User blog:Beboper/Gallery Changes

Hey all,

Just wanted to check in and give you all an update regarding the card galleries. First of all, sorry about not having the latest update ready yet. The friend I was leaching updates of off had his account disabled, and I haven't been able to find another account yet. I have someone who isn't using their account anymore, so hopefully I can get updates off of that in time for next raid.

Secondly, I'm afraid I'll need to make significant changes to the gallery. Some of you may have noticed loading issues to the main iOS gallery. This is because Wikia places a limit on how much template content can be fitted onto one page. While I've been able to streamline templates to help correct the loading issue, I'm afraid that for future gallery updates, the main gallery will no longer be supported. Instead only the three elements will still have their separate galleries. I'm afraid there really isn't any way around that.

Thirdly, I'm also considering making other changes to how the galleries are displayed. Currently, everything is displayed in one go, which makes for long loading times. I'm considering the possibility of having the different sections of each gallery displayed in a tabbed format, to ease loading times. For example, this means that section 79 of the fire gallery would be displayed in a separate tab on the same page, so you would have to click that tab to see section 79. Of course, we could also just cut the fire gallery in half into two tabs, or even four tabs. The downside of this, is that you won't be able to simply press Control + F to search up a specific card. Of course, this will dramatically reduce loading times. How how I set this is up will be based on feedback I receive.

Feel free to leave comments/questions about anything I've said in the comments section below. I'll need your feedback to decide how to proceed with the galleries.
