Adds the capability to manage resource licensing via the resource view page.

 

  1. Browse to a resource you want to add a license
  2. On the license manager tab (a little way down the page beneath the preview) click "New License"
  3. Fill in the details
  4. Optionally, upload a file
  5. Click 'Save'

Your resource will now have a new license. You can add multiple licenses per resource in order to make them as specific as necessary.

License Manager

Centralised management

From the admin menu on the top right (requires permission "t"), select Licenses. All licenses can be reviewed and edited centrally. It's possible to relate a license to several resources by entering multiple resource IDs in to the resources box.

Batch operations

From the collections actions dropdown menu, two new options "Link license" and "Unlink license" allow a license to be linked with / unlinked from all the resources in a given collection.

Providing access for regular users

All users with the 'a' (System area) access will have access to this area by default. Additional groups can be added using the 'lm' permission when setting user group permissions.
