Collection albums: can not be sorted by artist

Since Allmusic's new look, collection albums can no longer be sorted by artist. That's quite annoying!

Actually, Allmusic hasn't at all improved since the new layout. The old one was far better!

We have recently enabled a "List View" for your collection.

You can toggle between a grid of large covers, or a list of metadata within your profile.

Great, thx a lot!

Could you perhaps also put back the option of displaying one's collection as a list rather than tiles?

Kind regards, Michaël.

This is something we're working on now.

Thanks.

Hi Michaël,

We were able to put this fix in place yesterday.

Please take a look at your collection and you should be able to sort by:

Artist Name
Album Title
Your Rating
Album Release Date

Thanks.

The old collection design didn't *really* sort by artist name either. It was only sorting what was visible on the page, but if you went to Page 2 of your collection, it would just sort those on-page as well. We never had a full "My Collection From A-Z" working properly.

We removed that as an option in this iteration because we're planning to actually do it right, but it involves some back-end indexing that we just haven't been able to get to yet.

We hope to improve the User Profile section further in January. Thanks for the feedback.
