Hello everyone !
Let me explain myself.
I want to make a video game related website. The achitecture should be (we are 4 and we all agree about that) like this :
- Games
- Video Game (like "Metal Gear : Solid")
- Test
- Video
- News
Like that each game is on unique thing, to wich we attribute several stuffs : Game type(s), Saga (Metal Gear for my example), platform, etc...
The first idea I had was to make a category for each tag : Types, Sagas, Platforms, etc...
Then, I make a Snippet to call every sub-elements of thoses categories in a TV, shown in a radio button form.
Problem, I can’t make things work when there are multiple types, or platforms (no need to say I’d like to make those element clickable in order to navigate with them). They display in a chain of IDs, with no "," between them so I can’t make it work.
Does anyone have a solution, or do I misconcepted my stuff ?
Thanks.
PS : If it’s simpler in Revolution, I can start back on it, the website is not this advanced.

If you’ll be using a TV with multiple items, use a "delimited list" output widget (usually using a , for the delimiter) then your processing snippet will have something to work with in separating the items (with explode() for example).
something like here?

I made a snippet which gets all tags from tvs and creates dropdowns from them. They can also be depending of each other as you can see.
Since there are a lot of resources and TVs to search it tooks very long to generate the dropdowns dynamically.
So I wrote a module which copies all relevant TVs to one table for searching.
Now it runs a lot faster.
