Yes, with all due respect, what the heck is going on? It used to work fine so I would hope fixing it wouldn't be too onerous and it has now been over a year since this problem was reported, with more recent reminding, data provided, etc. a month ago. Can we pretty please have this looked at, which berries on top and all that?

No worries. Hey, I don't want to wish problems on anyone else but at least if it's a widespread (if not universal problem) it might garner more attention!

I did change to uke in c then I tried mandolin and the correct chord boxes came up on each.
I didn't go into resources. At the right of the screen where it says transpose and tuning is where I changed things.
Ricky, I think we can all change individual song pages to have the correct instrument (I can); the setting in Resources is to change the default from guitar to something else, so that it doesn't have to be changed on the song pages every time.
So I guess right now we don't have confirmation of anyone being able to change the default via Resources?

Thanks for speaking up folks. Last night I emailed admin and as Roger Guppy said, he's passing the question on to Per.

Well, it's been over 10 months since the last post in this thread but I for one still cannot get default instrument to change to ukulele even though I have that in my settings via Resources. Oddly, there is another thread started this month where someone asked about changing the default tuning and someone replied with how but it's the same method which used to work but hasn't now for over a year. For well over a year no updates were listed in the news section on the front page, but now there have been 2 this year so clearly some attention is being paid to updates and improvements for the site. Perhaps now is a good time to ask again whether someone can fix this issue? Or is it actually working properly for some people? Thanks very much!

A great deal of the joy I've attained from learning and playing the ukulele is thanks to having Chordie as a resource. Thanks to all of you who make it possible.

Topic: Default instrument/tuning setting doesn't seem to work anymore (22 replies, posted in About Chordie)
Hi folks,
I play ukulele and for years have had no problem getting chord shapes to show as the uke ones by default but since a few days ago they're always showing up as guitar ones until I change them manually, for each song, every time. I double checked and re-set my Default instrument/tuning to Ukulele (C-tuning) in Resources > Change Settings and (for what it's worth) uke is also what's set for my songbook. In case it was some problem with Firefox from an update I tried it on Chrome and Internet Explorer and same problem. Does anyone know what might be the cause of the problem?
Thanks!
David

Re: what tablet can be used? (4 replies, posted in About Chordie)
Hi fellow chordie fans,
I got a tablet a while back in large part for this purpose but haven't gotten around to really making it work. I understand how to get individual songs into an app (like Chordinator) but does anyone have suggestions on how to do this most efficiently if you've got lots of songs in your songbook? Is there no better approach than saving each individual song as a file? Maybe some trick to take the saved songbook that Chordie will make for you and some little script that can parse it into separate files and name the files based on the chopro titles in the songs? Any ideas greatly appreciated.
