Game taxonomy #1

Closed anakinb closed 9 years ago

anakinb commented 10 years ago

I firstly saw that plugin and tried to create collections and series. I think, it should works for more than one game, so there must be next option or collection will be "game".

Example for Magic: Collection> Magic: the Gathering Series> Khans of Tarkir Example for Pokemon Collection> Pokémon Series> Base set

How do you see this working differently than existing collections? Maybe a new taxonomy for Game?

anakinb commented 10 years ago

New option for "game".

anakinb commented 10 years ago

I can not see anythink, 'cause' there are not any shortcodes.

jazzsequence commented 10 years ago

Plugin is currently entirely in the admin -- e.g. for managing your own personal collection(s). Front end hasn't been built out.

Okay, if i understood i can set up now database of cards with plugin - will it be ready for next version with shortcode? I hope next update come soon.

That's correct, you can create a database of cards, but there's currently no way to display them (outside of the WordPress admin). A shortcode for displaying lists of cards is pretty much the first thing I want to work on next time I have an opportunity to work on the plugin.

Closing this ticket because I think this is duplicate functionality with Collections and Series. You can have a "collection" of MtG cards and a "collection" of Pokemon cards and each of those can be further divided into "decks" of MtG/Pokemon/whatever cards or however you would want to group them. Alternately, you can use Series for Games as well as individual sets (Magic: the Gathering Series> Khans of Tarkir / Pokémon Series> Base set).

Adding a third taxonomy for grouping cards doesn't seem to be adding anything new that isn't already doable currently and would only make things more difficult and confusing later on when we deal with displaying groups of cards.
