# UK Content Rating Default Metadata File
The `- pmm: content_rating_uk` Metadata File is used to dynamically create collections based on the content ratings available in your library.
If you do not use the UK-based rating system within Plex, this file will attempt to match the standard ratings (such as PG-13) to the respective UK rating system (such as 12)
Example Collections Created:
![](../images/content_rating_uk.png)
The below YAML in your config.yml will create the collections:
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
metadata_path:
- pmm: content_rating_uk
```
## Template Variables
Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file from the default settings which are provided.
Note that the `templates_variables:` section only needs to be used if you do NOT want to use the default settings.
Below are the available variables which can be used to customize the file.
| sort_by | Controls the sort method for the collections | `release.desc` | Any sort method in the [Sorts Options Table](#sort-options) |
| collection_section | Controls the sort order of these collections against other default collections | `10` | Any number |
| collection_mode | Controls the collection mode of these collections | `default` | `default` - Library default<br/>`hide` - Hide Collection<br/>`hide_items`- Hide Items in this Collection<br/>`show_items` - Show this Collection and its Items |
| use_other | Controls whether an "Other" collection is created for any items not included in the initial criteria | `true` | `true` or `false` |
| use_separator | Controls whether a separator is created | `true` | `true` or `false` |
| sep_style | Sets the theme of the separator | `orig` | `orig`, `blue`, `gray`, `green`, `purple`, `red`, `stb` |
| item_radarr_tag | Radarr Tag for existing items | | list of tag(s) to be applied to existing items |
| item_sonarr_tag | Sonarr Tag for existing items | | list of tag(s) to be applied to existing items |

Dynamic Collections attributes can also be edited to tweak the setup of the collections. The YAML file which creates the `genre` collections can be found [here](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/blob/defaults/defaults/both/genre.yml)
An example of this is; to map the "Children" genre to "Family", the following template variable can be used:

Dynamic Collections attributes can also be edited to tweak the setup of the collections. The YAML file which creates the `year` collections can be found [here](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/blob/defaults/defaults/both/year.yml)
An example of this is; to include the previous 20 years (default is 10), the following template variable can be used:
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
metadata_path:
- pmm: year
template_variables:
data:
starting: current_year-20
```
