Adding a new filter to Media Manager's search requires three actions: adding

  1. Adding a new filter to the "DigiZuite_System_Framework_Search" search
→ adding
  1. .
  2. Adding the same filter to the searches "DigiZuite_System_Framework_My_Favorites" and "DigiZuite_System_Framework_My_Videoes"
→ creating
  1.  
  2. Creating a new label (if one does not already exist), whose Constant matches the new Filter's ID.


Media Manager uses the search "DigiZuite_System_Framework_Search" to search for assets. A user can input text in the wide text field (this is how any FreeText filters are used), and/or choose to add filters such as "Date" or "Keywords":


2.1 Adding an Asset type filter

First the filter must be added to the search "DigiZuite_System_Framework_Search":

  1. Go to the DAM Center → System tools →
ConfigManager → choose
  1. ConfigManager.
  2. Choose DigiZuite™ Media
Manager → choose
  1. Manager.
  2. Choose the version, which your Media Manager is set up to
use → click
  1. use.
  2. Click the "Searches" tab
→ add
  1. .
  2. Select the "DigiZuite_System_Framework_Search" search.
  3. Add an asset type
filter → save
  1. filter.
  2. Save the search
→ populate
  1. .
  2. Populate the search
→ ensure
  1. .
  2. Ensure that the search has been populated by refreshing the page; if the "populate search cache" cog-wheel button is not present, the search has been successfully populated.

    10. Then you MUST add the same filter to the searches "DigiZuite_System_Framework_My_Favorites" and "DigiZuite_System_Framework_My_Videoes". 

    11. If a label with the correct Constant and Label does not exist, then you MUST create one. Unlike Add new meta data field to Media Manager's Asset Preview, if a label with a Constant matching             the added filter's ID does not exists, the Media Manager will throw an error, which results in the filters being unavailable.

In this case, a label already exists with a Constant "sAssetType" and Label "Asset type".

After doing so, refreshing Media Manager will display three filters:



2.2 Removing a filter

This is done by removing the filter from the search "DigiZuite_System_Framework_Search". You MAY SHOULD also clean up the searches "DigiZuite_System_Framework_My_Favorites" and "DigiZuite_System_Framework_My_Videoes".
