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 items by typing text in the text-field. You can search by file name, tags and metadata.To edit metadata or replace media click "edit" at the right of the filename.
To delete media check the checkboxes of the media you want to delete from the project and click "delete" at the bottom of the page.
Please be aware that these images are very likely referred to from various modules in the project: Taxon editor, Multi-entry key, Single-access key, Introduction, etc.
Search media
On this page you can search for media items. You can search by filename, title, location, photographer or tags. You do not need tot type the full text, you can also search for parts of words.To edit metadata or replace media click "edit" at the right of the filename.
Edit media
On this page you can edit or enter meta data of the media items in the project (title, location, photographer and tags). You can enter multiple tags separated by commas.Also you can replace the media file with a different one. The metadata and tags will be retained. Be aware that this will replace the media file with the new one everywhere in the project where it is linked. When you want to replace a media file only in a specific module and associated item (species, glossary entry, etc.) 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 and associated item (species, glossary entry, etc.).
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 and associated item (species, glossary entry, etc.)..
