Media Selector

These features available on All Plans

Overview

In the Campaign Builder, whenever you'd like to add an image to your campaign—whether it be as a background to a widget, an image inside an Image Widget, or various other places—you'll be directed to the Media Selector to select the image you'd like to use.

In this guide, we'll walk you through how to:

• Upload your own image.
• Use an image from the Pixabay library available at no additional cost.

Getting There

Depending on where you are in the Campaign Builder, accessing the Media Selector will vary slightly:

• When using the Image Widget:
  Open the widget settings and enter the Setup section. There, click the Select Image icon to open the selector.

• When changing the background of a container or widget:
  Open the Style Panel, click the This [Widget Type] tab, then open the Widget section. Click the image icon next to the Widget Background Image field.

• When adding an image to a Rich Text Widget:
  Open the widget settings, then click on the Insert/Edit Image icon at the top of the rich text editor. In the pop-up, click the folder search icon to the right of the Source field.

Selecting Your Image

The Media Selector will pop up in its own window, and from here, you have multiple options:

• Use an existing image.
• Upload your own image.
• Enter a URL that points to an image online.
• Use an image from the Pixabay stock image library.

The general process for all methods is the same:

1. Move the image into your Media Library.
2. Select the image you've moved to use it in your campaign.

Once an image is in your library, you can use the following tools to organize and locate it:

• Asset Count: Displays the number of images in your library in the top-left corner for a quick overview.
• Sorting Options: Sort your images by Newest uploads, Oldest uploads, or by Name.
• Search Bar: Search for images by typing a word or phrase that's part of the image file's name.
• Advanced Filtering: Click the slider bar button to filter images by Tag, Image Size, Date Added, or File Type. Configure your filters and click Apply Filters.
• Image Size Slider: Adjust the thumbnail size of your images for easier browsing.
  Note: This slider doesn’t affect the actual image size, only the thumbnail display.

Using an Existing Image

If you’ve already uploaded your image to the Media Manager, you’re halfway done!

1. Open the Media Selector.
2. Click the thumbnail of the image you want to use (it will be highlighted in gray with a blue outline).
3. Click Use Selected.
