Subsonic Forum

As a feature request, I'd like to see the following two items:

(1) ability to set "Newest" as the default Home screen.

(2) option to send email notification to users when new music is added to DB. Allow users to "subscribe" to the notifications. i think this would be neat since the database constantly grows and changes, it can be like a weekly newsletter type communication.

You can set the default Home screen to Newest by doing the following (taken from a forum post made several months ago):

How about an option (global or per user) to change the default view to NEWEST (or whatever other view a user likes) rather than RANDOM.

I don't know if you tried this, but I changed it to "Newest" by modifying "index.jsp" (sorry, previous edit had the wrong file listed) - exchange line 16 with

Code:

Code: Select all

<frame name="main" src="home.view?listSize=10&listType=newest" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

Where the number after listSize equals the amount of albums shown per page. Granted, this is quick and dirty, but it does the job until this gets included as a feature.

Additionally you could change the reference of the "home" icon on the very top by changing line 30 of "top.jsp" into:

Code:

Code: Select all

<td style="min-width:4em;padding-right:1.5em"><a href="home.view?listSize=10&listType=newest" target="main"><img src="<spring:theme code="homeImage"/>" title="${home}" alt="${home}"><br>${home}</a></td>

Thanks precipitous! I've been wanting to change this for a long time.
