This has probably been asked before and I just wasn't paying attention, but I just now noticed that films rated 18 (UK rating) do not show up in my online collection, even though they do in my desktop program.

It seems that they are considered Adult in the online. Is there a setting for the online that I'm missing?

You need to change two settings.

First in DVDP:



Then on the website:

FYI Titles rated 18 in the UK are not necessarily Adult. This includes titles like Django Unchained, Bullet to the Head, Blitz, Subspecies, Death Race (2008), Hobo with a Shotgun, Starship Troopers and many many more.

Correct,
but for DVDProfiler it automatically is.

As a workaround you may want to take Lithurge's suggestion into consideration.

No idea if it's a bug or not, but it's worked that way for as long as I can remember. The other thing I've noticed is titles profiler considers adult never show up in the recent purchases section on my user profiler, even with adult titles allowed in the collection list.

Should just be a case of right clicking the icon which should bring up a list of six options, the bottom two being the ones you want.

So I have to allow adult titles, and then go to each individual adult title and disallow it. That's just plain stupid. Lucky that I don't have very many, then.

To be honest I agree that it's syupid; but for info it's not just the UK that has this problem with 18/R18 - AIUI all localities have the problem where the highest 'normal' rating is considered on the same tier as the proper 'Adult' rating when showing online... I actually asked if it could be changed some time ago in the pre-Invelos era but no joy.

At least we now have the exclusion capability that we didn't back then, which I suppose is an improvement.

You should be able to speed up the process a bit though (I did this for excluding real adult titles from my Android devices; I didn't need to for the online as I keep them in a separate Collection List (so I have Owned, Ordered, Wish List and Adult) which is another option for you.

Filter on Adult genre (all Adult films must have this genre by DVDP Rules) and Collection -> Flags -> Flag All Filtered (manually unflag those that are Adult genre but not 'really' Adult as far as you are concerned).
Then select just Flagged -> Set Exclusions and tick the Hide in online public listing box
Unflag everything and remove the filter
All done

Profiler also considers NC-17, TV-MA and Unrated to be Adult titles. 

What I would like to see the Adult rating broken away from the others, as its own separate rating, rather than grouped with any other.

Restricting Your DVD Profiler Online Collection

DVD Profiler's parental control feature allows you to hide adult profiles. The option to hide titles in your DVD Profiler Online collection is set in the My Profiler->my collection options in the DVD Profiler website.

Although the option to hide or show titles is set in the website, the definition of adult is set in DVD Profiler.

You may choose to change your definition of "adult".

The last sentence links to the descition of how to change your definition of "Adult" in Profiler. So this clearly states that the online should use the definition of "Adult" that you set in Profiler. It doesn't, so I would consider this a bug.
