Hi,
in my website i review also the live performance and it would be useful to have a section to enter this live and have them appear in the list along with reviews of albums. is already possible a similar function?

or be able to insert a reference to an artist in an article.
Tnx

    mmm... why don't you use the REVIEW field on the album/artist to put the links to your live performances reviews?

    the advantatge of the review field is that is a free HTML field... it allows links!

    hello,
    can be a solution but not optimal.

    in version two is possible to provide an appropriate field in artist's tab?
    with the ability to insert multiple links (live can be more than one course)

    serving fields
    LINK (link to article)
    TITLE LINK (venue, date) eg: 100's Club - London - 23 May 2004
    IMAGE-Gallery (link to a possible photo gallery of the event)

    not likely to be included, because this functionality can be achieved pretty much just by the ALBUM item...: just create a new FORMAT of album, called LIVE, and add your live performances into this format

    this is the best way to do it.

    Yes, I tried to do that but then the resulting view does not go very well and especially the live shows I appear in the module of the latest reviews ...

    Is there a way to create a design only for a particular format (in this case, live) and make sure that does not appear in review module and also create a module just for show only live?

    mm unfortunately latest added albms cannot be filtered by format right now, unlike featured albums, wich can.

    to make a layout specific for a format you need some small custom work... you cannot do it directly

    mah ... If I can do an IF in the template, and get the name of the format i can customize my templates without problems and I can modify the latest added module so that filters latest reviews for the format ... right?

    Ok guys, i have created a module that allows you to see the reviews filtered by format.

    Please try and call GERMI to verify that everything is in order, is the first module in joomla I do ;-) [file name=mod_muscol_recently_added_by_format1.zip size=6285]http://www.joomlamusicsolutions.com/images/fbfiles/files/mod_muscol_recently_added_by_format1.zip[/file]


    in the module backend, insert the appropriate format id.
