Media

Base CMS offers an image upload and editing tool for the modification of supported image file types

Files can be added directly from the "Media" slot on a piece of content:

When you select "Upload", a window overlay will pop up that allows you to choose a file to upload from your computer. You cannot upload a file with a URL, or by selecting an image that was uploaded to a separate piece of content.

Once an image has been successfully uploaded, you have the ability to embed it in the body. Instructions on embedding images can be found here.

Editing Uploaded Images

Select the image you wish to edit:

Example of how "Photo Credit" and "Caption" appear on the website

Primary Image

When an image is set a "Primary", it will be the primary image that's displayed across the site, meaning it will be the image that displays at the top of it's content page, and as thumbnails on associated pages like so:

By default, the first image you upload will be set as "Primary"

"Is Logo"

This setting will display the image differently on the front-end website, ensuring that the image itself isn't getting "cut-off" around the site.

In this example, the bottom two have the Is Logo parameter set, the top two do not.

Even if your site doesn't currently utilize this feature, we recommend selecting "Is Logo" if the image is, in fact, a logo. That way, when this feature is rolled out, the effects will become retroactive to the images you've already tagged as a logo.
