Organizing your video library
Your library is a grid of folders and videos. Folders can hold videos and other folders, so you can group by course, client or campaign however deep you like. Everything here happens in All videos and the Folders tree in the left sidebar.
Creating and managing folders
Section titled “Creating and managing folders”- Open the place the new folder should go — All videos or another folder.
- Click New folder (top right), or the + next to Folders in the sidebar.
- Type a name and save.
Each folder card shows how many videos it holds. Its ⋯ menu offers:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Share | Give other ESTAGE users access to the folder — see Teams and shared folders |
| Rename | Change the folder’s name |
| Move to folder | Put the folder, with everything in it, inside another folder |
| Delete | Remove the folder and its sub-folders |
Drag folder cards to change their order.
Sorting videos
Section titled “Sorting videos”The sort menu above the video grid offers Custom order, Name (A–Z), Name (Z–A), Newest first and Oldest first. Name sorting reads numbers naturally, so “Lesson 2” comes before “Lesson 10”.
In Custom order you can drag video cards to arrange them; the order is saved for the folder. The other sorts are just a view and don’t change the saved order. Your sort choice is remembered in your browser.
Finding a video
Section titled “Finding a video”Click Search videos and folders… in the top bar and start typing. Results match the beginning of a video’s title or a folder’s name, across your whole library.
The video card menu
Section titled “The video card menu”Every video card’s ⋯ menu has:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Copy Player Link | Copies the video’s link on the ESTAGE player |
| Move Video To Folder | Moves it to another folder |
| Rename Video | Changes its title |
| Video Settings | Opens its settings page (also: click the thumbnail) |
| Download Video | Downloads an MP4 copy — shown once processing is finished |
| Delete Video | Deletes it permanently |
On a folder shared with you as Viewer, the menu only offers Copy Player Link, Open Video and Download Video.
Working with several videos at once
Section titled “Working with several videos at once”- Hover a video and tick the checkbox in its top-left corner.
- While a selection is active, clicking a thumbnail toggles it. Shift-click selects a range. Select all picks every video in the folder.
- Open Actions (N) and choose Move to folder or Delete.
- Cancel clears the selection.
If some videos can’t be moved, the rest move and the failed ones stay selected so you can try again.
Things worth knowing
Section titled “Things worth knowing”- Deleting a video removes its files permanently — from your library and from every page, lesson or post that plays it. You’re asked to confirm, but there is no undo.
- Videos that are still processing can’t be selected for bulk actions, and clicking their thumbnail does nothing. Open one with Video Settings in its card menu.
- Moving a video doesn’t change its link. Pages that play it keep working.
