Do I Need to Create my Authors, Tags and Other Elements Before Creating Media Items?

Although having an author is a required field, this doesn’t mean that you must abandon all your hard work and set up an author first.

If you don’t have any authors or categories/tags set up yet, you can always add them as you go, by pressing the red plus button next to each relevant field, this will open another add page on top of the one you’re working on. 

This page is where you can enter all the relevant information to set up your author/category/tag. Once you are finished, click Save and the page will close.
