[ms] DJ Database

Re: [ms] DJ Database

Very useful, people should finally understand the purpose of this and contribute more actively to ms.

Same names from podcasts are really obscure, to be honest, or at least lacking a proper info source.

Re: [ms] DJ Database

What i would say though is that there may be some great music/sets out there by some unknown artists that may be a one off but do we make a profile for that mix or not??

Sometimes there might be a superb mix by a dj that isnt a big name but some folk that post up the sets might think that others will enjoy it.

Just a thought???

Every artist deserves a profile

No probs mate. If there is info about a dj that produces a quality mix then ill add a profile.

Could be another good way for a new comer to get their name noticed.

I would personally only create a profile for some i feel deserves it for their technical knowledge and ability.

But i would only post a mix i feel needs to be shared rather than just posting for the sake of it.

Re: [ms] DJ Database

would there be an easier way to tag all the older threads without going thru the P&R section one by one.

for ex matthew dekay has only 2 sets showing in his profile, would i have to go back to all his old sets one by one and tag him to have em all on his profile?

Not sure but if you search for Matthew Dekay or whoever it should give you the threads that relate to him directly or threads that mention his name.

There may be a more simple way but the technical guys of [ms] will be able to tell you or just have a look through the older threads and tag them yourself.

Re: [ms] DJ Database

I could write some code that could tag some older threads if their thread titles contain any of our artist names. I'm just not sure it's needed, yet, since I only have a 10-set history in the artist profiles right now and many artists have some type of history already.

yeah, but then u will have to go to each thread and tag the artists.

that will be a great idea, you think you can increase the 10 set limit, i was just thinking how great it would be to have all the sets of the artists under his MS profile.

Re: [ms] DJ Database

Eventually I want to add pagination, so you can click a link to go to the next page of sets. If I get around to doing that, I'll spend some time writing some code to try to auto-tag some threads. I have a big to-do list right now, so it's not at the top of my priorities

Re: Find members who have similar tastes in music

I just added some extra record label stats: Top 10 Contributors (we don't have 10 contributors yet!) and Latest Contributing Members.

I also changed the artist search results. It was plain text, and it now returns search results in an image/name format. Click here for an example search on "John":

I just did this for your favorite artists and label search results, too. It was showing up as only text, and I updated it to show as photos/names. Click the link below to see your favorite artists:

Nice one Adam, the app surely appears to be picking up steam with the modifications and feedback. Impressed for sure

Re: [ms] DJ Database
