Title: Shows grouped user fields
Post by: HS-1 on June 11, 2026, 12:51:16 AM
Hi,
Can I also group the shows into user fields, like when I enter a date?
When I create a user field in the database, it does not appear in the show menu.

Thx

Custom fields are only for songs, not for shows.

What specifically are you trying to accomplish?

I just want a database with all the songs. One level below that, several bands. And one level below that again, the shows for each band.

Database (with all songs) -> Band 1 -> Show 1
                                                          -> Show 2
                                                          -> ...
                                        -> Band 2 -> Show 1
                                                        -> Show 2
                                                        -> ...

Because:
With one database per band, I always have to enter the same songs multiple times.

If you're using a song with multiple bands, you can enter it once, then copy it to another database with the copy button on the song edit page.

If you migrate to BandHelper, the structure and terminology are a little different. You can have multiple projects in one account, and then you can assign songs to multiple projects. In that case, you don't have separate copies of a song that you have to maintain separately. More info is here:
