Another Request for Download Organization

Scarab Sages

It seems just a little while ago that I was asking for organization of the My Downloads area. It was probably actually about a year or year and a half ago, and you guys did a great job. And, as it always seems to go, here I am asking for a little more.

There don't seem to be too many paizo Products that I don't end up owning a hard copy and pdf of.

Is there any way your products in the My Downloads section can be organized by type like Chronicles, Campaign Setting, RPG, Adventure Paths, Society, Modules etc? Even just another level of subheadings like you are using now for the different publishers, just within the Paizo Publishing section, would do the trick.

Thanks for the consideration.

Eventually, yes, but it's not as easy as you might think. In the meantime, clicking "Sort by name" at the upper right of the list will get you most of the way there...

You ever have one of those afternoons where it's the end of the week and you don't want to start a new project, so you poke around looking for something to do that you might be able to do in a couple hours, and you have a quick insight into a tricky little hack that might just be good enough to be useful, and you spend an hour or so writing up the hack and testing it and the hack works better than you had hoped so you tweak it a little further and refine it a bit and then BAM! there's a new feature on the website?

I love afternoons like that.

Awesome! I wasn't quite at the stage of really needing it, but it's definitely a welcome addition.

FANTASTIC!

Thanks, Gary!!

It's rare that I comment here, but I just wanted to let you know that this is very nice. Thank you :)

I also want to say thank you for reorganizing the downloads page. I've got a couple of hundred .pdf files showing up, and the new organization makes it a snap to find everything. It's a very welcome site buff. Thanks!

This does make everything much neater. Thank you.

Nice and tidy - thank you!

(Would it be possible that it remembers my settings in the next round of tweaks? :-D)

The new organisation is really nice, however I have some minor errors and suggestions for improvement:
.
.
.
.

  • Pathfinder #3 listed under "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Adventure Path" instead of "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Adventure Path #1–6: Rise of the Runelords (OGL)"
  • Pathfinder Adventure Path #37 - #40 listed under "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Serpent's Skull" instead of "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Adventure Path #37–42: Serpent's Skull (PFRPG)"
  • Pathfinder Society Scenarios could have better headings, maybe
    "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Society Scenarios, Season 0" instead "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Season 0"
    "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Society Scenarios, Season 1" instead "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Season 1"
    "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Society Scenarios, Season 2" instead "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Season 2"
    "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Pathfinder Society Scenarios, Retired" instead "Paizo Publishing, LLC: Retires Scenarios"

Yeah... that's the kind of thing that takes this from an afternoon quickie project down the road to "a lot of work." Tweaks will come—and I think Gary has already fixed at least one of the ones on your list—but fixing them all will not happen as quickly as anyone would like.
