  I had an idea as I was making a recent post series.

  Would it be possible to group posts into a series? You could create a series with a name and then add individual posts to it. What this would do is add a simple link table to all other posts in the series, or create a next/previous icon at the bottom of the post. It would also make it easier to create summary posts as you could simply create a preformatted link table.

  Then you could also have a most popular series widget to go with it.

  Would this be possible? Do people think it’s a good idea? Or am I just stupid and it exists already?!

  You could create the series with Categories. Then a click on that category would bring up all the related posts. It would only require proper naming and heirarchy of Categories such as:

  Posts in Series (Parent Category)
  Series Title #1 (Child Category) Series Title #2 (Child Category)

  And then assign the appropriate category to each post.
