Images
Images can help enhance the visual look and feel of your website and can be a great way to compliment your written content. Just remember that while images are great visual aids, they should never fully replace text.
Upload an image
Before you can add an image to a content page, you need to upload the image to the 'Media' area in the Govstack back office.
Add an image using the gallery component
The Gallery component allows you to add single or multiple images to a content page on your website. Explore the Gallery component to learn more.
Add an image in a text component
To add an image to a Text component, you need to:
- Place your cursor in the Text component where you'd like to insert the image
- Select the 'Media Picker' icon from the edit toolbar
- This will open the 'Media' folder
- From here, choose the folder that contains the image you'd like to add to the text area
- Select the image you'd like to insert
- This will open the 'Edit selected media' slide-out panel
- From here, you can add alternative text for the image in the 'alternative text (optional)' field and an image caption in the 'caption (optional)' field. Alternative text is required by the accessibility regulations in many jurisdictions.
- Choose the 'Select' button to insert the image
Before you close the text component, make sure to select the 'Submit' button to save any changes you've made.
