Web Interface Enhancements
Posted: Fri Jul 31, 2009 3:20 am
I have six feature requests, three of which may be considered a bug. If it matters, I'm running Transmission-Daemon 1.73 on a recent release of Debian.
1) When scrolling down a list of torrents, transmission automatically snaps to the top, or if an item is selected, it snaps to that. This can be a serious pain when trying to find a torrent that's 50 lines away.
2) Selecting multiple torrents seems difficult, but not impossible. I've selected 10 - 20 on occasion, but other times the webui seems to only allow me to select individual torrents. I've tried to figure out what circumstances results in my being able to select multiple, but I haven't figured it out yet. It would be nice to select and delete a block of torrents reliably.
3) Select All seems to bug out when you have a large number of torrents being hosted. If I right click and select all torrents (with 172 being hosted...) the WebUI scrolls all the way down to the bottom and then resets at the top, then scrolls all the way down to the bottom again. Interestingly, if you click a torrent as it's scrolling down it will stop on the next pass.
4) It would be great if, when searching for torrents there were a way to search by the tracker and/or ONLY show the tracker. I run an irssi scipt which auto downloads certain files automatically, and it can be difficult to delete 100 torrents when problems 1 and 2 are occurring.
5) A minimal view like in Transmission on my Mac would be great. With a lot of torrents it can be hard to manage all of them. A full height torrent is not always necessary, especially when seeding for a long time.
6) This one has probably been mentioned a lot, but having groups/labels would be great for organizing and managing torrents. I don't think I need to go further into detail about this
