Store settings for album and artists selection and display order #484

Open splintering opened 2 weeks ago

splintering commented 2 weeks ago

On the albums page, the default display order is "random". On the artists page, the default artists selection is "all artists" (including composers, instrument artists, coductors etc.) with the order being "random".

Would it be possible to have a setting where I can define a preset for selection and order? Every time I open the artist page I have to do four clicks (in my case open two dropdowns and selecting "album artists" and "all") before I have a list that is usable for me.

Thanks!

Hello! Maybe the selection could be stored in html local storage (so that it is persistent)?

Possible, but that means it is device-specific and will also change every time I change it in the UI (e.g. if I want to see random order one-time only it will be stored like that in local storage, and when I load the page next time this setting will be used). I personally find that solution less elegant.
