Addtoplaylists module


About

The Addtoplaylists module lets users create, edit, and delete personal playlists and add media to playlists.

Playlists are static lists of media that users can access in Content Hubs or legacy Video Portal. For users to view media in a playlist, the media must be unlisted or published to a category or channel they have permission to view.

The Addtoplaylists module is supported only in Content Hubs and legacy Video Portal.

1. Go to your Configuration Management console, locate the Addtoplaylists module in the left panel, then select it. You can also navigate to it directly using a link: https://{your_site_URL}/admin/config/tab/addtoplaylists .

The Addtoplaylists page displays.

2. Configure the following:

enabled - Set to 'Yes' to enable the module and display the Add to playlist option to users.
