Index Artwork

This could mean that indexArtwork could get very unwieldy, with (potentially) hundreds of image files in the same folder. Would it be possible for the search to include subfolders?

There is a new feature in MinimServer update 219 that uses subfolders to enable the use of multiple images for the same tag value (see post #25). Because subfolders are now used for this purpose, it would be difficult to also use subfolders as you have suggested.

Quote:The other point relates to the section on Index Artwork in the User Guide. I found out by trial and error that the image file name has to be the same as the sort value, at least when using the [tag]/[tag]Sort method of displaying pages. Thus, if the entry is sorted, say, using ComposerSort in surname order ("Bach, Johann Sebastian"), but the display name is shown, using Composer, with first name or initials first ("Johann Sebastian Bach"), the image file name has to be "Bach, Johann Sebastian.jpg". I don't use the reverseName tag option, so I am not sure what the rule is in that case. But it would be helpful if the User Guide could clarify which file name is to be used in instances of this kind.

I am surprised to hear this. I would expect the index display value to be used, not the index sort value. I will investigate and post back here when I have more information.
