Filter by Theme

catbricks

Hi Lawrence,

Could you set it so that we can filter searches by Theme/Category? If I've browsed through the catalog and am now (oh, just hypothetically) looking at 3000 torsos, it would be really nice if I could filter to see only the ones in a specific theme or the ones that are uncategorized.

I'm not sure it'll make sense to filter by theme for all parts (i.e. basic bricks), but for minifig parts, it definitely makes sense!

I have just tried searching a theme, then narrow down to minifigure parts and then torsos.

That may be one solution.

What if I want to see the uncategorized ones, tho?

Nathvw

Just looked in the uncategorized parts section and out of the 145 items there (some of which should move at any time as Lawrence appears to have sorted most of them) strangely I am not seeing any torsos.

Nathvw

So only way is to search uncategorised torso. I will take another look.

Ok that does not narrow it down to just the uncategorized ones.

catbricks

Oh, no, sorry, I was unclear. I'm looking at parts that are correctly in parts/minifig/torso, but aren't associated with a theme category.

Nathvw

Yeah just realized I was being silly.

Nathvw

Only way I can figure is to sort the torsos by name then it will give you the 'Lego Torso' first then the 'Lego (theme) Torso'

Nathvw

Hmm even that does not work very well :-?

catbricks

Yeah, not all the torsos got the theme in the name when they got generic names. And I'm removing it for the ones that did as I put better names on.
