Multiple Ignore Sort tags - dround - 29-08-2016 10:03
Hello Forum,
I hope somebody might be able to assist with this tagging query. I have successfully applied a single ignore sort tag as below for 'The' in Album and Artist titles etc. I also want to apply an ignore tag for say Albums with a title such as 'The Best of' and 'The Very Best of' so that the sort truncates this text in the Album or similar tags.
Applying the logic of the syntax below I have have tried adding additional text strings such as
Album.ignore.sort={The, The Best of, The Very Best of} and also Album.ignore.sort={The, Best of, Very Best of} and other variants. None of these seem to work as the function only seems to apply on the first string and no others. Is this possible or am I doing something wrong.
Many thanks in anticipation.
David
Artist.ignore.sort={The} and AlbumArtist.ignore.sort={The} and Album.ignore.sort={The}

The "ignore" match is considered successful on the first match in a left-to-right order. You can get what you want by changing the order, for example:
Album.ignore.sort={The Best of, The Very Best of, The}

Thank you Simon,
I've tried this but it doesn't seem to work. This is syntax I have used in tag options. I am now getting 'The' ignored so 'The Beatles', The Best of the Door' etc are all sorted under 'The'.
Kind regards,
David
Album.sortTags={Album, Artist}, AlbumArtist.ignore.sort={The Very Best of, The, Best of, The }, Artist.ignore.sort={The Very Best of, The, Best of, The}, Album.ignore.sort={The Very Best of, The, Best of, The}

It appears you haven't done what I suggested:
Album.ignore.sort={The Best of, The Very Best of, The}
Instead, you have done:
Album.ignore.sort={The Very Best of, The, Best of, The}

Thanks Simon,
Don't know what I am doing wrong but have amended it again and I am getting the same problem. This is the text I have in Tag Options now.
Album.sortTags={Album, Artist}, Album.ignore.sort={The Best of, The Very Best of, The}, AlbumArtist.ignore.sort={The Best of, The Very Best of, The}, Artist.ignore.sort={The Best of, The Very Best of, The}
Thanks
