Allow multiple scrobbles of an individual track from an album

Open ENDrain opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe Currently, when you scrobble an individual track from an album by pressing "Scrobble" button against a track, the button becomes inactive and its text is replaced with the tick mark. It's impossible to scrobble this individual track again until the page is refreshed.

Describe the solution you'd like Allow to scrobble individual tracks multiple times.

Describe alternatives you've considered Scrobbling button shouldn't become inactive upon first scrobble.

  • Button text might change to "Scrobble again" upon first scrobble.
  • Button text might still change to tick mark upon first scrobble, but should not grey out and should change back to "Scrobble" on hover.

This is by design, to avoid spam-clickers, accidents and also to have a way to track which tracks were already scrobbled.

Before allowing a "scrobble again" button (through either of the methods you suggest), I should implement a button that disables itself after click for X seconds and "reloads" graphically so users can wait for it to be available again.

Another (not friendly) tweak to avoid spammers would be disabling one track until you scrobble something else, but I can already imagine how impractical it would be.

I didn't consider spammers! I think the time-outing button would be enough to allow flexibility while warding off spammers at the same time.
