Manage media in Site Creator (images, videos, documents, etc.)
This guide is about Infomaniak Site Creator, an Infomaniak tool for website creation that includes a media library for your media files (images, videos, documents, etc.).
Accessing Files
To access Site Creator:
- Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) from a web browser like Brave or Firefox.
- Click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate through the left side menu, for example).
- Select Hosting (in the Web & Domain section).
- Click directly on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table.
- Click on Site Creator in the left-side menu.
- Click on Customize my site.
The media library can be accessed from the lower part of the left-side menu under Files:
These media files will be available to you when you edit your pages and want to insert content.
Organize Your Files, Folders, and Subfolders
Keep in mind that you cannot move or rename files.
You cannot delete a folder if it's not completely empty.
Therefore, plan the organization of your media files and their structure before you start creating your website.
Create a New Folder
Use the â‹® action menu at the bottom right of the window:
Upload a New File to the Library
Click on Upload a file to browse your hard drive and upload the desired files:
Common image formats are supported (webp, jpg, jpeg, png, gif, svg, etc.), as well as video formats (mp4, mov, etc.). You can also upload other file types (zip, pdf, etc.) to make them available to visitors using the File Download module, for example.
Open the Image Editor
Hover over an image in the library and click on the pencil icon to access the image editor:
Search for and Use Royalty-Free Images
In the left sidebar of the library, there is a menu item that leads to royalty-free stock images that you can insert into your library to enhance your site:
Protect Your Content
Click on Settings in the left sidebar and then on General Settings.
At the bottom, there is an option that, when enabled, prevents visitors from right-clicking on your site.
Troubleshooting Image/Files Upload
Try to upload the lightest possible JPG or PNG images; there's no need to upload images with a width greater than 1000 pixels.
Make sure your files are not in "300DPI" resolution or higher; you don't need this for your website; it's only for printing purposes.
If you're trying to upload files directly from your camera, try resizing them before uploading; from your iPhone, it might be in HEIF/HEIC format, which is not supported - try converting it to JPG first.
