Media categories
Media will be placed into individual categories that are organized into a tree. In this regard, they are very similar to the node tree.A category may be one of three types:
- Container only: these categories will not contain media or albums, instead of serving to organize sub-categories.
- Albums only: in these categories, users will create albums that can contain one or more media items. When the category is viewed, there will be one entry for each album.
- Media items only: media will be added directly to these categories and not organized into albums. Each media item will be displayed directly when viewing the category.
