Media library

Every picture and PDF your site uses, in one place: upload once, use anywhere.

Uploading#

  1. Open Media and press Upload — or drag files from your computer onto the page.
  2. Pictures can be JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF or AVIF, up to 15 MB each. PDFs can be up to 100 MB.

Pictures are resized and converted to a lighter format automatically, so a phone photo loads quickly on a reader's phone. The location hidden in a photo's data is removed before it's stored.

Finding a file#

Search by file name, alt text or caption, and use All files, Images or PDFs to narrow the list.

Alt text, caption and credit#

Click a file to open its details:

  • Alt text describes the picture for readers who can't see it, and for search engines. Write it in each of your languages.
  • Default caption is filled in whenever the picture is added to a story; you can still change it there.
  • Credit names the photographer or agency — *PTI*, *Reuters*, *Staff*.
  • Copy link copies the file's address; Open opens it in a new tab.

Press Save to keep your changes.

Deleting#

Select a file, press Delete, then Really delete?. A file that's still in use — as a story's cover, a logo, a byline photo — can't be deleted until you remove it there; the message says where.

Storage#

Each plan includes 5, 15 or 25 GB (Starter, Growth, Pro). Home shows how much you've used under Media storage.
