## Separators
@ -63,6 +228,54 @@ By default, most metadata files use separators to denote different sections of c
Almost every default metadata file has a `collection_section` attribute. These attributes determine the order of the various sections and can be set by [customizing your config](#customizing-configs).
For example: `collection_section:01` translates to `sort_title: "!<<collection_section>><<pre>><<order_<<key>>>><<sort>>"` and so for `genre.yml` if you have a `Fantasy` collection, plex is going to show `!06_Fantasy`
Configs can be customized using the `template_variables` attribute when calling the file. These `template_variables` will be given to every template call in the file which allows them to affect how that file runs.
