Well the one main reason I wanted something like that was to browse an artists whole album. For example Kernie's collection is amazing. I am going to change all of my Marvel / Darkhorse movies to his covers. This is where it will come in handy.

From what I've seen so far of the advanced search though, is it's kinda clunky. I may have missed the option (And I'll look after this post) to set certain defaults when you go to search. For example I'd like Blu-Ray Custom covers to always be my default option. And when hitting the back button to search it clears everything every time.

i suppose this would be derailing my own thread, and I mean absolutely no offence with this, but when was the last time the search function was overhauled? For a couple notes I'd say that removing the Gallery and the shoutbox from the page when searching / browsing what you've searched would be a good idea. Free up the web page for results, rather than having to scroll down constantly when looking up stuff. On another site (not a cover site) I use quite often, the search is very in-depth, and I could provide a screen shot if you were interested in an idea.


It may seem like I'm picky, but I figured if I didn't voice my opinion, then nothing could be considered. As I sasid, I mean no offence, I'm simply trying to give thoughts to possibly improve the site.


Thanks,

Matt

Here is the rule for the gallery

<autopager>
<site><urlPattern>http://www.hirescovers.net/gallery/thumbnails.php*</urlPattern>
<guid>CEF9BD1F-4318-0232-B560-7B45-B761-89F4</guid>
<margin>1</margin>
<owner>Voetzoeker</owner>
<enableJS>false</enableJS>
<quickLoad>true</quickLoad>
<contentXPath>//div[@class='borderwrap' and div[1]/@class='formsubtitle5' and table/@class='ipbtable' and div[2]/@class='formsubtitle6']</contentXPath>
<testLink>http://www.hirescovers.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?page=1&amp;album=1&amp;sortcode=na</testLink>
<linkXPath>//b[(text()='NEXT')]</linkXPath>
<desc>AutoPager rule for www.hirescovers.net</desc>
</site>
</autopager>

There is already a rule for the forum online, search for hirescovers and you'll find it :D

Edit: adjusted it a bit, Works great now, as much covers on one page as you want :) . . . . but imo the advanched search works much easier though :D

That should work, will check it tonight :D

Thanks Fubs

:cheers:

I added a "next" link in the gallery - to the far right of all the page numbers. I don't use AP, so let me know if this gives you what you need :)

by Shwaffle » Mon Mar 11, 2013 9:05 pm

Well paste the rule you have, and I'll see if i can make it work.

by voetzoeker » Mon Mar 11, 2013 6:46 pm

:chin: hhhmmm unfortunately the gallery doesn't have any next buttons, so it will not work, it works great in the resources section and forums though ;)

by voetzoeker » Mon Mar 11, 2013 4:23 pm

I do for the rersources gallery, but i'don't have it at work where i'm now :D

Will see what i can do when i get home :)

by Shwaffle » Mon Mar 11, 2013 4:06 pm

Do you use it yourself Voetzoeker? If so, share your rule for this site :P Otherwise I'll deal with it when I get home this afternoon.

by voetzoeker » Mon Mar 11, 2013 3:56 pm

Or you could use autopager http://www.teesoft.info/

A nice plugin that automatic loads the next page of covers at the bottom of your current search page so you never have to click the next page button :D

I would have to speak with Fubs about it, but I think the problem will be the amount of database calls possibly slowing the site down. But I shall find out :)
