Manage the Library

Correct a recording, group recordings into series, add a missing one, or hide one.

Admins For admins.

Admins can correct anything a card says, add a recording the Sunday check missed, group recordings into series and hide what shouldn't be shown. None of it changes the service's event, and nothing is ever deleted: hidden things can be shown again.

Open ManageAdmins

Select Manage (marker 1 on the screenshot) at the top of the Library.

Manage is at the top of the Library (admins only).
Manage the Library.
  • Add a recording (marker 1 on the screenshot) for a service that has no video. See Add a missing recording.
  • Type a New series name (marker 2 on the screenshot) and select New series to make an empty series, then add recordings to it.
  • Not shown (marker 3 on the screenshot) lists the recordings the Library leaves out: hidden by an admin (select Show (marker 4 on the screenshot) to bring one back), without a video (Edit to add one), or preached by someone whose account is disabled.
  • Series lists every series, hidden ones too. Edit (marker 5 on the screenshot) renames or hides one.
  • At the bottom: how many recordings the Library shows.

Correct a recordingAdmins

Every box is empty until you correct it: empty means automatic, and the line above the box shows what that is right now. The card's corrections never change the service's event.

  1. Open the recording in the Library and select Edit at the bottom.
  2. Change what's wrong (see below).
  3. Select Save. The Library shows the change right away.
Correcting a recording's title.
  • Service: the service it was recorded at. Change (marker 1 on the screenshot) links it to another one.
  • YouTube link (marker 2 on the screenshot): the video. The line under it says whether it was found by the YouTube sync or set by hand.
  • Title (marker 3 on the screenshot) and Passage (marker 5 on the screenshot): type the correction. Back to automatic (marker 4 on the screenshot) undoes it.
  • Preacher (marker 6 on the screenshot): Automatic, A member (pick them: the card shows their Scheduly picture) or A guest (type their name).
Series, description, chapters and visibility.
  • In series (marker 1 on the screenshot): see Put recordings in a series.
  • Description (marker 2 on the screenshot): empty shows YouTube's. Edit YouTube's text copies it in to change.
  • Chapters (marker 3 on the screenshot): Add chapter, or Edit YouTube's chapters to start from YouTube's. Each chapter needs a time (like 40:46) and a title.
  • Sermon starts at (marker 4 on the screenshot): where Watch sermon starts. Empty: the chapter that says the sermon begins.
  • Hide from the Library (marker 5 on the screenshot): see Hide a recording. Then Save (marker 6 on the screenshot).

Put recordings in a seriesAdmins

Sermons through one book group themselves. Use a series of your own for anything else: a topical series, Advent, a guest week.

  1. Open the recording and select Edit.
  2. In In series, pick a series, Not in a series, or Automatic. To make one, select New series…, type its name and select Create.
  3. Select Save.

Staff can do the same from the event editor's Sermon series box (Set or change a service's video).

Rename or hide a seriesAdmins

Open the series in the Library. Its banner has Add recording (marker 1 on the screenshot) (adds one straight into this series) and Edit series (marker 2 on the screenshot). You can also select Edit next to the series in Manage.

An admin's buttons on a series.

Select Edit series to open its form:

Renaming a series.
  1. Change the Name (marker 1 on the screenshot). The series' link stays the same, so links people shared still work.
  2. Or turn on Hide this series (marker 2 on the screenshot). Its recordings stay in the Library, just not grouped. Turn it off to bring the series back.
  3. Select Save.

Add a missing recordingAdmins

For a service the Sunday check didn't link, like a special service that isn't usually streamed.

  1. In Manage, select Add a recording.
  2. Pick a date in Services around (marker 1 on the screenshot). The services from 10 days before to 4 days after it are listed.
  3. Select the service (marker 2 on the screenshot). Streamed services are marked Service. One that already Has a recording can't be picked.
  4. Paste the YouTube link (marker 3 on the screenshot), correct anything else, and select Add recording.
Adding a recording to a service.

Hide a recordingAdmins

For a recording that shouldn't be public, like a service with a technical problem.

  1. Open the recording, select Edit, and turn on Hide from the Library.
  2. Select Save.

It's kept, not deleted, and listed under Not shown in Manage. The Sunday check won't link another video to that service. To show it again, select Show there, or turn the switch off.
