Auto-import songtitle from original to cover #1328

Open andreoda opened 3 years ago

andreoda commented 3 years ago

Requested/Feedback of the survey: "When creating a cover entry, the name fields get auto-populated after selecting the original song."

Corresponding to https://github.com/VocaDB/vocadb/issues/1329 just with the song title. Could be very useful since it takes some of the "human" work away.

FWIW, I remember (not sure where) @riipah rejecting the idea of inheriting names from originals in the same manner as lyrics.

Detailed implementation logic:

When a new song entry is created and some original version is specified, if the entry has only one of the three title fields filled (Non-English, Romanized or English), and if that title matches the corresponding title on the original entry, the other two (or one) titles should be copied to the remix/cover/etc song entry. Aliases could probably be ignored.

I don't think I ever said it shouldn't be done, but I didn't consider it worth the effort. And it's not mandatory to manually copy all translations from original to cover. The song can always be found through the original version.

@szc126 Do you mean this one?

@ycanardeau That's the one!
