xd)poll list improvements

[Colind8]

Redo sorting and filter criteria along with adding search criteria. Also restructure how the list is made to make it easier to view for mobile users.

Why it should change?

The current system isn't built on modularity and doesn't take advantage of mySQL's featureset.

New "search criteria" suggestion

Using common search engine functions will probably be an easy way to implement a more advanced sorting, filtering, searching system for the list.

Sorting

sort:criteria - Sorts the list based on the following criteria: newest (default), oldest, leastvoted, mostvoted

Examples:

• xd)poll list sort:oldest
• xd)poll list sort:mostvoted

Filtering

filter:critera,criteria,.. - Filters the list using one or more of the following criteria: none (default), voted, creator, notvoted, notcreator

Examples:

• xd)poll list filter:creator
• xd)poll list filter:voted,creator

Searching

• title:criteria - Searches the list for a title that matches the criteria
• author:criteria - Searches the list for an author that matches the criteria

Examples:

• xd)poll list title:color
• xd)poll list title:would you rather
• xd)poll list author:colind8

All together now

You can use multiple of these functions at once, separated with ?.

Examples:

• xd)poll list sort:oldest?filter:creator?
• xd)poll list filter:creator?title:cake?
• xd)poll list filter:notcreator,notvoted?title:would you rather?sort:mostvoted?
