the only way to have a partial list is using a module, populating the albums manually.

you cannot have 2 instances of MC installed in one site.

Thanks Germi for the quick reply

Could you advise more on which module and how this would link to the sub menu

Kind Regards

If you know some basic html and css, you could create these type of lists and menu items with the same look and feel as MC.

I did something similar to this to show just an artists discography without showing their bio on top. I ended up just looking at the output source code from my browser of an existing page in MC that I wanted to copy. I then created a new joomla article, turned on limited html support and added the code with some tweaks to the article. This way I could deal with it as html instead of php.

For example, this page, http://www.kevinbluemel.com/music uses very similar code from the artists page so that it would match MC other pages. Basically a copy of the MC page http://www.kevinbluemel.com/about without the bio info and some cleaned up css.

Not the most efficient way of doing it but it works. Another downside is the code is static, so anytime I want to make a change to the list, I have to edit the code in the article manually. I could probably fix this by doing it in php and allowing php to run in the article, but I decided against it for security issues as well as it was overkill for what I am using the page for.

Thanks for that greengeek

I am really trying to have a subset of my collection which includes books i have.

For example i have started using articles with showalbum_id to list the UK's No 1 albums since inception. This works OK, the problem is i have other books which are biography/discography based. So I would probably need showartist_id as well. I don't think this is possible yet.

That is the UK Albums page. I need to figure out a way of putting a bio and discography together and cant figure it out. This is all new, lol.
