Feature Request: "Show other decks" selection
TappedOut forum
Posted on June 26, 2016, 5:05 p.m. by Busse
Hey people!
In each deck's options there's a box that says "show other decks", but there is no way to select (as far as I know) which 4 decks are gonna be displayed there.
The point being: to have a selection box similar to those used for the Hubs and Share list, allowing you to select the right 4 (or less, dealer's choice) decks you want to have shown.
Opinions? Cheers and gnight
Yes, I do a similar thing with mine; "Previous" and "Next" at the end of each deck page...
I have 5 mono-colored constructed (a cycle) and now I'm working on a dual-color EDH cycle and thought: "Mmmmhh it'd be nice to show just the constructed decks while in the constructed cycle... and certain EDHs on the EDH cycle"
...and now we are here hahahahah
Maybe having the chance to select either "latest decks" or manually selecting between 1 and 4 (ideal for ppl that create lots of decks)

In fact, it actually shows decks similar to the deck in which you are viewing.

I think you're talking about the Similar Deck feature on the bottom right of the deck stats. Busse was talking about the deck setting in edit deck that allows you to display your most recent 4 decks on the left side of the screen below deck options.

@IcyLightning Yes, and now that you mention that... being able to do something with the Similar decks section would be cool too... Like cycling them, or passing on those that are not similar.
Can we get some insight/love from the admins (Regarding the Show other decks thingy)? Opinions from our dear Femme_Fatale maybe?
Thanks, cheers people!

The show other decks option I feel would be fine to allow to choose which decks you want visible. The similar decks I think should just have a "refresh" option where you can refresh the list to display another batch of similar decks at random.
Keep in mind that any site work is done by yeago only. I don't have the coding skills to make any changes.

Yes, but I feared summoning him directly hahaha
I thought it would be good that you read this (as you manage that post with feature and bugs request).
Thanks again Femme_Fatale!

The show other decks selection displays your 4 most recent decks I believe.
I would like being able to select what is shown, but I can appreciate having it show the most recent decks as it shows what the deck creator has recently worked on. You could argue that your profile page allows you to feature the decks you want to show and display.
I've taken to just adding in an accordion of my other decks at the end of my deck description, since I've been developing my own kind of meta for casual play, and it works out pretty well I feel. Looks like this:
