Manage metadata
There are different kinds of metadata which can be used to attribute shows.
Categories
Categories can be utilized to create sections within the radio program.
Example of how Radio ORANGE 94.0 uses categories to group their shows in form of areas of interest on their website.
Funding categories
Funding categories are used to mark shows as per funding-related and regulartory purposes.
Languages
Languages can be assigned on show level.
Music focus
Music focus can be used to define a list of music genres and assign them to shows.
Topics
Topics are a way to group shows under one theme or special program (German: “Schwerpunktprogramm”).
Types
Types can be used to define the format type of shows. For example you can mark shows as a feature or talkshow.
Example of how Radio Helsinki uses types on their website.
Link Types
Link types define which types of links can be added to show, episode and host profile pages.
You can freely add new link types. If you want to prohibit the use of an already used link type, it is important to deactivate it, instead of deletion. Otherwise those links will not be properly displayed on the radio station website anymore.
