Introducing MyFlyVise.com - BETA Phase

and testing the links is how I learned the river conditions app also needs to be fixed.

The joys of launching a whole bunch of things at once. If I were smarter I would have rolled them out one at a time, but I thought it'd be more funner to just get them all in working order and go together.

That did you click on to get that? The PNW Apps links go where they say. The only one that goes to the store is the shop link.
Yup, but now it works...

Are you trying to gaslight me...

Yuse Guys are the best; big thanks for doing this, now I may have to buy more Merch.

cheers

Probably just an issue with cache/your browser not being fully loaded up with the updated info, which can happen with updates.
 
I tried to submit and got a message that I didn't enter materials:

do I need to add them to the drop down list? I don't see the usefulness of the drop down.

You have to click the "Add" thing there or it just stays in the text box. When it's actually added, it shows up as a little bubble just above that. You can do that to add as many materials as you need for that portion of the fly.

The ones that show up in the bubbles are the ones that have been selected for that portion. If the material you're adding has been used before, it will show up in the dropdown selection list - if it's a new material nobody has used yet on there, then it comes up with the "+Add" link which both adds it to your fly, and to the database for future selection.

you are too fast - I updated my post. What is the point of the drop down list?

For quick selection of materials in the database. Keeps input consistent and easily searchable, and makes it so you can add multiple material attributes. Regular textbox input is inconsistent, takes longer to input for the user, and is harder to search (when a user wants to find flies that use a certain material for example) since it isn't in a database. This type of dropdown is by far the quickest and most feature-rich way to do this.

I think the lists are going to get so long they will not be helpful. You will have 100 different adds for dumbbell eyes - lead, brass, painted, silver, black, large, 3 mm, 1/8"........ Why would I want to search on a material?

Just refine your search. If you type brass dumbbell it'll pull only that up. You type the same amount or less as a text box, the only difference is needing to click it.

It's necessary for adding it as a real attribute to the fly object in the back end.

Saw the one you just posted. Good stuff! Don't know why but crab flies have always fascinated me. Love em.

 
I'm counting on you! Go break it so I can fix it.
No time for tying anytime soon. When I do, calamari will be on the menu for sure.

Edit: On the topic of breaking it. Will it be possible to link within a submission post? Example I'm thinking is like with my squid flies, they all use homemade eye-tabs. Making those things is a process in itself.

It can be a fly you tied previously. Nobody needs to know ;)
Almost easier to start from scratch than wading through 600+ pages of What's in my vise... ;) Of course, I know I can search for my posts, but just a bit of hyperbolizing to illustrate why this app is really needed.

Nail on head, sir.

It's why I hope it catches on. That thread is a gold mine but so much of it is essentially lost to being buried.
