Topic: Suggestion time

I was wondering if it is feasible to incorporate a simple metronome into the control panel box on the song pages? I think it would be very handy.

Thanks for the great sight,
John

Re: Suggestion time

Welcome to the Chordie forum NUI!

That's a good suggestion but I think the main admin (Per) will have to evaluate. In the meantime, what I do is simply open up this free online metronome in another Tab. Works well for me.

Re: Suggestion time

Another suggestion - Enabling sorting options in songbooks:
Every time I log-on to play my guitar, I really need to search for those latest songs I've added. I wish there was a "sort by date added" option.

Re: Suggestion time

Another great suggestion kanija - thanks! I am offering alternative workarounds for these suggestions since the site owner is very busy and it may take time to address. I do not even know if your suggestion is possible. Chordie is a hobby for the owner - not even a full-time project! From the FAQ:

"Chordie is my personal hobby project that I did because I was learning to play the guitar and to program at the same time. It is an experiment, not a commercial service. No one is working on the project full time. Even if I try to answer all e-mails, it might be periods when I won't be able to."

OK so a suggestion for a workaround - Have you tried to add a second song book and include only your newest songs in it? I believe you can include the same song in multiple books, that way you could have a "Main Book" with all your tunes - and a "Learning Book" for those you are working on. Just a suggestion to address your suggestion smile

that could be a good idea.  i like to know what newer songs I am trying to learn.

I have overcome this by making a new songbook called " new songs" and when I learn them or get bored withthem I transfer them into whatever other book I think they should belelong in.

ye get some that are cut out for the job and others just get by from pretending

Re: Suggestion time

Good idea.

Unfortunately I have not stored "date added". I cant enable this feture until I have some data here. I will add the field, and in a few months I can enable the feature.

Ill look into the metronome thing, but I do really need a plugin here or something. Might be tricky to develop from scratch.
