Hey everyone! First off, I apologize for interrupting your fapping with the earlier downtime. My name is Kisuka and I'm a new web developer here at FAKKU. I've been hired on to assist Jacob in the continued development of the website (and making sure this place stays awesome). I've been making my way through the enormous backlog of tasks and features, fixing bugs, and coming up with some new ideas. Today's update is my first big project, I really hope you all like it!

Today we are introducing a new feature called Collections! During our time at Anime Los Angeles, we had a fan mention how they were new to the whole doujinshi scene. They told us they found it hard to follow a manga or doujinshi that spanned across multiple uploads, “continuations” of a particular title. So we set out to make this easier for everyone.

At first the plan was to fulfill the objective of displaying a collection on the content information page, linking to each piece of related content. But then we decided to take it a step further… by allowing users to create their own collections!

With Collections, you are able to add various doujinshi / manga / books into a collection you create. These collections appear on your profile and can be either public or private. You can name them whatever you want... Futanari Friday? At the moment there is a limit of ten collections per users.

Creating a Collection

You can create a collection by either visiting your collections page on your profile, or via the “Create Collection” button on your collection list after clicking the “Add To” button on a piece of content.

Editing a Collection

You can edit your collection by visiting your collection's page on your profile, once there, click on the 'Edit' button in the top right.

Deleting a Collection[/b]

You can delete a collection by clicking the †˜Delete’ button while editing a collection.

Adding to a Collection

You can add content to a collection by clicking the †˜Add To’ button while viewing the information of a piece of content. You will be presented with a list of your collections, you can then select which one you want that piece of content added to.

Let us know if you have any issues or suggestions regarding the new Collections feature.

Other Changes

- Messages are now condensed into conversations, rather than a new line for each reply.

- Improved /manga and /doujinshi landing pages to include cover images for "Popular" and "Controversial" lists

- You can now edit comments and include basic BBCode in them (bold, italic, underline, spoiler)

Ah, finally. Something we've all been looking for. Now, looking forward. I was thinking, wouldn't it be nice that we could Share collections? Say I assembled one and another user can copy it into their collection list?

Also this:

That's actually one of the ideas we had in mind originally. Just is a future task at the moment as we wanted to get it out asap for you guys to see the impressions with it first.

I can deal with maintenance downtime if these wonderful things arise from them. :3 Hope to see updates and improvements in the future, but for now, well done.

This is interesting. Will definitely help in organizing shit for us Helpers now.

One question. Fakku has always had some multi-chaptered series, like Honey Blonde, Angraecum, and even the recent Otaku in 10,000 BC. Is there any way for us to actually organize those into official content collections (like the Plugsuit Fetish one), or can only Uploaders and Admins do that?

Those that can edit content on the website, you should have the ability to create collections when on the edit content page. There's a 'collection' field on that page. Type the name there. It'll look for existing content collections, if one exists, select it, if one doesn't exist just leave the name there and it'll create it when you submit the edit.

That works out nicely so basically it serves as a tankobon for manga based works as well

Nifty feature. I think my favorites page is sufficient enough, but, who knows, the extra organization is always useful. Also inb4 someone asks about read later.

So it's the same as making/editing new artists and events onto a doujin? Sweet, that's hella convenient. Especially now that I realize a series can be tagged as original and still be marked with a collection to collect all the chapters together.

Thanks, Urahare. Welcome aboard, by the way.
