Hi,

 

I've made a  metadata template for copywrite info in Bridge which is super useful and seems to have all the fields I need except for  "copywrite info url" field which is available in the file info just can't find it in the template. Does anyone know if it's there and if so where it is please?

 

Can't see it so far but hoping it's hidden somehwere rather than not there at all! Thanks!

You can use a Photoshop or Bridge script to add the copyright URL string.

 

Here is a Bridge script:

 

#target bridge

if (BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge") {
    copyrightURL = MenuElement.create("command", "Add Copyright Info URL", "at the end of Tools");
}
copyrightURL.onSelect = function () {
    var thumbs = app.document.selections;
    if (!thumbs.length) return;
    if (ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript == undefined) ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject("lib:AdobeXMPScript");
    for (var a in thumbs) {
        var selectedFile = thumbs[a].spec;
        var myXmpFile = new XMPFile(selectedFile.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN, XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_UPDATE);
        var myXmp = myXmpFile.getXMP();

        myXmp.deleteProperty(XMPConst.NS_XMP_RIGHTS, "WebStatement");
        myXmp.setProperty(XMPConst.NS_XMP_RIGHTS, "WebStatement", "www.mysite.com"); // your website URL
        
        if (myXmpFile.canPutXMP(myXmp)) {
            myXmpFile.putXMP(myXmp);
            myXmpFile.closeFile(XMPConst.CLOSE_UPDATE_SAFELY);
        }
    }
};

Ideally, the script would also apply a metadata template using the applyMetadataTemplate() code, however, I haven't worked that out so this is a 2-step process.
