What is the Content Manager?
The Content Manager is a central environment where you can store, organise, and share your images with all users within your MailBlue account. You can use the Content Manager to upload, organise, search for files, and share images from shared forms and campaigns.
Where to find the Content Manager?
In this section, we describe where you can find the Content Manager within your MailBlue account:
- Go to the menu on the left side of your screen and click on 'Campaigns'.
- In the submenu click on 'Content'. Here you will find the Content Manager.
Content Manager capabilities
Below you will find all the capabilities within the Content Manager.
Central location
The Content Manager has its own place within the campaign section of your account. This allows users to manage all their visual material from a single location.
Bulk actions
Through bulk actions, users can select multiple images to perform various actions with a single click. For example, you can select four images and then drag them all to a folder, delete, or export them.
Bulk upload
With bulk upload, you can add multiple images at once to the Content Manager. This feature is available in both the centralised Content Manager and the design environment of your campaign.
Folder structure
You can add personalised folders with a folder structure to organise your images. Users can access these folders from the central Content Manager or via the design environment of the campaigns. If you delete a folder, the folder disappears, but the images in the folder remain.
Keywords
Users can tag images with memorable search terms using keywords, such as 'dog' or 'beach'. Once an image is tagged, users can search for these keywords to find the image or to perform bulk actions on all images that match the keyword.
The search function
Users can use the search function to find images that match a title or keyword associated with them.
Sorting function
The sorting function allows you to sort your images from new to old, old to new, large to small, small to large, or in alphabetical order from A to Z. This can be used in tile view or list view. Please note that this function is not available from the campaign builder. It can only be accessed from the Content Manager itself.
Tile / list view
Users can switch between tile and list view to see their images in one of the two displays. Both options display a maximum of 20 images per page.
