Add a way to reliably track which media was uploaded with which Campaign
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

autoAdd.categories is currently added, but that can be changed at any time. And can have multiple of those categories, which makes things hard to track.

Methods:

  1. Add a field in the database. Brrrr
  2. Use a hidden category that is derived from the campaign name.

Leaning towards (2). Thoughts?

A separate tag for each campaign?

(In reply to comment #2)

A separate tag for each campaign?

Why not? Its not like there is a limit on the number of tags we can have. They could perhaps all share some common prefix ("campaign-").
