[Solved] Sub genre within main genre

Post by Not_tech_savy »

So like Metal as main which includes all of the sub genres such as heavy metal, deathcore, the various other sub genres that don't have metal in the name. So click metal and if you set it up (which sub belongs in which main) you can then click through sub genres or just the artists. ( I do have an auto-playlist setup for this) It'd just be nice to go to genre tab click a genre and see what all it has spawned.
if one of y'all has the time I'd appreciate it. (if it happens, maybe in hover menu make it clear Y'all aren't the ones assigning genres. Geeze some people its like you've insulted the very core of their identity lol... I'm one of those people Disturbed will never be metal!)
Thanks

If you go to a Genre sub-node you will notice that it has a specialist View named Grid Categories.

I have slagged it off a few times here, saying it seems a part implemented confusing thought bubble, and nobody has come back all hurt and wounded with explanation, so maybe they agree with me?

I don't know what it is trying to do for me ... but maybe this is what you are looking for?

Not entirely sure what you said there, but I'll check out grid categories. I also happened to double click a genre and it brought up info about said genre and shows related ones. So that works for me
