So, as we get more logs on the page, the order of them begins to fall apart. Having them sort by the date they are posted is an easy fix, but that supposes that everyone is going to be on top of posting logs, getting them up the day the scene happens. It also runs into problems with logs that are paused and picked up later, those that are backdated, etc.
By tags, they're already grouped into month and year, but I've yet to come up with a good way to use tags to determine the date of them.
The easiest solution is to put the date into the title of the log. You would create the log as usual (so do not put the date into the 'add your log' box). Instead, once you are at the edit pane, you can put the date before the title.
For example, you add a new log called 'Independence Day', and then in the edit screen, change the title to '2016/06/04 - Independence Day'. This would then sort '2016/06/04 - Independence Day' before '2016/06/05 - The Day After Independence Day'.
The important thing with this system is consistency. It would mean that staff or other players would edit your title if you forget to do it yourself.
So I'm opening this up for a day or two of feedback from players before we make any changes, since that's part of doing this beta. Is it worth the extra effort in order to keep the logs in order? Would you rather just have them sorted by the posting date?
