Manage-pages:Link media

From Site Foundry

What is linking media?

To provide linking to multiple sources of media across an installation of Site Foundry, the media manager works in with each page (and module, provided this is accounted for). You will find that there is a button labelled Link Media at the bottom of the item that is being viewed (see the image to the right).

Using this function, administrators can browse all media assets uploaded to the application, and link these as many times as required across the site, resizing them without loosing the original asset as it was uploaded.

How to link media

1. To link media, click on Manage pages or module used to edit a particular item of content.
2. Click on the name of the item that you are looking to edit.
3. Click the Link Media button located at the bottom of the item view.
4. This will display a folder delimited view of media uploaded to the application.
5. Click the link media link located beneath the item of media you require to be linked.
6. The media resource will now be linked to your item of content.

Once you've linked an item of media to a module, see here for more info on how to manage this linked media.
