How to Open the Add Media

When composing a one-off post or adding a post to a library, look for the media icon in the post editor toolbar and click Add Media.

Note: Generated images can be added to your post alongside any other uploaded or selected media.

How to Select Multiple Files from Different Sources

The media box includes a selection cart at the bottom of the screen. This lets you pick files from more than one source before adding anything to your post.

Here is how it works:

  1. Open any media source tab and select your files. The selected count appears in the top-right corner of the box (e.g., 4 selected).
  2. Switch to another source tab. Your earlier selections stay in the cart.
  3. Continue adding files from other sources as needed.
  4. Review the selected files shown at the bottom of the box. Click the × on any thumbnail to remove it, or click Clear to remove all selections.
  5. When you are ready, click Add [X] media to post to attach all selected files to your post at once.
