Friday's Featured Feature: Sheet archive improvements

Hi again! Jamaha here with Friday's Featured Feature Following the First. (Okay, these names are getting dumb. Not that it's going to stop me.)

This week brings some added features to the sheet archive. Currently, the arrangements can only be browsed by franchise. How about some other options? Sure! After this update these categories will be available in addition to browsing by series:

- Browse by console
- Browse by arranger
- Browse duets
- Browse arrangements for two pianos

People have requested the ability to browse the arrangements of an individual arranger. Consider that request fulfilled. Console listing wasn't exactly requested, but a fun little addition anyway. Also giving duets and two-piano arrangements their own categories should make it easier for people who are specifically searching for then.

Our old sheet database doesn't have any data regarding consoles, so the console category might seem rather bare for the time being. The console information has to be added manually so it'll take some time before all our games have found a proper console to call their home.

Unfortunately if you go check the site now, you don't see the changes anywhere. This is because this update is still somewhat work in progress. The actual changes happen tomorrow but I wanted to post about this today, as scheduled. This was mostly because this week was rather busy in regards to work and studies. Sorry about that.

Another update next week!

UPDATE: The changes are now live! The console listing is still incomplete, but it will be updated during the next few days.

UPDATE 2: Console listing is now done.

Excellent update. This will make finding sheets a breeze. I have to wonder though, what about browse by composer? Is it necessary or not really?

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

Yes, more people can now find my one arrangement on the site even easier now.
Try to do everything; you're bound to succeed with at least one.

I think the only real reason is because it isn't listed onsite, only on-sheet.

If you need help organizing or listing all the composers and games, I'm your girl. I'm a pro at mindless things like that that usually take hours

Yes, I'm still around from time to time. For quicker response, you can reach me by PM, or drop by Smogon to say hi. I go by "Codraroll" there, because of a bet.

Why are "duet" and "two pianos" in the same section?

Or browse our special arrangements:
Duets
For two pianos

A duet is for two pianos.

"Duet" refers to 1 piano duet, vs. 2 pianos duet.

Perhaps it would be clearer for our non-forum-goers to specifically say "1 piano duet" and "2 pianos duet."
