Multiple Prequel/Sequel Option

I'd like the option of being able to have more than one prequel or sequel show up in the orange bar up top.

Well, I mean, do stories really have more than one prequel or sequel?

Or do you mean, say it's a trilology, then the second and third stories would show up as sequels to the first one? Something like that?

I have a story with two sequels. There's a oneshot that takes place between two of the chapters and another story that takes place at the end of the last chapter.

There is also the possibility that someone may write a story and then write individual sequels about different characters in the story. [Non-personal example.]

Oh okay, I understand now.

I don't think I'd ever need it, but I don't see any harm in having it, so I'm for it.

This is something I could definitely see myself using because I write a lot of companion oneshots for stories, and those oneshots usually end up having multiple prequels or sequels, so it would be nice if they would all show up instead of just the one.

I think if you have a lot, it might be too much to have on just that one bar, so maybe if you have more than one prequel/sequel, it could be on a new page, like how the Characters and all have their own page? Like that, and it just has the links to the other prequels/sequels. (Does that make sense? O.o)

^Like instead of "This story is a sequel of [Title]" it said "This story is part of the [Collection]", and then it took you to that collection? Or actually, it would need to be something different from collections – like, "universe", or something.

But yeah, I like that idea.

Yeah, it wouldn't work with collections for me because I have collections by rating/pairing/status/etc. I see where you're going though.

Yeah, I see where you're going. I don't think "collections" is the right word, but yeah, like that. And then it would have it's own page when you view the story. Like where all the links are at the top - characters, summery, subscription, etc. - and there would be a link to view the multiple prequels/sequels.

Which would really only be necessary to have on the stories with more than one sequel/prequel and would also be nice for series in general, I think.

I like the idea, maybe there could be an option on the story is set to 'Part of a Trilogy' or 'Part of a Franchise' and then be set out like;

Story > Prequel > Prequel

sort of thing?
