#

we need a lot more info other than a screenshot, please

#

like "can't seem to get collections to show", does help at all if you have not provided your config and log

#

that screenshot is only part of the file i assume. you reference a template, but without seeing the rest of the file and / or config / meta.log

#

if the movies screenshot you posted, is all it contains then you are for sure missing some stuff

#

and please post code rather than screenshots

Using Code Blocks

Please use code blocks when sending any code-related text (such as error messages or configuration file extracts.)

The Grave Accent key (`) is used to define code blocks and is typically found to the left of the number 1 key on a standard keyboard.

See the below sample text and output for basic code block text.

YOU TYPE THIS

`​`​`hello`​`​`

hello

If you are posting any yaml-formatted text (such as collections), you can give your code block YAML formatting. See the below sample text and output

YOU TYPE THIS

`​`​`yaml
collections:
  Documentaries:
    smart_filter:
      all:
        genre: Documentary
`​`​`

DISCORD DISPLAYS

collections:
  Documentaries:
    smart_filter:
      all:
        genre: Documentary

or please attach your movies.yml

#

then there is for sure going to be something in your error log

#

please post your logs

#

you're (1) not telling pmm that you have a collection, (2) you are using a template, but not defining the template in your file

#

you would need something like what i have on mine is this: ```yaml
templates:
#####################################

Custom Collection Templates

#####################################
Holiday:
smart_label: title.asc
summary: "A timed collection of <<holiday>> movies and other movies that may relate to the holiday. NOTE: this collection will automatically disappear once the holiday period is over."
delete_not_scheduled: true
sort_title: ' !AA'
run_again: true
visible_home: true
visible_shared: true
sync_mode: sync

collections:
#####################################

Holiday Collections

#####################################
Halloween:

#

you did leave out a good important chunk

fierce thorn

#

The part I showed you above

fierce thorn

#

not really

#

the remainder of yours references several variables in a template file that you have not defined.

#

if you are going to copy and paste, then please make sure you are copying and pasting the ENTIRE template header. Because the default you are copying used "key", also references the templates.yml. so this may patially work, but will create several errors when you try to run it

#

i've modified mine from the default, so mine works. But your pasting what you had to my initial setup will not work

#

this is what i have in entirety for halloween:

templates:
#####################################
#    Custom Collection Templates    #
#####################################
  Holiday:
    smart_label: title.asc
    summary: "A timed collection of <<holiday>> movies and other movies that may relate to the holiday. NOTE: this collection will automatically disappear once the holiday period is over."

    sort_title: ' !AA'
