Passage Guide Template Question

I am trying to create a passage guide that has only 6-7 commentaries (ACCS, NICNT/OT, WBC, Tyndale, .EBC, Lange, Classic Commentaries). 

On the passage guide template I can choose either one collection or all my commentaries.  It looks to me like the only way to do what I want is to create a collection of all the commentaries then I can choose that collection.  Is this the best way to make this work or is there an easier way?

As a suggestion, an easier way would be to list all the commentary series and have a check box where the user can choose as many or as few commentaries they want in their passage guide template.

Thanks

    This is the easiest way to do it.

    As a detail, you can have as many "Commentary Collections" as you wish but if you are wanting just 6-7 commentaries it probably makes sense to just use one.

    One option for Passage Guide is creating a collection for each commentary series plus one collection for desired set of 6-7 commentaries, then add a commentary section for desired set along with adding collection sections for each commentary series (that can find cross references to passage being studied).

    As a suggestion, an easier way would be to list all the commentary series and have a check box where the user can choose as many or as few commentaries they want in their passage guide template.

    The Cited By tool has check boxes for collections, series, and mytags.
