Create a channel playlist in Video Portal


About

Playlists help you organize and highlight content on your channel.  

You must have permissions to create playlists.

  • The Channelplaylists module must be enabled.
  • Existing playlists may not be added to a channel playlist.
  • Kaltura Video Quizzes can only be added to a playlist in applications where the main playlist player is set to a v7 player.

These instructions apply to the legacy Video Portal. If you’re using the new Video Portal with Theming, see the Content Hubs category.
