Advanced Search in SC, possible new parameter in "Order by" section?

Post by Ivanzx »

I was thinking that may be very interesting to add a new parameter in the "Order by" part of the search, and that would be the date of upload of the file in Spectrum Computing. That way we will be able to sort out the results of a search by the date it was added to the database, so we can have a nice overview of the lastly preserved/added titles :)

Would that be possible?

There isn't an answer on your question, but maybe you know maybe you don't about the existence of the section 'Releases' on the home page:

https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.php?cat=301

Here you can sort all titles by release data or entry_id (higher ID = newer title).

Yes, I know that :)

But this would make it much more complete, for example, to check the last Portuguese games preserved, or get all the order of availability of them ;)

@Einar Saukas

BTW, in the past it was possible to select Genre: All games, Genre: All utilities, etc. But now it isn't possible?
