Admin: - Admin pages live in the sidebar's Administration panel (Dashboard, Libraries, Hash Conflicts, Users, Settings) - Library creation is the Create Library modal (Library Name, Description, Library Type); folders are added afterwards by expanding the library row and using the Folders section's path input + Browse + Add — the old Add Library modal with folder and 'Scan on save' fields no longer exists - Scanning is via the Scanner API or watch mode (File Watcher status on the admin dashboard); remove references to the removed per-library Rescan button and 'Force Rescan' option Collections: - Fill in the empty creating/managing placeholders with the real flow: New Collection button, modal fields (name, description, icon grid, color swatches), per-collection edit/delete icon buttons, Restore System button, and dashboard-section visibility via Customize Dashboard

# Admin Library Management
|
|
|
|
## Adding Library Folders
|
|
|
|
When creating or managing a library, you can add folders containing your media files (ebooks, comics, manga).
|
|
|
|
### Using the Folder Browser
|
|
|
|
The admin library page includes a folder browser to help you select folders on the server:
|
|
|
|
1. Open the **Administration** panel in the sidebar (admins only) and go to **Libraries**
|
|
2. Click a library in the list to expand its panel
|
|
3. Find the **Folders** section
|
|
4. Click **Browse** next to the folder path input — this opens the **Browse Folders** dialog
|
|
5. Navigate through the server's filesystem
|
|
6. Select a folder; it fills the path input, then click **Add**
|
|
|
|
### Security
|
|
|
|
- The folder browser only shows directories (not files)
|
|
- Path traversal is protected (cannot access parent directories with `..`)
|
|
- Only admin users can browse the filesystem
|
|
|
|
### Manual Entry
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can manually type the full server path if you know it:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/home/user/books
|
|
/media/external/ebooks
|
|
/var/lib/manga
|
|
```
