November 29, 20168 yr This new version was definitely a step forward. Well done! People of my community have started using it. I have some suggestions for further improvement: - Side Blocks: although the Top Songs/Playlists/Artists is good, i feel that a nice set of blocks such as "latest" Songs/Playlists/Artists would draw further user attention, specially if used on the first page of the community and improve user involvement with the new songs/albuns/artists. The "Top" widgets are nice but they tend to "stabilize" with time. I know that making those widgets would not take a considerable effort and wouldn't have a considerable performance penalty. - Social Share: the social buttons should be the same as the ones in the community. It doesn't make sense to make use of another service. For example, in my community i have not linkedin share setup, but in the MusicBox the button is there. Besides that the styling and presentation is not the same. This causes an inconsistent user experience. Please reuse the IPS social share template and functionality. - Social Share Button on Play Bar: a social share button in the playing bar would be welcome to allow quick share of playing music Other than this, the app is good and is working reliably!

December 10, 20168 yr As people are using musicbox at my site (which is a musicians community), i found they rarely upload a full playlist. They are uploading their songs, usually just one or two per user. This creates a high amount of song "dispersion" which makes listening overcomplicated: constantly having to go and select another song... Is is possible to add a functionality (two buttons on the player) to play songs randomly (from all songs in the system) or in sequence, to avoid keep selecting other songs to play? It would be great for creative communities where users usually don't upload full playlists.

December 10, 20168 yr Yes. Kind of a button named "shuffle" or "surprise me!" That button would randomly play all songs in the system. Would be great to allow people listening songs from without them having to manually select each song after another.

December 11, 20168 yr Wonderful update onlyME, thank you so much. Some more suggestions! * Settings > Sidebar, Add option to stipulate Genres within "Recommended" (as already possible with Playlists and Songs) * Sidebar has 4 tabs, Week - Month - Year - All..... It would be good to be able to default to a particular one (for example, All), or even better be able to select which tabs are visible. * Upload New Song - after clicking this button, can we set a default category that it autoselects to within the dropdown menu? Rather than have to manually select a category * Embed mp3? I love the built-in audio player within Musicbox. I wondered, is it possible to use that same player inside normal forum posts, so that when someone posts a URL that ends in .mp3, it embeds that player? I'm not sure that's even possible. * Top menu doesn't stay highlighted. For example, if I select the grey tabs "Forums" or "Activity" at the top of the screen (as organised per Menu Manager), then once that page loads then that tab stays highlighted, i.e. it stays visibly selected grey, and so do the grey sub-menus underneath stay shown. However, if I click the grey "Musicbox" tab, then that doesn't stay highlighted grey afterwards, and neither are the submenus underneath visible (unless you run your mouse pointer over the tab again). Can this be fixed so it is obvious on the tabs that the user is inside Musicbox? Thanks again for a superb app.

December 30, 20168 yr I had a report on this file stating it was 120 not 121 although a cursory glance at versions.json shows it to be correct at 1.2.1. I did not install it to test it I merely looked inside the .tar to check.
