I've been homebrewing and adding homebrew to my collection a lot more of late, as I prep for a campaign, and I'm constantly running into some frustrations with the "my homebrew collection" page. Here are some things I'd like to see change:
Swap the positions of "author" and "Name" on the filters; Every other filter page for listings, whether official or homebrew, has the Name field in the leftmost position. I am constantly typing in the name of a monster or other thing I want to find the "Author" field and turning up no results because of this discrepancy.
Fix the sort by last modified issue (reported a day or two ago)
Figure out a way to add columns once the Type field is set so, for example, the CR for monsters can be seen without having to open up the entry
Similarly, figure out a way to sort by type specific fields when a particular type is chosen (CR, spell level, etc.)
Also similarly, show advanced filters when a specific type is set
Include a toggle/setting to Show only "added" homebrew, and not my own creations. (helpful for thinning things out I forgot I had added)
I realize none of these are likely to be high priority, but I know you value feedbac, so there you have it.

All of that. 👆 I read this and the first thing went through my head was the “I’ll have what she’s having” scene from When Harry met Sally.
