⚙️ Settings

This section is kept as a compatibility page for old /docs/youtube-uploader/settings links. The full settings list is no longer stored as one long page: it is distributed across focused sections.

The current v5.2.0 input settings snapshot is stored next to the template .zp file:

E:\ZennoPoster\[Templates]\YouTube\YouTube-Uploader\YouTube-Uploader v5\input_settings.xml

The old Docs\InputSettings.xml file inside the template working folder may differ from the current interface and should not be used as the only source.

License Key

The License key field is located on the License tab in input settings. Without a filled license key, the template writes an error and stops execution.

The key is stored in template settings and is used to check access to YouTube-Uploader.

Deprecated Items

The old Docs\InputSettings.xml export contains settings that are not present in the current v5.2.0 input_settings.xml:

Old item	Current state
Alternative attestation method	There is no separate toggle anymore. Alternative attestation is tried first automatically, and the template falls back to the standard algorithm if it fails.
Use browser for comment publishing	The setting was removed as obsolete. Social actions are performed by the current template logic.

These items should not be moved into current customer-facing sections.
