Hello,

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

It would be a good option to make subsections or subfolders in the PMS, like follow.

Is it possible to make subsections like, FILMS---\>AUGUST---\>for KIDS

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ----\>for ADULTS ...etc.

If it's able, it will be good to chooose for the sub sections different scanners, like tvshows, for kids, and film scanner for adults, etc.

I would like to ask min. two level deep subsystem, but it's perfect if its multiple level.

&nbsp;

You **can** create multiple movies sections, this will allow using different scanner etc.

You **cannot** create one movie section and sub divide it.

Don't know if thats what you're after?

I know what I **can** and what I **cannot** do.

That's why I made a decision to write here, in the dev. forum, to make an advise what I looking for in the next version.

this should not go into the dev forum, but into the&nbsp;[Feature & Bug Voting](http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/forum/120-feature-bug-voting/ "Feature & Bug Voting")&nbsp;forum.

Little harsh my friend, i was only making sure you knew the current implementation incase it suited your requirements or you didn't understand it.
