discussion Did they give up on the Latest Update?

[Fernqvist]

Saw it was supposed to be fixed yesterday and the pop up saying it will be fixed was deleted so great i thought, they fixed it! Nope, Same problems as before and not a word from anyone.

 

[FluffySparkies]

There's already been a couple of threads about this and technically they said that things are being fixed.

Do with that wathever u think.

 

[Belnick]

it works, but games that are ancient comes on top

 

[Rozhok]

The only thing that needs to be fixed is when you click Latest Updates, it should auto sort on game update date. That's it, nothing fancy.
Hope they can do it otherwise this site is gonna lose traffic soon.

Latest post date is the only issue, kinda think it's server time causing it

with apparent full access to the live website, i'm surprised the whole website is even still here instead of being crippled and held ransom by dev for more money

Dev does not have root access

But is there a way to break a working site? Do you take us, users, for idiots?

Only way he could technically break the site is to delete the categories, but id just restore the site from a recent backup.

Not sure if this was discussed in another thread, are there any backups from before the Latest Updates page was broken?

 

[Frazzanova]

They didn't just give up on it, they broke it more. Now it shows random forum posts in the list.

 

[katemargu]

I've been wondering the same thing, it's been a while since we heard anything about the new content that was supposed to be added, feels like the project has just been left untouched.

Here are my issues with the Latest Update page:
1) The default sort should be by update date (the page is called Latest Update, so that's expected behavior)
2) The date limit doesn't work. For example, when filtering for less than 3 days, it shows games that are a year old

3) The sorting doesn't work as expected. When sorting by date, the order is more or less random

4) Filtering games to exclude a certain engine doesn't work as expected. When I filter games to exclude RPGMs, they still show up. When I filter to not show abandoned games, it works.

So, at the moment the Latest Update page is unusable. It is not possible to find anything on it. The original (old) version is still fine, but it lacks filtering options. Displaying the latest games via Forum - Adult games - Games worked much better. Just add sorting by Latest update date and it is almost perfect.

Until the errors are fixed, it is not possible to fully use the Latest update page.
At the same time, it would be appropriate to establish a dedicated forum for P6 testers, where we could report problems and discuss them privately, only within the circle of P6 testers.
It would also be a good idea to prioritize the "more important" problems and postpone the "less important" things for later.
