2. UPLOAD IMAGES IN BULK

• On your computer place all of the images that you would like to upload into a folder.
• Compress the folder as a .zip file:
  • PC: Press and hold (or right-click) the file or folder, select (or point to) Send to, and then select Compressed (zipped) folder. A new zipped folder is created in the same location.
  • Mac: Right mouse click and select "Compress Folder Name". A new zipped folder is created in the same location.
• Rename the zipped folder to: import_files.zip.
• Go to the MOBLE 'Files' 
• In the top right hand corner click '+ Add File'.
• Choose the zip file named import_files.zip.
• Assign the file 'Type' to 'Image'.
• Tag the Images. All images will be tagged at once.
  E.g. If the images are a Photoshoot, Tag the images once and all images will automatically be tagged and assigned your Photo Gallery Widgets, without you having to even go to the page!
  
• Click 'Save' in the top right, and your images will now start to upload.
• Depending on the size of your file, uploading images in bulk might take some time. Wait until the file has finished uploading. Do not close your browser.
• Once uploaded, your images will now appear in the 'Files' area. Refresh your Browser if you don't see all the images. Again it might take a minute or so to upload them all.
• You may now edit images individually, should you wish to.
  

3. UPLOAD IMAGES IN THE VISUAL PAGE EDITOR

First, in the Visual Page Editor:

• Add an Image Component to a Frame via the '+' icon in the Frame Tools
• Note, you can also drag in an Image Component from the 'Build' tab in the 'Layouts' drawer. Though, we find the '+' in the Frame tools is much more efficient than drag and drop, every second counts!

Second, whe the Image Component pops up: 

• Upload a new Image from your computer.
• The Image and Image Properties such as Title, Alternative Text and Tags will be automatically added to the Files area, and therefore used as the Default Properties for the image.
• Browse an existing image from the Files area. Now you can override the Image Properties such as Alternative Text, so that it is customised for this single instance of the image, even though it is the same Image. A great solution for saving space, site speed, and SEO. You keep one image but optimise specifically in different instances.

Did you know?

• In adition to adding an Image Component, you can also and an Image to the Background of any Frame. Learn more about Background Images here.
  
  

WHAT IS THE FILE URL AND WHAT IS A CDN?

When you upload an image or file, it is uploaded into the cloud and is given its own URL. You can paste the URL into a browser just like any other web page.

Your MOBLE website has a Content Delivery Network to store images on Amazon Web Services (AWS). 

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a distributed network of servers and your images are mirrored across these servers. The advantage with your images across so many server locations is that they can be distributed to your users in the quickest possible time, no matter what country your users are located in. This is particularly important for images since they are larger files, shaving precious time off your page load speeds.
