Folders module


About

The Folders feature lets users organize their My Media into private folders and nested structures, as shown in the image below.

When folders are disabled, they’re simply hidden and the media shows as a flat list in My Media. The folder structure is saved and will come back if the feature is turned on again.

This is a Theming-only module, available for both Video Portal and LMS Video environments. This module may need to be activated for your account. Contact your Kaltura representative if you don’t see it in your configuration.
