What I'm doing is a much simpler way. I was trying to categorize the videos by transferring them over into the folders within my archives, and now that's not allowing me to do that. However, the metadata mechanic doesn't let me do the same thing at all. I just wanted this fixed and overhauled at some point, to make the system better than it ever was. It doesn't benefit people that wanted to transfer the files into the folders as a way to make them easier to locate, for the archive to appear more organized, and to also again, categorize them on what the videos are related to, and what series they come from. That's what I really wanted to expect to work.

the way people find things is through search. search relies on item level metadata. that is why it is best that each work be in its own item, so it can have the unique metadata it deserves and be findable.

If that's how it's going to be from this point going forward, then the thing that angers me beyond belief as of right now, is the fact that I literally have to start over from scratch. I will not allow that, I just want what was explained to you fixed, and I really want what I was requested made possible by implementing that specific change so I can transfer files into the folders in order to organize them by series, and what kind of videos they are. Is that much to ask?

managing files will be fix. I just do not have an estimate of when that will happen.

That's okay though, many thanks for getting my feedback in regards to the flaws I've discovered on the file management system. And just in case, I'm also sorry if I was giving you some bother, it's just I was desperately frustrated of seeing my archives being grayed out despite the fact I was doing what is best in terms of organizing the files, like I have done within TheInvertedShadow Archive.

no worries. i understand. we allow alot of flexibility. because of that some use is not exactly as intended and it's not easy to predict all the ways people will try to use the site. feel free to email with questions you might have.

Despite it could take a long time to get the stuff fixed, and not knowing how long it'll take, you are free to inform me once its getting worked out, and once it's done. 👍
