Adding new media

When you have prepared files which you would like to add, you need to go to CONTENT/Media items in CCMS and click the
'New Media' button.



Now you can add new media



In order to add a file it is required to choose the type of upload. 'Single file upload' means uploading one file,'Mass upload' means uploading many files from a compressed ZIP file.

To use 'Mass upload' firstly you have to prepare a compressed ZIP file with media (in example by compressing folder with media). 'Mass upload' is helpful when you have a lot of media to upload at one time. ZIP archive should contain only one type of files (i.e. images, videos, sounds, documents) because all of them will be uploaded to a selected category.
