| | Posted: | | | | Under the menu heading "Genre", you have a failed attempt by the program to slot your movies into various categories. Is there a way to change the programs selections, and enter your own into each category? Any advice would be appreciated, so thank you in advance!  |

| | Posted: | | | | It's the profile editor again.
(Button "General") | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| | Posted: | | | | So if I want to move a movie to a different classification, for example:- Comedy to Musical....I would have to alter each one individually? But I cannot see any way under the "General" tab to move a movie from one Genre to another? |

If you doubleclick on the profile the profile editor opens In the left panel click on "General" In the lower left corner of the main-panel you will find the "Genre"-section. If the default genres don't suffice, feel free to generate new ones (custom genres are not contributable). | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!

| | Posted: | | | | Once you've set the Genres to your liking, don't forget to lock down the Genre field in order to prevent it from being overwritten by profile updates (DVD / Lock / Genres). |

| | Posted: | | | | I have added seven genres to my copy of the profiler.
Biographical,
Espionage,
History,
Lectures,
Neo Noir,
Mystery,
Reality-TV.
I have been thinking of adding more, example Collections for multiple movies under one title.
And also added two lists, misc. and lectures.
I keep all lists except the Whist List locked because the update process is broad.
I have added a number of tags;
just a few examples:
Shipped,
under TV Series: Completed,
Box Set
- Grand Parent,
- Child,
- Parent Level One
- Parent Level Two | | | We don't need stinkin' IMDB's errors, we make our own.

Any advice would be appreciated, so thank you in advance! Just so we are clear, the program does not assign genres. This is a user built database so it's other users, like yourself, that decided those were the appropriate genres. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | Don't take it personaly, he has the habbit to respond to all threads in the New Users Forum including to the one or two very obvious spammers who find the way to the forums every month.
And by the way those threads were deleted, you don't have to ask everyone whether the threadstarter is a spammer or not... | | |

My suggestion would be, since you are now authorized to use the other threads, to continue posting wherever appropriate, and you will continue to get help from the community.
