# Workshop Collections for PropHunt
## Recommended Workshop Collections
Here are some popular PropHunt workshop collections you can use:
### How to Use Workshop Collections
1. Go to Steam Workshop: https://steamcommunity.com/app/4000/workshop/
2. Create a new collection or find an existing PropHunt collection
3. Copy the collection ID from the URL (the number at the end)
4. Set the `WORKSHOP_COLLECTION` environment variable or add to server.cfg:
```
host_workshop_collection "YOUR_COLLECTION_ID"
```
### ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Collection vs Addon IDs
**The WORKSHOP_COLLECTION setting MUST be a Collection ID, NOT an individual addon ID!**
To verify your ID is correct:
1. Go to: `https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=YOUR_ID`
2. Look at the page - it should say **"Collection"** at the top
3. If it says "Addon" or shows a single item, it's NOT a collection!
**If you use an addon ID instead of a collection ID, you'll see this error:**
```
Processing collection XXXXX...
Item is not a collection!
Collection 'Name' (0 items)
Reported 0 items, skipping
```
**Fix:** Create your own collection containing the addons you want, or find an existing PropHunt collection.
### Essential Content to Include
Your workshop collection should include:
#### Maps
- ph_office
- ph_restaurant
- ph_hotel

#### Required Content (if not using CSS mount)

4. Add items by browsing the workshop and clicking "Add to Collection"
5. Make sure the collection is **PUBLIC**
