Edit – To change the file information for the placeholder, click the Edit button. This takes you
to the Edit Content page as described in the next section of this manual, on Content File
Actions.

•

Purge and Bump – If this placeholder is part of a series, you can remove it from the Web
Application but preserve the series information. For example, a series on quilting might have
8 episodes. The producer decides to cancel the 3rd episode. You could purge and bump
Quilting_3. There will now be only 7 episodes in the series. The new Quilting_3 will inherit
the filename, ingest date, and other metadata from the old Quilting_4. Quilting_4 will inherit
the metadata from the old Quilting_5, etc.

•

Purge – If you want to remove this placeholder from the Web Application and not preserve
any of its metadata, click the Purge button. This is a good choice if the event associated with
this placeholder is cancelled. To continue the example, if the entire quilting series were
cancelled, you would purge each placeholder.
