The user may specify the metadata of the entry (e.g. title and description) at the time of creation. The use case for this module is that one user creates the entry and enters the metadata. The user can add content at a later time, or the content may be added by a different user.

If set to No, users will not have the option of importing media from a URL and will only be allowed to upload media from their desktop. |
validateUrl | Select Yes to have the system validate the URL that a user enters. If set to No, the system will not validate URLs. If a user types an invalid URL, the content will not be uploaded and they must re-enter a URL. |
