Random navigation - remember type of release

Would it be possible to remember the type of release when it's clicked on the "Random" link? On average, 5-6 out of 10 clicks will result cracks. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against them, but I'm much much more interested in demo scene releases showing up randomly rather than cracked games. So, some kind of a filter would be great there.

Should it replace the existing random link, or should both types be possible?

My idea is, when I'm on a page where the release type is a 'demo', I'd like to get random demos from that point, if I'm on a page where the release type is '4K', I'd like to get random 4Ks, and so on... Get the point? Someone who is interested in random cracks, could click on the random link from a page where the release type is 'crack'. That would be probably the most elegant solution.

Even better, if it isn't hard to implement, a 'release type' drop-down menu with prev - rand - next above it, what do you think?

I think "related" demos (related productions) could be more interesting than random prods. Related in terms of "response demo to this demo", "or sequel" etc.. but ofcourse that would need additional database table to connec the related prods in some way..

That's a good idea CreaMD, but for now, I'd be more than happy with an updated random thingie \:D/

Both random and related product ideas are very nice.

Indeed nice idea. And speaking of board features i would love "by type" under the Sort Credits thing so all the Graphics, Demos, or whatnot are in one block. I think that would be helpful.

Would it be ok, if the navigation thingy is a usersetting, so one can choose to navigate as today, or to keep release-type?

The related thing has been on the todo-list for quite some time now. It was the plan to do a custom relation for all types of entries, so you can connect any two entries, and write a little text as to what this connection is. Guess this covers what is talked about here.

The requested sort by on the scener-page is now implemented. :)
