Now that Brian has such a large catalog of material a suggestion would be to allow more than one category to be selected.
For example; just show me fingerstyle lessons in the Key of A Major.
I know it it would be possible, the question is do people want this sort of additional function and is Brian inclined to cop the cost of changing the search functions.

Good point, Mal. I think this has been suggested before but it wouldn’t hurt to send Brian an email to brian@activemelody.com as he rarely reads the Forum posts here.

I guess I was looking to see if anyone else thought it would improve their use of Active Melody? Given there have only been two responses and only 50% of that sample thought it was a good idea, I hardly think there is much demand, so really why should Brian make the change unless he thought it would be an improvement.
Thanks for your feedback.

Whats wrong with just typing in “Fingerstyle lessons” to throw up anything relevent?, Good luck with trying to get anything changed in the search lay out Mal.

I just randomly picked those two choices. 36 fingerstyle lessons and about 130 lessons in key of A.
So given my choices it is hardly a prohibitively long list. I certainly did not search for the worst case scenario to try and make a point.I guess this why “Suggestion Boxes” have gone out of fashion.

I was thinking that too to be honest, key of A is going to throw up scores in a search in its own right, Ive lost track of how many lessons Brian has put up, must be nearing the 400 mark if not more once you count in the LEG designated lessons, there is another lessons group, BLG or something like that I think..Far too many now to go back and catalogue them, thats for sure.

If I understand correctly, Brian has already cataloged them – given you can search on categories.
All I was thinking is that the search says show me the lessons that meet more than one criteria.
All in coding the search not changing the tags on the 400 or more lessons.Still it has been interesting to hear your views.

Afternoon Mal, no mate they dont all show up using the search function, Blg, Leg and micro lessons dont show unless we search for them using the designated tag.where as all the EP lessons will show without adding the tag ..
Hopefully your suggestion gets taken up...Billy..

I had not given a thought to the Micro Lessons and other material that Brian posts up which are not ep lessons.
In that case you may well be right that sorting out that mess would be a major headache.
I saw the suggestion box with a broken lid in the dumpster outside Brian’s office. Now I know why it is there.
Oh well, back to my scales and chord exercises.Cheers
