## Auto Grouping ✨

The media files you select will be automatically grouped into the correct placements based on the file names.

![](https://ajeuwbhvhr.cloudimg.io/https://colony-recorder.s3.amazonaws.com/files/2025-04-28/44004229-e3bf-4b28-b7cb-2090b1d02fd9/ascreenshot.jpeg?tl_px=0,66\&br_px=2752,1605\&force_format=jpeg\&q=100\&width=1120.0\&wat=1\&wat_opacity=0.7\&wat_gravity=northwest\&wat_url=https://colony-recorder.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/images/watermarks/FB923C_standard.png\&wat_pad=145,277)

<Info>
  The filenames must match exactly, only the placement identifier should be different. eg `AdManage_Image_10_4x5.png` and `AdManage_Image_10_9x16.png` will be grouped together.
</Info>

#### Supported Patterns

Here are the placement identifier patterns that we support for automatic grouping:

| Square(Feed)           | Portrait(Feed)           | Vertical(Story)          | Landscape(Wide)           |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------ | ------------------------ | ------------------------- |
| filename\_`1x1`.png    | filename\_`4x5`.png      | filename\_`9x16`.png     | filename\_`16x9`.png      |
| filename\_`1_1`.jpg    | filename\_`4_5`.jpg      | filename\_`9_16`.jpg     | filename\_`16x9`.jpg      |
| filename\_`square`.png | filename\_`portrait`.png | filename\_`vertical`.png | filename\_`landscape`.png |
| filename\_`11`.png     | filename\_`45`.png       | filename\_`916`.png      | filename\_`169`.png       |
| filename\_`SQ`.png     | filename\_`4:5`.png      | filename\_`VT`.png       | filename\_`16-9`.png      |
| filename\_`Feed`.png   | filename\_`4-5`.png      | filename\_`Story`.png    | filename\_`16:9`.png      |

The following pixel dimensions are also supported:

| Square(Feed)    | Portrait(Feed)  | Vertical(Story) | Landscape(Wide) |
| --------------- | --------------- | --------------- | --------------- |
| `1080x1080`.png | `1080x1350`.png | `1080x1920`.png | `1920x1080`.png |
| `1080x1080`.jpg | `1080x1350`.jpg | `628x1200`.jpg  | `1200x628`.png  |
|                 |                 |                 | `1350x1080`.png |

<Info>
  * The format can appear at the start, middle, or end of the filename.
  * The separators `-`, `_`, `~`, `:` are interchangeable in most patterns.
  * Case is not sensitive (e.g., `SQ` or `sq`, `Story` or `STORY` work the same).
  * For Instagram-style filenames, patterns like `instagram~post~-~1.jpg` and `instagram~story~-~1.jpg` are also supported.
  * For pixel dimensions, the aspect ratio determines the placement category:

    Square: ratio \~1:1 - Portrait: ratio between 0.7 and 0.9 - Vertical:ratio ≤ 0.7 - Landscape: ratio ≥ 1.1

## Manual Grouping

In some situations, the media files you select may not be named correctly for automatic grouping. In this case, you can manually group the ads by clicking the `Set Multi-Placement` button.
