How to replace exising pictures or attached files
If you want to replace the pictures or attached files you already have on your site with others, the easiest way is:
- On the front end navigate to the page that contains your images.
- Add "/_edit" to the URL in your browser address bar, click GO, and log-in. The "Content's Standard" screen will open.
- Select the "Attachments" tab. The "Attachments" screen will open.
- Click on the name of the picture that you want to replace, the "Edit File" screen will open.
- Near the top of the screen is an "Overwrite?" text box, with a browse button. Use it to browse to your replacement picture.
- Click commit.
- Your replacement picture should load into the system replacing the existing one.
CAUTION:
Sometimes the picture does not actually load, (and there is no warning). [It's due to interruptions on the Internet, and can be a problem with big files]
So look at the "file size" and "last updated" information (just above the commit button)
If your picture has not updated, just go through the above steps 5), 6), 7) again. |
