Uploaded images can be placed into product descriptions, category descriptions, web page content, blog posts, or any area within the site builder. The URL of an uploaded image can be used to share the image outside of your store, for example, in an email newsletter.
Image Requirements
Images must meet the following requirements to upload to the Image Manager successfully. Attempting to upload an image that does not meet these requirements can cause unexpected behavior.
Image file names must be alphanumeric and cannot contain any spaces or special characters.
Supported file types are JPEG/JPG, GIF, and PNG.
TIF and PDF files are not supported. You can upload PDFs and files not supported by the Image Manager by uploading them via WebDAV and linking to them from your store.
Images cannot have the same name. Images with the same name will fail to upload.
Uploading
Adding images to the Image manager can be done from the Storefront › Image Manager control panel, then clicking Upload Images.
In the popup, click Choose File (or Browse) and select an image from your computer. Repeat for each additional image, then click Upload.
Viewing
Two drop-down menus in the upper right of the Image Manager page allow you to choose how many images are displayed at once and how they are sorted. You can sort by name, file size, or date modified. This will help you to navigate extensive collections of images.
To see the original size of the image, click View Full Size. To download the full-size image, click Download. You can rename the image in the input box above the image thumbnail.
Deleting
To remove images from the Image Manager, click Delete this Image beneath the image you want to delete. If you want to delete multiple images simultaneously, select the images you want to delete, then click Delete Selected at the top of the page.
