I'm just thinking about a possibility to mark a TV Show as "completed", "deposed" or "continuing".
I have thought to add {*}, {-} or {+} to the title or any other suitable field.
Has anybody a better solution (except adding another new field to the database itself)? |

| I would simply use the CUSTOM4 Field. No Script uses it and it's drop-down, so ideal for it and could easly add this field to the thetvdb script. |

Custom4 is used for repository in the cards...
But as it has to be edited manually it can be used for this aditional info.
On the other hand: in the db itself there is an unused field "simply empty". Maybe Ale can add it as Custom12!?!
In fact we need more Custom fields to really extend XMM's informational functionality.

Does thetvdb.com provide this info? |

For TV Shows many Fields are missing. There is already a Thread with suggestions for new Fields somewhere on this Forum.

It provides the Status: Continuing/Ended |

Just try it - there are already assigned pics to the repository like Spindle, Shelve, CDBox, HDD, etc.

I know it - I mentioned it to remind Ale 
And that tvdb published the info was really new for me. Maybe we can add it to Custom11 as long as there are no new Custom fields... |

Lets merge the fields into _LOCATION_ and show the pic by InsertImages.js. Then _MOVIE_CUSTOMFIELD4_ is free for the show status.
I think that's the best solution.
<td width="207" height="60" class="style20"><div align="center"> <font face="Tahoma" class="fsize1"><span style="font-weight: 400">
<img src="MovieCards/Repository/_MOVIE_CUSTOMFIELD4_.jpg" alt="storage" height="36" border="0"><br>
_LOCATION_</span></font></div></td>

For the User the easiest way probably would be that XMM simply renames the old Database Field Custom4 to a new name and adds a "new" empty Custom4 field. This way all the old Data would be preserved and the "new" Custom4 field would be emptied at the same time. |

Sure, that would be the easiest solution. It would cause a new release AND Ale could add more Custom fields same time.
Then there would be a field for TVShow themes, too. The scripts for MyThemes and TelevisionTunes are already existing (and are included) for nearly 2 years now...
*Edit*
Ale, What do you say? |

It should be a boolean field.
And do you already have thought about adding more custom fields? |
