The Publisher Administrator is used to manage the top-level, "publisher" viewing page. This
top-level portal page has the same look-and-feel as the channel viewing pages and is
customized in a similar manner—but the Publisher Administrator cannot upload video.
Instead, the Publisher viewing page is a portal that can aggregate and display video (and
scheduled events) from each of its associated channels. The Publisher page supports live
scheduled events from channels but does not support its own live webcasting.
A typical VBoss community might be a campus environment where there is one Publisher
Admin at the university level who maintains the university ("portal") page, and multiple
Channel Admins at the department level who maintain the individual department ("channel")
pages. The Publisher Administrator also has its own reports that aggregate information from
all subordinate channels.
Publishing Manager > Asset Library
The Publisher Asset Library contains all videos that have been aggregated from channels.
Unlike the Channel Administrator, the Publisher Administrator cannot upload video directly
into the Asset Library. Instead, stored videos uploaded by individual channels are made
available to the Publisher using the
Aggregate Content feature.
Video in the Publisher's Asset Library is aggregated from the channels. You cannot directly
upload video into the Publisher from other sources. In order to populate the Publisher's
Asset Library, the content must first be uploaded to one of the associated channels. The
Asset Library page lets you
Remove Video currently shown on the Publisher viewing page or
Aggregate Content from the channels.
Note In most respects the behavior of the Publisher Admin is identical to the Channel
Admin. For a description of all Publisher functionality, refer to the appropriate topics
in the Channel Administrator
on page 11. This chapter describes only those
functional items listed above that behave differently for publishers.
