Add the ability to filter listings with information that could be left blank as "unspecified" in the filter dropdowns. Sorting unspecified info will allow users to find listings with missing info to fill in.

Allow some price specifiers for free puzzles
by CoreMods • 9 months ago
Puzzles that are not sold in any way or not directly sold (promos) should be able to have this information specified. The price would essentially count as 0 for the purposes of sorting or math, but would be labelled with speficif strings. For instance "Free" may apply to puzzles that are freely available to download and 3D print with no option to buy. "Promo" may apply to puzzles given away with other purchases like a toy in a kid's meal or at an event with still no option to purchase it after the fact.

Add a help page of common non-puzzles with explinations
by CoreMods • 9 months ago
It may be nice to have a page for common "not a puzzles". A short write-up with pictures and examples and explanations of why certain things are not puzzles, but may sometimes be confused with one. For example many lotto pickers, marble machines, and do-nothings are misidentified as some kind of puzzle. Have a small paragraph identifying each type of non-puzzle, with a small list of photo examples (possibly sourced from the community).

Sort Categories into Subgroups
by CoreMods • 9 months ago
Puzzle categories should be grouped under major categories in the selector for ease of use and backend improvement. For example, general categories like "Interlocking" act as the parent group for "Board Burr", "Burr", "Coordinate Motion" and "TIC". This has the added benefits of improving categorical search reliability and matching better the generally accepted mechanical puzzle categorization schemes used globally.
See category layout here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oBdwkw25perWuMIxyUHANJSo_Al13p0Xixj_qijgkNU/edit?tab=t.0

Sort Materials into Subgroups
by CoreMods • 9 months ago
Materials should be sorted in the selector from general to specific with major groups acting as containers for specific examples of such materials. IE: Plastic acts as a parent material with the children PLA, ABS, Nylon 12, LEGO. Metal acts as a parent material for brass, aluminum, stainless steel, etc. This has the added benefit of improving search results as in this example: I am looking for a plastic puzzle by material, but it is specified in the database to be PLA, searching for plastic will show all child materials as well, allowing me to find the plastic puzzle I was looking for.

Loan puzzles
by Anonymous • 2 months ago
I would be happy to loan puzzles to people (or keep track of puzzles I have already loaned out).
Discussion
by oRyan • 2 months ago
Admin
A couple clarifying questions - are you looking for a system where users can go to your collection and check out puzzle from you and enter their address and all that so that you can ship them puzzles? Or are you just wanting the ability to update puzzles in your collection to a status of “Loaned”?

replace or crop a picture
by jpartridge • 5 months ago
Maybe these are two different feature requests. One is I'd like you to be able to delete a picture I took and replace it with a better one. Also, sometimes I'd like to be able to crop a picture.

Add ability to easily filter out 'Non-Puzzle' tagged items for all puzzles, puzzles for sale, and collection
by oRyan • 7 months ago
Maybe make this ability for all tags while you're in at it - not just non-puzzles.

Changing the maker/material of puzzles without creating new entries?
by Iambriang • 8 months ago
Maybe add a way to go through My Collection and change (for example) a bunch of Pelikan made wood puzzles to self-made 3d printed ones?
When I started putting all my puzzles into puzzbuzz, I didn't care at the time if I was accurate about the material and maker, I just wanted a database of the puzzles I owned... Situations like the Secret Santa has me thinking that an outsider looking at my collection will think I have some amazing collection instead of the 90% self printed collection I really have. I'd hate to have to create tons of new entries into the database to accomplish this.

Series grouping/list
by Rywdb • 9 months ago
Maybe if certain puzzles are part of a series, you can add them that way
Essentially its another tag, but you can search it up, maybe it doesn't need to be intentionally categorized, but something you could write down and it works similar to when you're adding puzzles and it says "That puzzle may already exist" but instead its with the series

Add "Marketplace" tab to individual puzzle page
by oRyan • 4 days ago
Marketplace tab on an individual puzzle page should show only users that are selling that puzzle. Probably should also have a "want to sell this puzzle?" option for the current user. Once this is in place, we can remove the "Users selling this puzzle" functionality in the button area.

Allow navigation by arrow keys
by pawliger • 1 month ago
If input focus is on the page viewing a puzzle, right and left arrow should navigate to the next and previous puzzles in the list being viewed. If you are at the end of the list, some indication - a bounce and return, a beep, a flash - should let you know you are at the end.

I could not specify that a 3D-printed puzzle was made from PETG. That option should be there.
