Title: Recently Added Help/Suggestions
Post by: RadicalFoo on 2013-02-12 02:51:40
I'm trying to create a Recently Added bar to my columns ui layout. So any time I add new albums to my library there are quick links to these most recently added albums.

You can see from my current layout what I have so far (top left column): http://i.imgur.com/bt9rrNv.png (http://i.imgur.com/bt9rrNv.png)


The current code that I'm using for the filter is as follows:

$if($greater($year(%added%), 2012), $date(%added%) -%artist% - %album%)


I'm just wondering if there's a better way to go about this? As it stands right now, I'll have to edit the code every year.

Ideally, I would like it to display any albums that I've added to my media library in the past 3-4 months (right now it will display all albums added in 2013).

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure that's what I was looking for.

Doesn't that just work in the search bar, and not accomplish what I was aiming to do? Or do I have to add that into my $if statement somewhere?

Correct. Title formatting in general doesn't have references to the current date, and neither does Filter panel in particular, so things like "last three months" aren't definable in Filter.

Yes, it was for use in e.g. an autoplaylist or in a filter with foo_facets (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=88410) with the default UI
