How do I upload files?

You will have files in the library, ready to use.

Before you start

You need permission to upload media. Open the folder you want the files in first; with "All files" selected they are left unfiled.

Steps

1. Open Media Library.
2. Drag files onto Drop files here or click to upload, or click it and pick files. Several at once is fine.
3. Watch the rows: Queued, a percentage, then Processing… and Done.
4. Open each image afterwards and add alt text (see the alt text guide).

What you will see

Finished rows disappear after a moment and the files appear in the grid, newest first. Image copies and a blur placeholder are made in the background, so they may show up a little later.

If something goes wrong

• Accepted: JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, PDF, text, CSV, MP4/WebM/Ogg. Not accepted: SVG, HEIC, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, zip.
• "File is too large. The maximum is …" The limit is 200 MB or the lower one set in Settings.
• "The file contents do not match its type" means the file is renamed or damaged.
• Error rows stay until you press Clear. The cross on a queued row cancels it.
• Uploading the same file twice makes two records with no warning.
