Creating Sets from the Server
Instead of uploading content to a Set through the browser, sets can be created directly from files found on the Server. This is ideal for when you have a lot of files that need to be added to a set, or a lot of content already filmed that needs to be added to multiple sets.
Directories on the Server
The first thing you'll see when clicking the tab is the folder that was configured when the CMS was installed. This folder, called /cms_incoming/, can be found in the www/cms_images/ directory if it is in the same location as your NATS installation.
It is within this directory that you will upload folders with images and videos so that you can view and create a set without having to upload content through the browser.
Videos or photos uploaded directly to the /cms_imcoming/ directory will not be recognized, so ensure that they are within a folder.
Creating a Set From Server
Clicking the dropdown arrow will display all the files in the folder.
Once you've clicked the "Create a Set" button, a modal will be displayed where you can configure some base settings for a Set.
Name - The name of the set.
Description - Field for the description of the set.
Content Server - The content server to place the content in once it has been processed.
Path - The path on the server to the directory from which the set will be created.
Directory Details - The contents of the directory that will be used to create the set.
Once you've clicked "Add", the set will be created. You can follow the same process as any other set.
Already Created Sets
Once a set has been created from a directory on the Server, it will be denoted by a star symbol on the file, as well as have the "Go to set" button to go directly to the set.
