All about Media​

The Media library is where you add and organize your own videos, images and audio files. Media files may be used in playlists, as individual items in channels, or incorporated into canvas templates.

 

Additional media folders are shared with you by Ridgelogic. Shared media may be incorporated in your playlists or channels but without editorial access (you will not be able to rename or delete shared media.)

Uploading content to folders

Go to the Media tab and click any folder you want to start adding content into.

Click on the “Upload” button to start adding media directly into the selected folder.

Hover over the name of any piece of content and click on the small pencil icon. You’ll be able to start editing the name for your media.

Press ‘Enter’ to apply your changes.

You can also change the name of any media item by clicking on it, and in the new preview window, selecting the pencil next to the file name.

Click on the “New Folder” icon.

A new folder will appear that you can name.

Then, you can start dragging and dropping content or uploading media into the folder.

Click and drag any piece of content with your mouse, and then drop it into a folder.

You can also move a file by hovering over it, clicking the three dots, and selecting “Move to.”

Hover over your folder. Click on the pencil icon that appears to change the name of your folder.

Press ‘Enter’ to apply your changes.

Hover over the piece of content you would like to delete, and click on the Trash icon.

Deleted media is temporarily stored in your Trash, which can be accessed by clicking on your name at the bottom-left corner of the screen, and selecting “Trash.” From here, content can be restored or permanently deleted.

Click on the three dots for the settings dropdown menu for your folder. Select “Delete Folder” and you’ll be prompted to delete the folder.

Folders are deleted permanently and cannot be restored.

Use the following commands on your computer keyboard to select multiple items.

macOS: Hold Cmd ⌘

Windows: Hold Ctrl

You can select as many pieces of media as you’d like. You can either bulk delete or create new folders for all of the media selected.

Hover over the star icon on any piece of content.

Click this to favorite/star the item to easily find it later on.

Use any keywords or tags in the search bar to quickly populate specific screens.

When searching for tags “tag:” must be typed first. (ie. tag:tagname)

First, select multiple items in your media library.

You can perform bulk actions on multiple items at once using the toolbar navigation in the upper-right-hand corner.

You can use this to add availability or expiration dates for content, add tags for quick searches, or add items in bulk to playlists.
