FAQ
1. How do I move an item to a different collection?
You can “move” an item into the collection in which it already exists.
Click the checkbox located next to the item on the right. When items are selected, they are shown in the “Selected Items” tab in the menu header.
From the “Selected Items” tab, click the "Move" button.
2. Why do I see items with junk titles and no files in my collection?
A new item will be created as soon as you click “create an item”, regardless of whether or not you upload any accompanying files or assign the item a title. This item will appear unpublished in the assigned collection with a junk title, like “dn39x159t”. This item can be edited to include files and metadata, or deleted.
3. How do I create a file name using autonumber database?
