I need to modify the movie page template to display which chapters reference that specific movie. I’ll likely repurpose some existing code, adjusting it to work with the appropriate ACF fields. This will probably pull from a “Movie Referenced” or similar field attached to each chapter. It’s okay if this content isn’t fully populated until the entire chapter migration is complete—it will be satisfying to know that, once done, these pages will be automatically filled with existing, relevant content. This logic can also be reused for book pages, since movies and books share similar navigation structures, cover sizes, and CSS rules. Another consideration is whether I need individual director pages—some may warrant it, but it’s not essential yet. Movies will likely have either a manual bio field or a short wiki-style summary. Also, I want to allow some CPTs to have a featured quote or lyric. For example, I could select one lyric to display for artists. This could also apply to movies or even video games, like Bioshock, Prey, or Control, which offer philosophically rich quotes—but that’s a separate future task.
