The Energon Pub

I spent most of today working on revising the primary page of the toy galleries. The gallery interiors (thumbnails and fullsize images) have not been modified yet. I spent a lot of time working on the search filters for the galleries.

Here's a list of the biggest changes:

• You can now type in the series now to affect the series dropdown
• The series dropdown disables series that don't have toy galleries. I originally was going to leave out series that didn't have galleries, but I thought from a usability stand point that it was better to have the series show even if it didn't have galleries so that people aren't wasting their time looking for a series assuming that we would have galleries for it.
• The series now shows how many galleries are associated with.
• We now have FACTION searching. It was long overdue. Woo hoo! It also shows how many galleries are associated with that faction.
• The subgroup dropdown also shows the count.
• Faction and subgroup dropdowns are both affected by what the other one does, as well as the series. I hope the process makes sense.
• I haven't made any changes yet to entering a character name. I think that functionality works correctly.
• I also added the ability to do the reverse searches of what has been available for 20+ years. You can now search by ABC, ZYX, Newest, Chronological, Most Viewed, or Obscure.
• The gallery thumbnails now show the name, series title, number of images in gallery and number of views
• In addition to the above, the main gallery page is now mobile friendly thanks to modern Bootstrap styling/coding and has been "refreshed" accordingly.

I have more to do at a later date, but I think the main toy gallery page is now ready to launch.

I'll work on the interior gallery pages next.

the galleries have been revised again ... new thumbnail layout for the actual gallery and now with lightbox functionality.
