Since my last remarks on this topic, I've understood one thing: making the number of column higher would not be a good idea for the neat and efficient display we all know and love. Got it.
This said, I'm still surprised why some things are not done. Are they considered useless according their effort/benefit ratio? Maybe it is more complicated than I'd imagine. My approach is, if the sql table already is here and full, fetching data couldn't be that hard.
My complaint is about the music section mainly but one could generalize:
In the sort field:
- I'd like being able to sort alphabetically by author. Last time I asked I was answered it's simple to input an author in the filter. But if I don't know a particular author I'm looking for, I can't
In the filter field:
- Adding two dates fields, so I can display items that are in-between dates. Makes it way easier to sort things according to date, for example if I wanted to compare items from a particular period in terms of authors, #of download, etc.
- Not as important, but I only recently found I can access earlier versions of a submission. A little filter that discriminates updated items would help locate them.
And finally I'd find it great if a feature allowed to download a .csv of the tables. I've tried saving the .html page, copy-paste to Excel, I've even hired a business chrome app in doing it, but all of them were unsatisfactory.
Thanks for bearing with me here.
