Hi meme,

I was so enthusiastic about your plugin that I read and tried almost everything described as functionality :-) And even registered in the forum to ask a question :-)
Something I don't understand is how to make collections by two or more columns not making separate collections for each of the columns but making collections which contain both of them. Ok, that was not very clear :-)
I have:
Title1 Auhtor1
Title2 Auhtor1
Title3 Auhtor1 Series1
Title4 Auhtor1 Series1
Title5 Auhtor1 Series2
Title6 Auhtor1 Series2

And what I am trying to achieve, are the following collections:
Author1
Auhtor1 - Series1
Auhtor1 - Series2

The first collection would contain all books which are not in series(Title1 and Title2), the second collection should contain all books with Series1 (Title3 and Title4).... etc
Is that possible just using the plugin? May be I have to make a custom column in the lib containing both Author and Series? And then make collection by this custom column... Or may be there's a better (automatic) way to do that :-) ?
Thank you.
