Use existing Pictures already uploaded? Can't Post

 
Is there any way to use existing pictures that are already uploaded instead of reuploading and creating duplicate of the files in the upload directory?

Thank you!

Hi

Thanks for posting!

Article Manager is actually setup to attach each image to a single article, however, you can use the image tool with Article Manager’s WYSIWYG editor. Basically, the image tool asks you for a URL so you would just need to give it the URL to an image in your uploads folder.

The one thing to watch out for here is that if you remove an article, all the images that you uploaded through it will be deleted so any other articles that point to the same images will end up with broken images.

Does that make sense? Give it a shot and let me know how you make out Smile.
