Where to Find
 

You can view, upload and manage your files from the Photos and Media Manager. To access the Photos and Media Manager simply click the “MEDIA” option in the main toolbar.

 


Note: We do not support the upload of .exe or .svg files at this time.




 

Uploading Files
 

Uploading a file is a quick process. Simply click the “Upload New Files” button in the top right corner of the Photos and Media Manager. You can use this area to upload any type of file you want to share with your website visitors.



 

You can upload files from your computer or by using our stock photo library by navigating the following tabs:

 
1. Your Uploaded Files
 
Select the folder you wish to upload your file(s) to. If this is left unselected, files will go to the default unsorted categorization.

Drag and drop or click the upload screen to upload files from your computer. 





 

2. Stock Photo Library
 
Browse and search through our extensive stock photo library
Click on a photo to upload to your website and then click “Add To My Uploaded Files” to complete 

Note: You can upload files with spaces in the file name, however, these will be converted to dashes (-) after uploading. This helps avoid potential problems with URLs.

 
 


You can continue to add files in this manner until you are ready to upload them to your account. Files are not added to file folders by default, however, you can select the folder you would like to upload to using the Add to Folder drop-down box prior to uploading.
 
You can also drag and drop files into the Photos and Media Manager, or by clicking in the drag and drop region, this will allow you to browse files you have locally on your computer to be uploaded.
 

Note: Files can be removed from the list of files to be uploaded at any time by clicking the button beside the file.
 
You will return to the main file manager with a list of your uploaded files. These files are now ready for use on your website!


 

3. Managing your Folders
For further information on how to manage your folders within the Photos and Media Manager, please see our wiki article on File Folders.

4. Selecting an Image

There are many places found throughout the SiteBlocks editor, where you will be given the option to select an image for a background, an element, or a content container. You will be given the option to select an image from the File Manager, choose a Stock Image, or upload an image. These options will appear in a toolbar similar to the one below. Each option will bring you to our File Manager where you can find the desired image to add to your page.
