How to Create an NFT Collection on OmniHub

OmniHub is a multichain NFT launchpad that lets users create collections and deploy NFT collections through a no-code interface. The platform's Create page guides users through collection setup, chain selection, mint settings, and deployment, with support for AI-assisted artwork generation and both Editions and Drops collection formats.

This guide explains the full creation flow on OmniHub and the key settings users should prepare before deploying a collection. It is the recommended step-by-step article for first-time creators and teams running ecosystem campaigns.

Before you start

Before creating a collection, make sure you have:

  • a wallet connected (required for deployment)
  • enough funds for blockchain gas fees
  • a collection name and token symbol
  • artwork or a metadata URL (depending on collection type)
  • a short collection description
  • a target chain (mainnet or testnet)

OmniHub’s docs also note that the wallet connection acts as your authenticator, so there is no separate username and password step for deployment.

Choose your collection type

OmniHub supports two main collection formats:

Editions (Same Artwork)

Use Editions when every mint should be the same artwork (for example, multiple copies of one piece). The Create page labels this as "Edition: Same Artwork", and the docs describe it as the right format for a single artwork or multiple copies of the same piece.

Best for:

  • open editions
  • limited editions
  • single-artwork collections
  • simple creator drops

Drops (Unique Artwork)

Use Drops when each mint should be unique. The Create page labels this as "Drop: Unique Artwork", and the docs describe it as ideal for varied collections where each token is different.

Best for:

  • generative or themed collections
  • collections with many unique pieces
  • projects using IPFS-hosted metadata

Step-by-step - creating your collection on OmniHub

Step 1 - Open the Create page and connect your wallet

Go to the OmniHub Create page and connect your wallet. OmniHub docs confirm wallet connection is required to deploy and verify the project through your wallet.

Step 2 - Select Editions or Drops

Choose the collection format that matches your use case:

  • Editions: Same Artwork for repeated copies of one artwork
  • Drops: Unique Artwork for collections where each NFT is unique

This choice affects what content you need to prepare (single artwork vs metadata URL for a unique collection).

Step 3 - Add artwork or use Ask AI

On the Create page, OmniHub supports both manual uploads and an Ask AI option. The interface also shows upload guidance, including recommended file size and supported image formats (JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, up to 5MB).

OmniHub docs also describe the AI assistant as part of the core creation flow and note that OmniHub guides users through metadata and rarity setup while handling IPFS upload in the process.

Step 4 - Fill in the core collection fields

The Create flow includes key fields such as:

  • Collection name
  • Token symbol
  • Price
  • Supply (including unlimited option)
  • Collection description
  • Blockchain / Select chain

OmniHub docs clarify that the collection name is recorded on-chain and used on the mint page and marketplaces. They also note that while the mint page name/URL can later be changed in the dashboard, the original blockchain collection name is permanent.

Step 5 - Configure advanced settings

The Create page includes an Advanced setting section, where users can configure mint schedule, royalties, per-address limits, and transferability. These settings are important for launch structure, collector limits, and distribution rules.

Step 6 - Select the chain and deploy

Choose your target chain (mainnet or testnet, depending on your launch plan) and click Deploy. The Create page explicitly frames this as deploying an ERC-721 contract before launch.

OmniHub docs also remind users to keep enough funds in the wallet to cover gas fees for deployment.

Required inputs by collection type

Editions - minimum requirements

According to OmniHub docs, the minimum requirements for an Editions collection are:

  • Project Name
  • Project Description
  • At least one artwork
  • Wallet funds for gas fees

Drops - minimum requirements

According to OmniHub docs, the minimum requirements for a Drops collection are:

  • Metadata URL
  • Project Name
  • Project Description
  • Wallet funds for gas fees

For Drops, OmniHub docs specifically note that large unique collections typically use an IPFS metadata URL, and they link to a dedicated "How to Use IPFS" guide.

Important field notes

Collection name is important

The collection name is stored on-chain and used in the mint page and marketplaces, so choose it carefully before deployment. OmniHub docs explicitly state the on-chain name cannot be changed later.

Token symbol affects token display

The token symbol defines how NFTs are labeled (for example, ART #1, DROP #2), so it should be short and consistent with your project branding.

Price and fees are not the same

OmniHub docs note that the Price field sets the mint price excluding protocol and gas fees. For a free mint, users can set price to 0 while collectors still pay protocol/gas costs where applicable.

Supply can be fixed or unlimited

The Create page and docs support a supply value plus an Unlimited option, which is useful for open editions and campaign-based mints.

Editions vs Drops - which one should you choose?

Choose Editions if:

  • you want one artwork repeated across many mints
  • you want a simpler setup
  • you are launching a creator edition or open edition

Choose Drops if:

  • each NFT should be unique
  • you already prepared metadata on IPFS
  • you are launching a larger collection with varied artworks

Best practices before you deploy

1) Finalize your name and symbol first

Because the on-chain collection name is permanent, decide naming and symbol before deploying.

2) Prepare visuals and metadata early

For Editions, make sure at least one artwork is ready. For Drops, prepare your IPFS metadata URL before opening the form to speed up deployment.

3) Double-check chain and launch settings

Review your selected chain, mint schedule, royalties, and per-address limits in Advanced settings before clicking Deploy.

4) Keep gas funds in your wallet

OmniHub docs explicitly note that wallet funds are required for deployment gas fees in both Editions and Drops flows.
