Hello! I've been looking into integrating the manga recommendations into TachiyomiSY via the API. That app already s recommendations from Anilist and MAL and uses a thumbnail grid to display them. 102w44

The issue I'm running into is that I want to retrieve the thumbnail for each recommendation but the API only includes the ID, title, URL and weight.

Of course, I could separately send requests to /series/{id} for each recommendation but that seems kinda wasteful and slow.

So I was wondering if there's a better way to do this. Maybe there could be an endpoint for a "batch ID lookup"? Then I could a list of series ids and receive multiple items in one request, like the /series/search endpoint does for text queries.

So you'd like the recommendations returned from a series to also have the thumbnail or image information?

Hello again, thanks for the help last few times

I wanted to report a broken link to faq on error page about titles that have their year data locked

In my case in particular, I came across this manga:

https://mangaupdates.conexionsite.com/series/36ifvtv/jittan-no-jitan-recipe

Which you can see has the Year marked Locked

Clicking on Locked takes you to an Error page with the following message:

This field is locked. You do not have permission to edit it. 

Reason: <!--url_type_4.5--><a href='http://mangaupdates.conexionsite.com/faq.html?cid=7#item52'><u>"Year" Series Field</u></a><!--url_type_4_end--><BR>

Which looks like broken html along with a broken link. The correct url would be: https://mangaupdates.conexionsite.com/site/faq/7#item52

Alternatively, it might just need a fix to the html + redirecting old faq links to new faq links (I'd prefer this alternative but I leave it up to you)

PS. I'm not sure if it affects other cases of Locked things, I don't come across it that often

Thanks again! -curche

Q1: Not directly api related, but any way to filter those without any year value? Q2: Any way to filter based on addition date or last update date? Thanks

Hello. If possible could you add not_scanlated filter to the /series/search endpoint?
I can currently achieve this with two requests and a single line of code, but having this as a built-in filter would be incredibly helpful. There’s no rush at all —I'd just be really grateful if it’s ever added. Thank you in advance!
