Drops Collection
To begin creating a "Drops" project, select the second option labeled "Drops: Unique Artwork" on the "Create" page.
Drops: Ideal for creating a varied NFT collection where each token is unique, perfect for creating themed or expressive artwork.
Connecting Your Wallet
Connect your wallet using the "Connect Wallet" button. This step is required to deploy your project and verify your identity through your wallet.
Setting Up Your Drops
After connecting your wallet, click the “Create” button. You will be redirected to the digital collectible creation page. Select the “Drops: Unique Artwork” option and start creating.
The minimum requirements include:
Metadata URL
Project Name
Project Description
Ensure that your wallet has enough funds to cover the blockchain gas fees for deployment.
Form Fields
Here’s a breakdown of the main fields in the form:
1. Metadata URL
To upload a collection that contains a large number of unique artworks, you need to upload your metadata to IPFS (InterPlanetary File System).
If you already have an IPFS link with your metadata prepared, simply paste it in the "Metadata URL" field. If not, please follow our step-by-step guide: “How to Use IPFS” to learn how to properly upload your metadata.
2. Collection Name
Provide a name for your Drops collection. This name will:
Be recorded on the blockchain as part of the smart contract.
Appear on your minting page.
Be visible in marketplaces when NFTs are minted.
While you can modify the minting page name and URL in your project dashboard later, the original name on the blockchain cannot be changed.
3. Token Symbol
Specify an abbreviated identifier for your tokens. For example, choosing "DROP" will display your tokens as DROP #1, DROP #2, and so on.
4. Price
Set the price users will pay to mint an NFT (excluding gas fees). If you want free minting, set this value to 0, allowing users to only cover the protocol fee and gas fees.
5. Supply
Define the supply of NFTs in the Drops collection. Selecting the "Unlimited" checkbox will make the collection unlimited, which you can restrict later.
Make sure the number you enter matches the number of metadata files uploaded to IPFS to avoid issues during minting.
6. Collection Description
Add a description for your collection that will be displayed on the minting page and used as the default description for your tokens on all marketplaces. Individual token descriptions can be customized by yourself in the metadata.
7. Deploying Your Drops Collection
Once deployment is successful, you'll be redirected to the dashboard, where you can continue configuring your collection.
8. Blockchain
Choose the mainnet or testnet for your collection deployment. OmniHub supports most poppular chains, and a search bar is provided for quick selection.
Metadata Media
After successfully uploading the Metadata URL, your artwork images will appear. If the images do not display after adding the URL, please double-check that everything was created correctly.
You can follow the step-by-step guide “How to use IPFS” to ensure your metadata and image files are properly uploaded and formatted.
Deploying Your Drops Collection
To finalize your project, deploy your collection to the selected blockchain network. Here’s what happens during deployment:
Media files are packaged and uploaded to IPFS (InterPlanetary File System).
The smart contract is deployed to the blockchain.
Once deployment is successful, a confirmation modal will appear with further instructions. Follow these steps to complete the process.
Post-Deployment Steps
After deployment, your Editions collection will become active. Your project dashboard will display important details such as:
Mint page
The contract address
Transaction details, with links to view them on the blockchain explorer
