# Collectionless Collection
|
|
|
|
The `collectionless` Default Collection File is used to create a
|
|
[Collectionless collection](../../files/builders/plex.md#plex-collectionless) to help Show/Hide Movies/Shows properly in
|
|
your library.
|
|
|
|
![](../images/collectionless.png)
|
|
|
|
## Requirements & Recommendations
|
|
|
|
Supported Library Types: Movie, Show
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
|
|
* This file needs to run last under `collection_files`.
|
|
|
|
* All other normal collections must use `collection_mode: hide_items`.
|
|
|
|
* Disable the `Minimum automatic collection size` option when using the `Plex Movie` Agent. (Use the
|
|
[`franchise` Default](../movie/franchise.md) for automatic collections)

## Config
|
|

|
template_variables:
|

collection_mode: hide_items

collection_files:

```
|
|

|
## Template Variables
|
|
|
|
Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to
|
|
make your own local copy.
|
|
|
|
Note that the `template_variables:` section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults
|
|
work. Any value not specified will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.
|
|
|
|
