CHAPTERS: WEBSITE LIST [01:42] | SAVE SETTINGS TO PROFILE [03:00] | CUSTOM SETTINGS EDITOR [04:22]
IN this tutorial, you’ll learn how to properly configure custom settings and associate them with a pre-existing submission profile. Custom settings along with submission profiles will allow you to override certain default values, set up during the video submission process.
For example, if you have different login credentials for a certain site, other than the ones used during the submission setup, AVS Adult allows you to set up custom login credentials for that particular website.
On sites with custom login credentials, videos will be uploaded using the custom credentials, as long as the submission profile has been loaded during the submission set-up process.
AVS Adult allows you to set-up custom settings, to override the default data of the following fields:
Upon opening the Custom Settings tab, all sites available in the AVS Adult database will be loaded to the Website List, located on the left.
By selecting a website from the list, AVS Adult will load all available fields from the selected tube site, fields, for which you are allowed to set custom values. These fields, hereafter will be referred to as Keys.
The default fields and their values will be referred to as AVS Keys, while the provided custom values will be referred to as Custom Keys.
Checking the Load Only Content Partner Sites option will load ONLY those tube sites that allow Content Partner Program submissions.
Pressing the Reset All Settings To Default button, will reset all completed fields or Key values to their default settings.
Please keep in mind that none of your existing profiles will be affected by this action, unless you decide to save the default values over a pre-existing submission profile, thus overwriting any previously saved custom settings.
From this section, you can select and manage custom settings for a pre-existing submission profile.
You can save custom settings to a selected profile, load a submission profile for editing or permanently delete a profile from your account.
Once you have finished setting up your custom settings, please select a profile from the drop-down and press the Save Settings To Selected Profile button. A confirmation message will be displayed and your custom settings will be saved to the selected profile.
If you would like to edit the settings for one of your profiles, select the profile from the drop-down and press the “Load Profile” button. Your profile settings will be loaded to the editor and you’ll be able to change, delete or set new custom keys for the desired tube sites.
Upon completion, don’t forget to save any changes to the desired submission profile.
To permanently delete a submission profile, select the profile from the list and press the “Delete Profile” button.
A confirmation message will be displayed and once the action confirmed, the selected profile and all associated custom settings will be permanently deleted from your account.
Under the Default AVS keys and Custom Keys section, AVS Adult allows you to provide custom settings for certain predefined fields, for each selected tube site. The Keys or field values you’ll be able to change are site-specific and will be different for each selected tube site.
Sponsor CPP Keys at the bottom are used only for Content Partner submissions.
More information about how to properly configure custom settings for CPP submissions will be provided in the Blog section of our website, in a dedicated tutorial.
In the list located on the right, under Custom AVS & CPP Keys, you’ll find all default Keys, for which you’re allowed to set-up, custom values, depending on the selected tube site.
Upon selecting a Key, a short description of the selected Key will be loaded in the Key Description & How To section.
In the upcoming part, we’ll teach how to set up custom settings, on desired tube sites.
From the drop-down under the “Save Settings To Profile” section, select the profile for which you would like to set up or edit custom keys.
If you haven’t already created a profile, you can create a new profile using the Profile Manager, under the Submission Setup tab.
For more information about how to create, save and manage submission profiles, please check out the 1st part of the AVS Adult – Submission Setup tutorial.
Once you have selected the desired profile, press the “Load Profile” button.
Your submission profile will be loaded to the custom settings editor, along with any previously saved custom settings.
From the site list on the left, select the tube site for which you would like to set up custom settings.
Once a site has been selected, the available keys for the selected site will be loaded to the editor.
Provide the custom values for the default Keys you would like to override, during the submission process to the selected tube site.
For example, if you would like to set up a custom username and password, next to the “$username” key provide your custom username, while next to the “$password” key provide your custom password.
Also, if you would like to replace the default video title and description as well, please provide a custom video title and description to be used for your submission to the selected tube site.
Once completed, move on to the next tube site you would like to edit.
After you’ve completed adding your custom keys to all desired sites, don’t forget to save and apply the changes to an existing submission profile. From the drop-down on the right, select the desired profile name and press the “Save Settings To Selected Profile” button.
A confirmation message will be displayed and once the action has been confirmed, your custom settings will be saved to the selected profile.
In order to use custom settings associated with a submission profile, please don’t forget to load the profile prior to setting up your submissions. You can load the desired profile from the Profile Manager section, located under the Submission Setup tab.
