Navigation

At the top of the Image Library, you’ll find the tab navigation where you can choose to upload or select images that are already in your library.

 

Upload

On the Upload panel, you’ll find information about the types of images you can upload, and how many files you can upload at any given time.

At the top right of the Image Library there’s the Save and Close button, which closes the Image Library and saves your changes. The number of currently selected images is also shown here.

Stock

To add Stock Images is simple. Once on the Image Library, select 'Stock'. Then type in the search bar what image kind you would like to add. All stock images inside Shopblocks are from Unsplash.  

 

Once you have selected an image, click the top left icon on the image to download into your library. This will automatically guide you back to the upload tab to check its upload progress.

 

Select

The Library panel is where all your previously uploaded images are stored. From here you can edit or delete an image, as well as select it to use it on the page you are editing.


Click on an image to select it and it will appear selected with a border. Click on the image again to deselect it. You’ll find two buttons with each image, a delete (rubbish bin) button, and an edit button.

Type in the search bar and the Image Library will find all images matching your search term by searching through file names and any text associated with that image (such as ‘alt. text’ you specify on the Edit panel).

Filters

You can use the filters section to narrow down your search or to view images that are associated with products or categories only, for example.
