Use series_synonym if series_title isn't found #9

I've been wondering if it's possible to use _seriessynonym for search if flexget doesn't find anything using _seriestitle. I want this because sometimes MAL uses incorrect/alternate titles for some animes, Gakkou Gurashi! is one example.

Also, thanks for your plugin.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

This is a good idea, and I think I actually did this in my development version I just haven't cleaned it up for a commit.

I'll try to commit it to master when I get back home, I think I never saved it outside of where I'm using it.

In the meantime, you can redefine the series after import.

#use plugin
configure_series:
  from:
    myanymelist:
      username: 'your username'
#add additional names
series:
  - Gakkou gurashi:
      alternate_name: Gakkougurashii!

Known issues: Second seasons may have the same title as alternate names, easiest solution is to remove previous season from database.

Even with alternate titles groups like horriblesubs use completely different name (Owari no Seraph: Nagoya - Seraph of the End S2), you can still add an name as mentioned above.

Shows may change spelling mid way: you either remove the old name and start again or add it as an alternate name.
