Media

Images and files live in the site media library. Editors pick them through the media picker when editing image fields, image lists, richtext embeds, and similar.

Media picker

In Edit mode, open a field that needs a file:

  1. Use the picker to choose an existing upload or Upload… a new one.
  2. Confirm — the field stores the public URL/path.
  3. Delete on a library item removes the file from the media library (confirm first). This cannot be undone from the picker.

Image list: remove ≠ delete

An image list field holds an ordered list of URLs.

ActionEffect
Remove an image from the listDrops that URL from this field only — the file stays in the library
Delete in the media pickerRemoves the file from the library (other fields may still show a broken image)

Prefer “remove from list” when you only want to rearrange a gallery. Use library Delete when you intend to discard the file itself.

Tips

  • Prefer the picker over pasting opaque paths.
  • After deleting a file, check other widgets that might still show it.
  • ZIP SitePack backups include uploads; rolling checkpoints do not — see Checkpoint & backup.
