| | Posted: | | | | I have searched the forum and didn't find anything. What I would like if there is a possibillity to search within the dividers. If you have all the x-files dvd's and you are looking for a spesific episode you know the name of, but you can't remember the season, it would be neat to search for that episode in dividers, and presto, there it is  | | | "What's God?"

| | Posted: | | | | I've often wished you could search on the cast/crew list for a specific person. We can use filters to tell me all the profiles in which John Doe appears, but if it's a long cast list, it's hard to find him in that list -- and it often invoves a lot of scrolling, especially if it's a parent TV profile John Doe's in and he's in an episode near the end of the list.
Since a divider is like a special type of person, if we could do a search in the cast/crew list we could probably find either a person or an episode title.
I think this is a good idea. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

Why not the search the episode title via overview search where according to the contribution rules a simple episode list may exist? That's true, but since the dividers came, most of the episodes listings are removed from the overview.. | | | "What's God?"

I think this is a good idea. If they also could highlight the persones we're looking for in TV profiles, and have a shortcut i.e ctrl+N to find the next place he/she is listed would also be great. | | | "What's God?"

| | Posted: | | | | They already highlight the person in the filter, but only at the main screen. When you edit the profile, the person is NOT highlighted - so you must look for him manually -- or remember where he was before you opened the profile to edit it. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

| | Posted: | | | | I have a plug-in coming soon (perhaps as soon as this week), that will allow you to search dividers. I just searched for "Memento Mori" and it found it on The X-Files: Season 4 and Stargate SG-1: Season 10.  You can also search for people. Right now it won't tell you which divider they're listed under, but it's such a great idea, I'll see if I can't get that feature in before I release it. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

Thanks for the good idea guys! As a reward, he's the plug-in in action showing which episode dividers Erin Chambers appears under.   | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
