Is there a way to add additional "sections" to my anime/manga list?

I'm not really sure how to articulate my question. When I say "sections", I'm referring to these type of headings.


Basically, I was wondering if someone who's more "code savvy" knows of a way that I can add an additional section to my list (possibly in the place of the "type" section, since it's pretty useless anyway, LOL).

I'm fully expecting someone to tell me that it's impossible, but I thought I'd ask anyway in case someone can (hopefully) prove me wrong. :P

um...yea, but you don't need code to do it, sure you can code a custom column in, you didn't say what you wanted to be added, and some things you can imagine to add wouldn't be possible, but you pick those "sections" from here https://myanimelist.net/editprofile.php?go=listpreferences

^ Yeah, I was aware of that option (although it completely slipped my mind that I could use it to remove the "Type" section, so thanks), but it doesn't quite have what I'm looking for. Thanks anyway. :)

I think it's possible to change the section text with css right?

^ Yep, you can change the section text. :) I know someone who's changed the text on their list, so I could probably ask for their help if I really had to, LOL.

I'm more interested in adding a new section if that makes sense? Essentially, I want to make a copy of the "Tags" section, where I can include a section listing my favorite character in a series. (I'm aware that there is a way to extend the tags, which would probably accomplish the same thing, but I just want my list to look just a little bit more unique. :P)

Either way, I appreciate you trying to help me out. :)

If you extend the tags, that new extended tag could be your favorite character. Then you move it to the right with the codes in the topic,



position: absolute;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-left: -360px;



and move it to another empty column like Storage. Then you change Storage's name to "Favorite Character". You can also use the custom text codes.

You could do all this with Inspect Element too, there's a video for it on my channel.


That changes Storage's name.

.list-table .list-table-header .header-title.storage a{
font-size: 0px;
}
.list-table .list-table-header .header-title.storage a:after{
content: "TEXT";
font-size: 22px;
}

Thanks so much! This is exactly what I was looking for! :D I actually recently added the "Storage" section to my profile with the specific intention of eventually renaming it to "Favorite Character", LOL.
