discussion Latest Updates (LU) Page Update

Don't think I've seen anyone point it out in the thread and I'm sure it's been spotted but going to say it anyway so it's out there.
Erroneous close statement in developer field

Not erroneous - it's a Font Awesome "code" icon used to indicate the developer field.

Everything is working well. The only thing to note is a noticeable lag in terms of game updates. And the question is, does it make sense to report on the available updates of a particular game? I've always tried to report updates, but right now I'm not sure if I should continue to do so. In addition, updates appear earlier on some torrents than on an unnamed site or here. What is the algorithm of actions in this case?

yes, please continue to report when you know of a game update, but please be sure to include a link to where the update can be retrieved from. Everyone's help in making LC better is always warmly welcomed.

Confused, which latest updates is the working one? The one linked on the first post of this thread or button at the top of site?

Seems like in the latest update page AI games that have no Plus content are showing up even when selecting the Plus only filter for games search. Is that as intended and we're gonna see all AI games there now or is it a glitch?

Examples are games like Sinful Spaces and Beast Control showing up under Plus

Yep, that's why I was wondering, was going to say the same thing but didn't know which version was right, doesn't appear to be happening on the beta linked on the first page of thread

The new LU page is pretty clean. I like being able to click through the teaser pics without leaving the LU page, as well as bookmarking and hiding all right there.

I don't see the 'Plus' or 'M+' icon [or whatever it was] that used to be in the corner of a game on the old system to denote a game being behind the Members upgrade.

It's largely arbitrary, but can we get an option to sort tags alphabetically? I like being able to see them by popularity, but alphabetically feels easier on the brain to scroll through if you're just browsing.

Ill be restoring the plus tags as for alphabetical it fucked up again and reverted back

Now that you've pointed it out I feel dumb for not making that connection.

But I guess the text formatting makes it look like it's a part of the same text field rather than an icon/indicator for the dev field.

Is there an option to sort by last update for the game? At least for me the recently updated doesn't seem to work correctly. Or does a new thread for a game that has been added here with an older update mess it up?

yes, it is sorted by newest to this site

 

[Blackthorne]

Ok, thanks for clearing it up! I will stop looking for the secret button to sort it then

 

[Jack Of Blades]

idk what everyone is complaining about, the latest updates page is not sorting by replies (unless you are talking about comics/mods/assets) i have no way to truly pull updates for those.

I at least was not complaining, just figuring out how it works.

 

[HTYYHRK]

I didn't think to take a screenshot before clearing the issue, but currently if you have a forced thread the latest updates page won't redirect you to it, but it will break all the thumbnail images because they do get the redirect message so they return that page instead of their image.

no be the readering updaters that no the be round for month for gone where lurker thread? bank cap is the stupid who fuck coming the up with the shit wheel of the stupiditys?

 

[Darkrift411]

So, I may be going crazy, but I feel like when LU was last updated, it had a field you could type in text to filter (just like fuck95 does). But I cannot find it now. I do see you can now filter by render type, so I was wondering if it got lost when adding this.

 

[Jack Of Blades]

i have fixed the formula to show true latest updates in the LU,

Hybrid Now Drives Everything (No “kinda hybrid”)
All “fallback” behavior is now locked to the same hybrid timestamp logic, so nothing can quietly drift back to reply bumps / edits.

---

What changed

• Sorting no longer falls back to reply bumps
  Every fallback that previously sorted by last_post_date now falls back to the same hybrid expression (lc_bump_date / post_date).
  Ref: latest-updates.php:L1402–L1484
• Card “Updated X ago” is now strict
  “Updated X ago” is now based on lc_bump_date only (with fallback to post_date only), so moderator edits/tweaks won’t change what the card shows.
  Ref: latest-updates.php:L1758–L1761
• Date-range filter (dateDays) is truly hybrid
  The dateDays filter now filters using the same hybrid timestamp (lc_bump_date), so it no longer keys off post edits / attachments / replies.
  Ref: latest-updates.php:L1393–L1398
• RSS pubDate now matches hybrid timestamp
  RSS pubDate now uses the item’s hybrid timestamp (instead of the old/non-existent last_post_date).
  Ref: latest-updates.php:L2269–L2272

---

Notes

• I verified there are zero remaining references to last_post_date or last_edit_date in this script — nothing can “accidentally” act non-hybrid anymore.
• I couldn’t run a PHP CLI lint (php isn’t available in this environment), but IDE diagnostics show no issues.

I am still seeing games jumping up on the LU for reasons I cannot figure out. I see the OP was last edited today, but I dont see a reason why it would get the "Latest Update DateTime2026-01-09 00:00" updated. Is this just an oops from the mod that updated it or am I missing something? I keep seeing these almost every time I check LU. I only noticed this one because it seemed odd that a game with the abandoned tag would be updated.
