Title: Images Album and Sub Album in Theatre Vieu
Post by: Jake81 on March 09, 2013, 03:23:56 am

Hello,

One of our clients ask me about the possibility to use in an Image Album a Sub Album.

For example:
Album: Holidays
Sub Album: Holiday Spain 2008
Sub Album: Holiday Spain 2012

So he can make a choice in the Album Holiday between his several holiday image Albums in Theater View.

Greets,

Jacky

This is a similar issue to the boxed set conundrum that we get for CDs and DVDs.

The simple answer is that you just create an additional tag called Sub Album, and populate it as you wish.

You will then need to configure your Theater View views to add this as a new category/level underneath Album.

If your Sub Album names are all going to contain essentially the same verbage, you might consider going about this in a different way.

You can use the stock Album field:

   Album: Holiday Spain 2008
   Album: Holiday Spain 2012

and use a higher level category that presents Album's that start with the word "Holiday", and show "Spain 2008", "Spain 2012", etc.
