We snuck a couple new features into the code last week. Both had been in our list of things to do for months… and now they’re done! The list goes from 569 to 568.8 pages.
Nearly all the films which enter our database are submissions made by users. Indeed, many have added hundreds and hundreds of films to the database. Until now, there was no easy way to see all the films which a particular user had created.
Now when you submit a new film to Criticker, it’s automatically added to a private collection called My Film Submissions Submitted Films. A link to this special collection is available from your profile (or the profile of whatever user you’re interested in!)
All previously submitted films have been automatically added to the collections, so now you finally have a list of your submissions!
This didn’t turn out to be as difficult as we thought it would be! Criticker now has a search plugin, using the OpenSearch platform. Most browsers have a search box in their toolbar, and you can now add Criticker to it. This will allow you to do a search at Criticker, regardless of whether you’re on the site or not!
Great work!
Sweet. Thank you, and the people that have added crazy loads of films. v.generous.
Enjoy your vacation, guys!
You’ve earned it.
I find the bugs just disappear if I close my eyes tightly enough.
Can’t you change the name to “Submitted Films”, like “Ignored Films” and “Remembered Films”?
@Doh,
You’re right. That’s a more consistent name. We’ve updated the names of the collections to “Submitted Films”
It seems to me that the link on my profile to Submitted Films is not there, and I can only view them by going to collections and viewing my private collection…
I can’t find this “My film submissions” link anywhere. I have “Check out all of <>’s rankings!” in the place shown in the picture instead.
edkrak, it came and went. You can still find your submitted films through your private collections.

I assumed it was for privacy but you can’t ‘hide’ the collection.
Sorry about that guys! The link is back… this time to stay.
