Title: Profile option - showcase/links/tracklist
Post by: redmistpete on October 18, 2009, 10:44:17 AM
Is it possible to see all the music (past & present) which has been created by a particular member on one page?
If not, would it be possible for us to paste links to our music on our Profile in a "Music by this Member:" box? Kind of like an album track-listing.
That way we can quickly keep track of each others music and it might encourage more production.
Either that or we could each create a thread on a new topic just for links to all of our music downloads which can be added in the "My Website" box of our profile. We could update the thread as we add more music to the site.
I thought about adding the links to my sig but then I thought it would get annoying for people as the list of tracks got longer and longer.

Excellent idea. In fact one of the best ideas I've seen ever in TIMGUL. I could not agree more. If we could be able to click a members profile and see their entire catalog of music that would be of great benefit. As you said to keep track of each producers music.

from the members list, click on the name of the member and then select 'show contributions' from the 'profile info' menu

But surely you couldn't just go and select the thread via the member's profile? Like, have a section in the profile saying

LATEST TRACKS BY [name]
MTVMG:

NON-MTVMG:

?

I'm all for it but not sure how to make it so as I'm still trying to get used to the admin tools. Also, my incontinent PC won't even give me a display so I can't go online with it so using a family member's PC right now. STUPID TECHNOLOGY.

Oh, no worries!! Don't stress about it -the site's great as it is :)

How about adding "Artists Showcase" under Music showcase? Then each member would be able to post a song list or link list on their own. Might end up being like a user based contents section and it might make it less time consuming than going to each members profile and checking contributions.
