Adding Images Manually

Permalink
Is there a way to update my images without having to go through the process of uploading the images each time I make a change to them? For example, if I have a logo that I've added to the page via the Concrete5 file manager, I should be able to re-write the image when I save it from my graphics program and have the new changes take effect. The way it works now is, I have to upload the file again (which makes another copy) and choose the new image.

Maybe I'm missing something, but can this be done?

if you're using the file manager in 5.3 all you have to do is click the file in question and choose "replace file"

Is there a way to do a Save AS in Picnik. There are times I would like to take an image already on the website and make it a different size for use in another area.

Maybe I explained my situation wrong. What I'd like to do is update my graphics file and upload it via FTP to a particular location on my web server and have that image become the new one when it overwrites the old one. That's the way it's done with Wordpress, Joomla,and Drupal.

no reason you can't replace a file in the file system directly by hand via ftp if you really want to.

of course, you wouldn't have version info applied to that as the new file manager would do if you simply used its nice GUI replace file feature.

you can also load a whole mess of files in at once by ftp'ing them to a central location and importing them through "more" next to upload..

That (ftp, then "importing" images into the file manager) was exactly the answer I was looking for.
