Coming from Post Haste? Moldum is the next step.
Post Haste (Digital Rebellion) taught a whole generation of editors and photographers to start every project from a folder template. Moldum keeps that idea and adds what everyone ended up missing: the documents inside the folders get filled in too, the projects get numbered, and the template knows what each field is.

Bring your templates over, in one click
Open Templates
In Moldum, go to the Templates section and press “Import from Post Haste…”.
Pick the .pht folder

Done
The tree and the parameters become a Moldum template. Set the destination folder and, if you want, a category to number your projects.
Questions from Post Haste users
Do my Post Haste parameters survive?
Yes. Each Post Haste parameter becomes a Moldum field, and the placeholders in folder and file names are converted.
Can I keep using Post Haste too?
Of course. Importing copies the template; the original stays untouched.
What does the free version include?
Everything Post Haste does plus filled-in documents, numbering and history, with unlimited projects and up to two templates of your own. Pro removes the template limit and unlocks the rest, for €14.90 once.
