Check database
Before adding new content (especially input file, site, ini set and output set), it is recommended to check previously uploaded data to avoid filling the database with redundant data. Use content list pages in main navigation menu. For testing purposes temporal data can be created (see below).
Add new content
Projects, INI sets, input files, etc are "content" in the database. Creating new project, input, etc means adding new content.
- any content can be created by clicking Add content » [Content type]
- or use Add [Content type] button is on the top of content list pages (like Inputs » Ini sets » Add ini set in main navigation menu)
Uploaded input and output contents can be used any times.
Edit existing content
Any content can be edited by its owner.
- use Edit tab on the top of content page
- or use Edit button on content list pages (like Inputs » Ini sets in main navigation menu)
Delete content
Contents which are not referred by another content can be deleted by its owner
- there is a Delete link at the bottom of the editing form
- or use Delete button on content list pages (like Inputs » Ini sets in main navigation menu)
Notes
Editing and deleting can be restricted if the content is referred by another content. E.g. you are not allowed to delete an input file or change uploaded file when an ini set refers it.
