To display a note, set its visibility to “public.” The corresponding detail page will automatically update, and the note text will appear in a newly added "Notes" section, while the note type remains private.

You can include specific dates or broader time periods to highlight key milestones, such as an artist’s creative phases.

The agent detail page has undergone several enhancements in recent releases. To maintain a clear and structured layout, we have reorganized it into distinct sections:

Dividing the growing agent detail page into these sections makes navigation more intuitive, allowing you to focus on the most relevant information in each area. By organizing information in respective sections, the agent detail page now presents information more clearly, making it easier to find and interact with key details.

Capturing name variations is key part for precise cataloging. The updated name structure expands the agent name functionality for more accurate documentation and alternate display styles depending on context.

The agent names have been extended with multiple new fields to capture more details and name variations. Most importantly, the field is used for sorting accurately and render bibliographic entries according to the Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS).

On the agent detail pages you will find the extended section for an agent's name entries. This new table view provides a detailed overview of the captured data and offers support in filling in missing fields.

The new inverted name field that is available for each agent name entry is crucial for accurate bibliographic rendering and sorting by author name.

Whenever an inverted name is given for an author, it will automatically be used in the bibliography display of a publication. If no inverted name is provided, the normal order will be displayed instead.
