Somehow that would be pretty cool, so you can sort by the “popularity”, and just see how many people have downloaded the sounds, just like in the forum itself
Bug report: sometimes I have trouble with the playback function when inserting the sound into a forum post...
It plays well the first time, but every other time even when I reload the page, it won’t play
Thanks anyway, the nordusersounds site is awesome!
I was rather hoping that star ratings would be a better metric for a user to use, but it requires other users to rate the sounds!
I could potentially do more work to log the number of downloads, but I'd prefer to see the star ratngs feature being used a bit more.
I agree, I wish more folks would rate what they've downloaded; knowing the number of downloads would be really helpful too. On its own, the number of downloads is helpful if an audio file is included with the sample; without an audio file there could be a lot of downloads but that doesn't mean it's good...just popular. For my own programs/samples posted in the Forum, I look at the number of times a post has been viewed and audio listened to versus program/sample downloads; if it's been looked at 1000 times but program/sample downloaded 10 times, I know it has missed its mark - it's either not good, or the "market"/popularity for it isn't there.
Thank you for all the great work on the site! Take care.
