Add custom data to table database

[vbousquet]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I keep a bunch of variants of the same table in a variety of situations (kids/adult version with adjusted difficulty, timestamps of my work in progress tables to be able to compare them, variants with customized options in the script of the table,...). For the time being, the only way to identify them and have different medias is to use different names/company/year. It would be nice to have a way to specify custom data on the table and then use it in the media search.

Describe the solution you'd like A direct solution would be to have a 'variant' field in the table datas and use it for media search (for example adding it at the end of the media name like this 'table name (company year) [variant]').

A more generic solution would be to add a custom (or user) field that the user fill in to his liking, and then the user add a custom script for managing the medias or other processing he would like (filtering,...).

Another solution, similar to the previous, would be to add the possibility to add custom 'tags' on tables, and then the user would use a custom script to handle the medias.

Describe alternatives you've considered Since at the core, you need to be able to add these informations to the table, I tried using the existing fields;

• use a modified name or company: that works but it is not clean. That's what I am doing at the moment.
• use categories: that works but this is not usable since this more or less break the category feature (all the tags ends up in the category list).
• I do not see other field that would make sense to be used for this purpose

I like this idea. For me, I'd like to add an author tag.

Best would be, if it also appears in the table info box.
