Media library

Upload images, videos and PDFs once and use them anywhere — products, banners, galleries, pages and the blog.

Updated 1 min read Markdown

The media library holds every image, video and PDF on your store. Wherever a screen offers Select from Media Folder, you can pick from it instead of uploading again.

The media library
Media Library: tabs for images, videos and PDFs

Upload#

  1. Go to Media → Media and select Add New.
  2. Choose what to upload:
    • Images — several at a time;
    • Video — one at a time;
    • PDF — one at a time.
  3. Upload. Images are converted to WebP automatically, which keeps them sharp and quick to load.

Switch between the Images, Videos and PDFs tabs to browse. The bin on a file deletes it.

Use a file#

On any form with Select from Media Folder (or Select Multiple from Media Folder), the library opens: pick the file and select Add Selected Files (or the file itself).

Upload a PDF — a size chart, a catalogue, a care guide — and link to it from a page, a menu or a product description.

Good files#

  • Photos — JPG or PNG, around 1000–2000 pixels wide, under about 2 MB each.
  • Videos — MP4, short clips, as small as you can make them. Embed long videos from YouTube instead.
  • File names — blue-silk-saree.jpg rather than IMG_2047.jpg; the name is part of the file's address.

Allowed types are listed in Limits and file types.
