Your MediaKron site can hold a great deal of content, ranging from pieces of text, to images, audio clips, and videos.  In order to stay organized, there are functions built into the site to help you filter, edit, and delete content.  There are also multi-item actions, which allow you to delete,
publish, or unpublish multiple pieces of content at the same
time.

To begin working with content in your MediaKron site, first
be sure that you are logged in.  Then, on the horizontal bar
next to the project title, click on Manage Project.

Then, from the toolbar on the left, select Content.

This will bring you to the Content workspace within MediaKron.  You will see content items currently on the site listed in this space.

Filtering Content

To sort content in this workspace area in order to view, edit, or delete a particular piece or group of content items, multiple filtering options are provided.  As pictured below, the descriptions for each filtering space are provided beneath
the respective box.

You can choose to filter content using only one of the options.  For example, the content can be sorted by Title, as shown below.

You can also filter in multiple ways.  For example, the content can be sorted by Title and Type, as shown below.

In order to filter by Title, Author, or Tags, enter text in the box above the description.

If an Author or Tag is already in the system that matches your text, you should be able to select this person or tag.

In order to filter by Topic or Type of content, use the drop-
down menu provided to select your filtering option.

Topic ->

Type ->

When you are finished entering the filtering options you
would like, scroll over to the right and click Apply.

The content in the workspace should filter according to the settings you selected.  In the example below, you can see that the content was filtered by Type so that only audio pieces would appear in the list.

Editing Content

In order to edit a piece of content, locate and select the pencil icon under the Ops. column.

This will bring you to an editing space.  Here, you can change the Title, Topic, Tags, content Type, and other details of the content piece.  For more information on these editing functions, please review the proper documentation for creating a piece of content depending on the type of content (image, audio, video, or text).

You can find the documentation here:
Image
Audio (BC Users and Non-BC Users)
Video (BC Users and Non-BC Users)
Text

In this editing space, you can also edit the Timeline and Map details of this content piece, if you have enabled these functions in your MediaKron site.  For assistance on how to use the options under these tabs, please refer to the documentation on using the Timeline and Map
functions within MediaKron.

Once you have finished editing your content piece, click the
Save button, which is in the top right corner of the editing box.

A message should appear that verifies that your content piece has been updated.

Deleting an Individual Content Item

In order to delete a piece of content, locate and select the trash can icon under the Ops. column.

If you are sure you would like to delete this content piece,
click Delete.  If you would like to keep this item, click Cancel.
Please keep in mind that this action cannot be undone.

A message should appear that verifies that your content piece has been deleted.

Using Multi-Item Actions

In this Content workspace, you can use the Multi-Item Actions to select, delete, publish, or unpublish multiple pieces of content at a time.  Publishing a piece of content means that it will be viewable by users on the live MediaKron site.  Unpublishing content means that it will no longer be viewable on the site.  However, unlike when the Delete option is used, the piece of content will still be available to you in the Content workspace.

In order to work with multiple items, first select the items by using the check boxes on the left of the content list. 

After selecting the items you would like, scroll up and use the Operations function to delete, publish, or unpublish.

To delete the chosen items, select this option from the drop-down Operations menu and click EXECUTE.

A message will appear asking you to confirm that the correct pieces of content have been chosen.  If you would like to delete these pieces, click Confirm.  If you would like to keep these pieces and return to the previous page, click Cancel.

Once you have clicked Confirm, a message should appear that verifies that the selected items have been deleted.

To Publish the chosen items, select this option from the drop-down Operations menu and click EXECUTE.

A message will appear asking you to confirm that the correct pieces of content have been chosen.  If you would like to Publish these pieces, click Confirm.  If you would no longer like to Publish these items and would like to return to the previous page, click Cancel.

Once you have clicked Confirm, a message should appear that verifies that the selected items have been Published.

To Unpublish the chosen items, select this option from the drop-down Operations menu and click EXECUTE.  

A message will appear asking you to confirm that the correct pieces of content have been chosen.  If you would like to Unpublish these pieces, click Confirm.  If you would no longer like to Unpublish these items and would like to return to the previous page, click Cancel.

Once you have clicked Confirm, a message should appear that verifies that the selected items have been Unpublished.
