Level of Permission (Roles)

Available to Tenant, Super Admin, Admin and Content Manager users.

Overview

This section refers to the place where administrators can manage and create image-based content within a Channel. This section provides tools and functionalities to upload, edit, organize, and control image posts.

There are two different views available: grid (default) or list. Administrators have the ability to filter Image posts by:

Categories: upon selecting a Category, a list of the image posts assigned to that specific category will be displayed; and/or
Featured Images: a list of "Featured" or "Non-featured" images.

Depending on the image post publishing settings, it will be displayed in one of the two available tabs:

Published: a list of published (posted) image posts, ordered by published date (newest to oldest). These image posts are available to users;
Draft: a list of image posts that are in an unfinished or preliminary state and have not been published yet. These image posts are not available to users.
