Summary0003408: Find more from same fails: ==> only show active nodes
DescriptionFind more from x fails in several cases:
-If the user has disabled a node (e.g. if Year is disabled, then find more from same year fails)
-If the user uses Artist node instead of Artist & Album Artist node
-If the user uses Album Artist node instead of Artist & Album Artist node

In addition, it's unavailable for:
-Composer
-Conductor
-Artist
-Album Artist

I can suggest 3 ways of resolving this:
a) Quick Hack:
-Add Composer to find more from same
-If user tries to find more from same artist, return results in whichever node is available in the following order Artist & Album Artist, Artist, Album Artist
-Live with the limitation that it doesn't work for nodes that aren't available.

b) Quick fix:
-Use 'Search' to generate the results in cases where the node is disabled

c) other fix:
Only show 'Find more from same' for nodes that appear in the current view (e.g. if 'Composer' isn't active, then don't show 'Find more from same composer'.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build1071

I would suggest to implement c) and in case of Artist don't care about the fact that artist can be in a node that is hidden (i.e. implement a) for this matter, which actually means to not implement anything here).

So, c) should be implemented.

Done. Will be in 1070.

Tested 1070. It mostly works, however:

If Artist & Album Artist node is shown ---> Find more from same Artist appears
If Artist node is shown ---> nothing appears

We should probably change this so that:

If Artist & Album Artist node is shown ---> Find more from same Artist & Album Artist
If Artist node is shown ---> Find more from same Artist

I've changed it : Find more from artist is visible when A&AA or A node is visible.
