Uploading Content to Sets
When you upload Content to the CMS, it is stored in your Content Server. This is where all your content is pulled from when visitors view one of your Tours or Member Areas, granted they have access to the Channels a set is published to.
Uploading Content
Content can be uploaded to your Set using the "Add Content" button at the top right of the section. Alternatively, when a set has nothing uploaded yet, you'll see an Add Content button where the content is usually shown.
Once clicked, a modal will appear where you'll find the directory inside your Content Server where the content for this particular Set is stored.
Clicking the Upload New Content button will display a window where you can select the content you wish to upload to your Set. Once you are satisfied with the selection, you can click the Process Content button to begin processing your content.
Important: The Add Content page is used for adding Video and Photo Content specifically. If you wish to upload a thumbnail, trailer video, or clip video for your Content, please navigate to the Set Preview section of the Details Tab.
Once content has been uploaded, you'll see a list of them organized by videos and photos.
Processing Content
When uploading video content to your sets, you can either choose to upload the same video in multiple resolutions or allow the CMS Worker to transcode your source file to all available formats determined in the Formats section of the CMS, lower than the resolution of the source file.
For example, if you have 4 available formats set in the Formats Section of the CMS: 4k, 1080p, 720p, and 480p, and you upload a 4k video, the CMS will transcode the source file, creating a video for each resolution.
This process begins as soon as you hit the "Process Content" button. Once your video is being processed, you can see the progress at the top of the screen or in the Processing section of the CMS.
Set Previews
Once content has been uploaded and processed to your Content Set, NATS will create a Cover Photo and a Clip Video from the uploaded content to use for specific page design settings.
You can set a clip or trailer to play when a visitor hovers over it. This is done by customizing the User Interaction setting in the Design Tab of a Block. Learn more about Blocks in the Block Builder article.
The Set Previews can be replaced with a Cover Photo, Trailer Video, and Clip Video of your choosing by clicking the "Upload New" button under the respective type.
SFW Set Previews
In addition to the NSFW versions that are automatically generated during the content process stage, SFW versions of the Cover Photo and Clip Preview will be generated. This will automatically create a blurred version of the Cover Photo and Clip Preview.
You can upload your own SFW versions or create a SFW version with the "Create SFW" button. Learn more in the SFW Set Previews article.
