{"ops":[{"insert":"Hello brewers,"},{"attributes":{"header":3},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nWe've implemented an optional feature that "},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"automatically applies custom categories (Ramp, Draw, Removal, etc.) to cards you add to your deck"},{"insert":". These auto categories were assigned to cards based on the ones most commonly applied by our users. So thank you for providing us with the data to do this!\n\nA few notes:\nThere's only about 30 auto categories that we've chosen to allowlist. This was done to ensure you don't end up with some cards in \"Draw\" with others in \"Card Draw\". In general, you may find the categories end up being broader than you'd personally make them (\"Removal\" includes boardwipes and targeted removal, for instance), but it keeps the data much cleaner and consistent than it'd be otherwise."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Additionally, not all cards have auto categories assigned to them yet. These tend to be new and less commonly played cards and you're not likely to have too many of them in any given deck unless you're making something super spicy. As these cards get assigned to custom categories more frequently however, we'll eventually have enough data to assign them auto ones as well."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"On your Account Settings page, this is an opt-out feature, meaning new users will be using these auto categories immediately. "},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"For all preexisting users however, we've toggled the opt-out on already as to not interrupt anyone's workflow"},{"insert":". If you're interested in trying it out, we'd greatly appreciate you turning it on (in this case, by toggling off the opt-out) and letting us know what you think! You can find it under "},{"attributes":{"link":"https://archidekt.com/accountSettings/sitesettings"},"insert":"Account Settings > Site Settings"},{"insert":" > Card Search Settings. (We briefly had a bug where the opt-out wasn't being applied to preexisting users. If you're noticing that's the case for you, please try refreshing the page and/or logging out and logging back in.)"},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n"},{"insert":{"image":"https://i.imgur.com/iZvR0IF.gif"}},{"insert":"\n\nThat’s it for today! We know this won’t slot in well to everyone’s workflow, but hope it proves useful to many others. \n\nIf you have anything to suggest or report, you can find us here, "},{"attributes":{"link":"https://twitter.com/archidekt"},"insert":"@Archidekt"},{"insert":" on Twitter, or over in "},{"attributes":{"link":"https://discord.gg/eZg3mvJd7v"},"insert":"Discord"},{"insert":".

{"ops":[{"insert":"Yup, good catch. We're discussing internally a couple of different approaches, but we definitely plan to make the new auto categories work with packages in some way. Thank you for the heads up! \n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"It doesn't for me.\n\nWhat browser are you on? This sounds similar to a firefox bug that doesn't respect cookies on redirects for some reason. \n\nThat link should work so long as you're logged in. \n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"Useful feature for those who have little patience and expertise to sort themselves. Thanks for letting me opt-out of the feature. There are some cases where I like to be more specific and the automatic categories are too broad.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"Love this update and everything you and the team do for Archidekt! As always this platform continues to be the best platform for deck building and card collection. I love it and use it daily so never stop! \n\nA suggestion for a feature I mentioned months ago (might even be a year ago at this point) that I’d personally like to see is sub categories within main categories. For example I have all my Instant cards and I want to keep them under “Instant” but would also want to have them in a sub-category like “Exile” or “Card Draw”. I love the category feature and use it a lot but sometimes while making a deck I’ll organize my cards for specific categories but then will switch them back to their original categories. I do enjoy the multi-select feature as that makes it much easier to move a ton of cards to a category all at once. I’m probably in this boat alone but I personally do think it’s be a neat feature to have!\n"}]}
