NEW Navigation Options with "Add Filter" option

Postby tcawe »

An important intermediate step in improving navigation options on Colnect: you can now switch lists at any time to add additional filters. Common use cases:

* You view another member's coin collection and see a list of countries but you wish to see his list by compositions. Now you can click "Compositions" next to the add filter.

* You started navigating stamps by country and chose to see German Stamps and they're divided by years which is what we expect most collectors to want. BUT this time you want to see themes (tags) relevant to Germany so you click "Tags" and see German Stamps by Themes. You might be interested only in commemorative stamps of Germany so you click "Emissions" and choose commemorative

Thanks! This is great and a very very helpful feature.

And it seems even more is in the pipeline :-)

So, my suggestion thread can be closed. :-)

https://colnect.com/de/forum/viewtopic! ... 6t%3D30359

Just 3 remarks:

1) Bug: When visiting (phonecards: Germany)

https://colnect.com/de/phonecards/compa ... esrepublik

and clicking catalogs it shows the page

https://colnect.com/de/phonecards/catal ... esrepublik

where the country filter isn't working anymore

2) The previous filters are not needed anymore and can be removed

Example: Years list and tags list at

https://colnect.com/de/phonecards/serie ... he_Telekom

3) The design of the filters should be a bit nicer.

(Of course, 2 and 3 do not have priority when there will come a bigger change anyway)

1) Bug confirmed: also true for "Colors list". To be fixed ASAP. Ticket #972

2) Indeed, wanted your confirmation that the features work as you expect them first. Let me know it's all good and I'll remove those.

3) Will be done as we re-design the whole navigation (and perhaps other parts of Colnect)

This looks a good improvement. Some hidden features could also come out here: "issued until" and "issued since" would be helpful, so you could give a range for issue years. Also the "face value"? My personal favourite :).

2) Yes, the previous ones can be removed now.

4) An other bug:

"Companies" exists twice at lists such as

https://colnect.com/en/functional_cards/themes

funct.png

And I agree with Mats - more filters are always better.

Maybe also "New Items".

In regards to additional filters and features, we'll get to it soon.

Bugs mentioned by Jens are now solved. Please continue exploring this across category and see which other minor bugs come up. Thanks

There are also some minor details that would make easier to use those filters. A drop-down list would help a lot in most cases. In stamps section specially filtering with colours or currencies - those lists are so long that a dropdown would help a lot. Maybe some other lists too if there are very many choices to select from.
