Browse Media
On this page you can browse through the media available in the project. You can switch between grid and list view.You also can search for media by typing text in the text-field. You can search in file name, tags and metadata.
To edit metadata or replace media click "edit" below (grid view) or next (list view) of the media-item.
Search Media
On this page you can search for specific media items. You can search for filename, title, location, photographer or tags. You do not need tot type the full text, you can also search for parts of words.Edit media
On this page you can edit or enter meta data from the media items in the project (title, location, photographer and tags). You can enter multiple tags separated by comma's.Also you can replace the media file with a different one. The metadata and tags will be retained. Be aware that this will replace this media file with the new one everywhere in the project where it is linked. When you want to replace a media file only in specific modules then go to this module and detach the media file there. After detaching you can then upload and link a new media file for the specific module.
At the bottom of the edit-page you can see in which modules the media-item is used. From here you cannot change these relations. To do so you have tot go to the specific module.
