How it looks
The file manager will open over the editor and cover the entire working area. This allows you to browse your files without worrying about your screen size or resolution.
You will find a top section with actions and navigation helpers, with most of the space used to list your files and the information you need to work with them. Here is a visual example.
How you access it
The file manager will load in several scenarios. See examples below.
When you click on the Browse button in an image placeholder, which is displayed when you drag and drop an image content block into a message
When you click the Change Image button in the image properties panel
When you click on Link file when working with images and buttons
How To Upload Files
The quickest way to upload a file into the file manager is to drag it from your computer to the file manager window and dropping it into the upload area.
How To Import Files From Other Applications
The Import from feature allows you to connect to and import from external applications like DropBox, Google Drive, Instagram.
How To Browse or Search Files
To locate an image or document, browse your folders and order their content by name, date, size or type by clicking on the sort labels on top of the list.
An arrow icon next to this label means that this is the current filter, and its orientation will tell you the order, ascending or descending.
Too many files in the selected folder? Click on the lens icon to run a search. Mind that this search is performed only in the current folder, and not in your entire repository.
How To Use Files
When you move your cursor over a file or folder, that row will be highlighted and the available action icons will be shown on the right side:
- insert and preview for files
- delete for both files and folders
If an action is momentarily not available, you will be notified by the tooltip text of the icon, such as when you try to delete a folder that contains files, because only empty folders can be deleted.
If you want to delete multiple files or folders, use the checkboxes to select them, the delete action will be shown on top of the list. Only elements that can be deleted will have a selectable checkbox.
How To Organize Folders
To add new folders, use the Add folder icon.
For your folder names, you can use letters (upper and lower case), numbers, spaces, periods (.), hyphens (-), or underscores (_).
To navigate to the parent folder use the top breadcrumb. Clicking the home icon will take you to your root folder.
