Does anybody know how to copy information from one category (e.g., WORK) to another (e.g., MOVEMENTNAME or GROUPING) more quickly (context down below)? Doing it manually is going to take an eternity, so any help would be greatly appreciated. [image]

It probably has to be the other way round: To copy WORK to CONTENTGROUP Convert>Tag-Tag for field CONTENTGROUP Format string: %work% I am not sure what your intentions are with $meta_sep()

It's also in First Steps → Copying one Field to another Field using Convert → Tag - Tag.

I tried it, but it simply erased the WORK field. What did I do wrong? [image]

Yes, it's the other way round: you first select the target field and reference the source field(s) in the format string. I've updated the example in the documentation to make this a little clearer.

How to copy one field value to another field? Example how to copy the content of the ARTIST field to the ALBUMARTIST field: Create a new action in an existing action group or make a new action group. Action type: Format value Field: ALBUMARTIST Format string: %artist% Note: If you want to copy all possible values of a field (in case you have multiple artist fields), the internal scripting function $meta_sep can be used in the format string, e.g., $meta_sep(artist,\\\\)
