Fields filled in by imports#

Imported stations can also carry information you don’t edit by hand, such as the source ID used to spot duplicates, bitrate, codec and listener counts from the source directory.

Where fields appear#

You decide which details visitors see. Go to TuneSera → Settings → Layout to show or hide details on station cards and station pages, such as description, genres, location, language, frequency, contact information and social links.

Fill in Language and Genres for every station. They power the directory filters and browse pages, so stations without them are harder to find.
