Update of my reading list

I took the opportunity to use a Kirby field now to me: Toggles:

So far, I've given a classic five-star rating using a range slider. As I mentioned in my note, I often found it difficult to decide on a number.

Now I have four options:

1. I don't recommend it
2. I kind of liked it
3. I liked it a lot
4. It's a definite favorite

The difference may not be that big, but the visualization makes rating easier because it's not an abstract number on a constantly changing scale.

The nice thing about the Toggles field: I can keep my old ratings; the available values are now interpreted as strings but saved unchanged as numbers. So I only had to change the field, without having to fill all the books with new data.

Since I could previously rate from 0 to 5 and now only 0, 3, 4, and 5 (because those are the most common), I had to add a few fallbacks for old ratings to the page. But that wasn't a problem.

This is what my field configuration looks like now:

rating:
    label: Rating
    type: toggles
    labels: false
    grow: false
    width: 1/4
    options:
        - value: '0'
          text: schlecht
          icon: protected
        - value: '3'
          text: gut
          icon: circle-half
        - value: '4'
          text: Sehr gut
          icon: circle-filled
        - value: '5'
          text: Favorit
          icon: star-filled

I then made a few visual adjustments to the page. The large block at the bottom of the page had been too clunky for a while:

I reduced it, it now looks similar to the actions under blog posts:

In the process, I also made a few bug fixes for the internal links, etc., and removed the year-based breakdown from some views.

I'm quite happy with it for now. We'll see how long it lasts.
