Additionally, it would be useful to display the id after the entry. I have 2 bands called Arise, when selecting who a release or video belongs to I have no idea which Arise to select.

Question: Would it be possible to make it so any release or video added to their respective catalogues is added to the performer catalogue automatically. Having to update the links on all 3 catalogues to group is a bit tedious. Or are catalogues unsuitable for what I want to achieve here. I did think about making a music module, ideally wanted to to it into galleries for videos and images, but there are no tutorials to help me with that (the automatic creation of galleries not listed like the downloads module does). I am assuming it would be easier overall to use what Composr currently offers, but I wanted to check with you if catalogues are the way to go about this, or should I be thinking of making a module? Uploaded progress.png to give you an idea of what I am trying to do. I want to add News and Events too (ideally from News module and Calendar). Did some templating before when I was seeing if this would work out, so I know I can make it look how I want, just really not sure if I can make it act how I need.

"Would it be possible to make it so any release or video added to their respective catalogues is added to the performer catalogue automatically"

I couldn't answer that without knowing what "added to the performer catalogue automatically" entails. The tracker isn't the right place for that discussion though.

Sorting is done based on selection order. Selection order is necessarily the same as display order within the selection list. The order within the selection list is based on date. So I agree, that's not great, and there should be a field option to specify this better. That field option should probably not just define sorting before display, but also the displayed order within the selection list.

Okay, I just meant that when I added an item to a catalogue (ie, audio, video) that it would be reflected in the parent catalogue (Performer) without me having to go in there and select it from what would end up being a massive unordered list of Performers. I will desist from discussing it further, just not sure of the capabilities of catalogues and whether this is feasible.

There's no such thing as a parent catalogue, so I'm a bit confused.

The best place to discuss this is the forum, as you can then go into full detail on what you're doing, without it getting mixed in with a tracker item.

You may be asking if you can set up catalogues A and B, such that A has a multi-reference into B, and when you add a new entry to B you would be able to select an entry in A, such that it automatically sets an additional reference in the multi-reference from that entry in A to that new entry in B. i.e. to be able to set the relationship backwards. No way to do it, but it's an interesting idea, I'll add an issue for it.

That's exactly what I was asking :)

I've alphabetised it at least for now.

Thank you.
