File selector of SiteW

When you add an Image, a Gallery, a Music, a Video, a Map or a Download block to your website, you will have to use our file selector. The File selector is the library containing all the files, that can be directly added to your website.

2 types of files

The File selector allows you to view and select 2 types of files:

Personal files (click on My Cloud files)

These files are stored in the storage space of your SiteW account. You can send new files by clicking on Upload Files, in order to select a file from your computer, or by drag and dropping it directly into the File selector. Moreover, a function allows you to pick your personal files from other storage services (such as DropBox, Google Drive, Facebook...).

Public files (click on Public files)

This tab allows you to find very easily royalty-free files on various sharing sites (Youtube or Flickr). You can also search for files, using various ways, depending on the type of files that you want.

You also have the possibility to pick files (videos and images) from storage services such as Youtube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Pixabay, Flickr and OpenClipart.
