters.

Column customization is the biggest one since it will require a complete rewrite of the page. The idea here is you would be able to include / exclude any number of columns. This would allow you to truly customize your collection to what works best for you, but is a huge undertaking in terms of development, so any feedback you all may have would be really helpful. Although it seems like a really cool feature, I'm not sure how much demand there is for it.

Great features all. No feedback for the Bulk Edit and Filter saving,
On the column customization, I would suggest to have it limited to a certain number within certain bounds. With the latter I mean that you should always see the buttons left and right, the box art and the column with the title, stars, tags etc. The other columns (right now Platform, Added on, Est. time, Amt paid, Avg time, Ownership Progress) should be customizable and a user should be able to pick 2 - 8(?) pre-defined columns. Some columns now shown are complex\composite and I like that. Columns that would be candidate are :
- Platform
- Added on
- Est. time
- Amt paid
- Avg time
- Ownership
- Progress
- Region
- Edition
- % achievements
- Acquisition date
- Acquisition source
- Acquisition type
- Avg. time overall
- avg user rating overall
- has bounty
- Playthrough stuff (has playthrough, % completed, archived or not)
- list with all the lists it belongs to

All should be sortable I guess.

I would definitely use it to get rid of the ownership status and amt paid columns. And add the last column suggested :-)
