[Feature Request] Artist/Album/Genre Filter

Postby dsync89 » Thu Dec 20, 2012 4:58 am

Hi hakko, is it possible to include the filter such as follows for easier browsing? In my opinion, album browsing is best for browsing anime/game related music albums. Artists is best browsed for vocal/classical related tracks.

There's an option in Personal settings to display your Various Artists albums in the left column (below the artists) since 0.7.16. If you want something completely different from that, you're probably best of modding it yourself.

Hi hakko, actually I wanted to do so but have limited skill in JSP programming. What I can do so far is to modifying the user interface. May I ask where should I get a list of $model.something to check whether the Album or Genre link is being clicked.?

I hadn't done much JSP programming before I started this project. Trial and error and maybe a good book is your best friend. The values available in model.* are put there by the corresponding Java Controller. So for left.jsp, you can access whatever you've added in LeftController.java. https://github.com/hakko/subsonic/blob/ ... oller.java
