Store and organize files and images on your website with Better CMS’ user-friendly Media Manager. To access the Media Manager, click “Site settings” on the side menu and then click “Media Manager.” View all of your folders at once in list view or gallery view by toggling between the icons at the top of the window. From here, you can use the controls to add, delete, or rename a folder and easily upload your images and files. Click “File Name” to sort the folders by file name, or click “File Type” to sort the folders by file type. To upload a new image or file, you can browse and upload from your computer, or simply drag and drop the file into the Media Manager. The Media Manager can also be accessed from the WYSIWYG editor to add images or files directly to a webpage or blog post.

Note: Each time image is resized / cropped, new version of image is stored in file storage. It means, that when image.jpg will be added to content, it will have reference to e.g. image_5.jpg and it will never change. If later image will be cropped or resized, image_5.jpg will be kept on server and new version, e.g.image_8.jpg will be created.
