Rules/restrictions for uploading
«

Hi,
A very specific request due to my situation.
I have several clients and Im always affraid to send wrong files.
So if there is a way to, for example, lock upload a certain FTP to only 2 starred photos, that would be great!
Thanks.

Ulrik,
Why not just use the Ratings filter in the toolbar to filter out the images you don't ever want uploaded? They'll disappear from the contact sheet and it will be impossible to select them and send them.
HTH,

Hi,
Thanks.
Because i have to send 0 star to one client and 1 start to another one. I do that but it would be nice to ensure it cant happen as it can be very costly. We can loose our jobs on it and it goes very fast in a half time of a game etc....
Another specific request for me, is to be able to connect who to upload to and the IPTC Template as it takes times to ensure the right template is used. But thats another one for me specifically and is connected to the above regarding making bad errors...
Thanks.

Unfortunately, if you make the mistake in using the Star Ratings filter, it would be just as easy to make the same mistake when uploading. The method Kirk describes means you could never send 0-star files when 1-star files are viewed. The only way you could make a mistake here is if a file was mistakenly tagged with the wrong number of stars... but then no upload filter would catch that mistake either. It would seem to me that adding the necessity to check boxes on and off in the upload dialog would just add more clicks that you have to make when under pressure and another opportunity to make that crucial mistake. No?
