As an experienced website operation expert who is well-versed in AnQiCMS, I know that high-quality, rich media content is the core to attract and retain users.In AnQiCMS, whether it is to insert images, videos, or efficiently use the material library, the system provides intuitive and powerful tools.Next, I will elaborate on how to perform these operations in AnQiCMS to ensure your content is both vivid and attractive.

Multimedia insertion in the content editor

The AnQiCMS content editor is the main interface you use to publish articles, products, or page content.It integrates various functions, allowing you to easily embed images and videos into text.

When you are creating or editing a document, you will find that the editor toolbar provides 'Image Insert' and 'Video Insert' buttons. These are your direct entry points for adding visual elements.

After clicking the 'Image Insert' button, the system will open a window that allows you to perform two main operations: upload a new image or select from an existing image library.If you choose to upload a new image, the system will automatically handle the storage of the image and add it to your image resource library.If you wish to reuse an image that you have previously uploaded, you can directly browse and select it from the resource library.AnQiCMS also has an intelligent recognition feature. If you do not manually upload a thumbnail in the content, the system will automatically grab the first image in the content as the thumbnail for the document, which is very convenient for quick content publishing.

Similarly, click the "Video Insert" button to embed video content into your article.Generally, this involves entering the URL link of the input video (such as from YouTube, Bilibili, and other video platforms) or uploading your own video file.The system will handle the embedding logic of the video, ensuring it plays normally on the frontend page.

Efficiently utilize image resource management

AnQiCMS provides a centralized 'Image Resource Management' feature, located under the 'Page Resources' module in the backend. This is the 'home' for all your image and video assets.

In the image resource management interface, you can perform unified management of all uploaded media files. This includes but is not limited to:

  • Batch upload and categorize:You can upload multiple images at once and create different categories as needed (such as 'product images', 'news illustrations', 'banner images', etc.), categorize and organize the images for easy search and use later.
  • View and edit image information: Each image has its detailed information page, where you can view the file name, file type, upload time, file size, resolution, and more.It is also very useful that you can replace the image here while keeping the image URL unchanged, which is very helpful when you need to update the image but do not want to change the link.
  • Batch operations: For a large number of images, you can perform batch deletion or batch transfer to a specified category, greatly improving management efficiency.

Image resource management is not just about storage, but also for the convenience of content creation.In the content editor, through the 'Uploaded image resources, etc.' option, you can directly call all media files in this library, without the need for repeated uploads, ensuring the reusability and consistency of media assets.

The value of the content material library

In addition to independent image and video files, AnQiCMS also has the 'Content Material Management' feature, which you can find under the 'Feature Management' module.The content library is slightly different from directly inserting images and videos, as it focuses more on managing reusable content blocks.

The content library allows you to create preset content snippets that include text, images, and even specific layouts.Imagine if you had a fixed product description template, a company contact information block, or a featured service introduction. All these can be stored as materials.

When editing documents, you can directly select and insert these pre-set materials from the paragraph library.This not only ensures consistency of content, reduces redundant work, but also accelerates the content publishing process.The content in the material library can include images, so through the material library, you can also indirectly insert images that are already part of the material.

Media Optimization Considerations

As website operators, we not only need to pay attention to the richness of the content, but also to the performance of the website. AnQiCMS provides a variety of image optimization features in the 'Content Settings' section of the backend:

  • Remote Image Download:You can set whether to automatically download remote images, which helps with localizing content assets and controlling them.
  • WebP Image Format Conversion:Enable this feature and the system will automatically convert uploaded JPG, PNG, and other images to a smaller WebP format, effectively reducing storage space and speeding up page loading.
  • Large image automatic compression:To avoid the page loading being affected by large images, you can set the system to automatically compress large images to a specified width.
  • Thumbnail processing method:The system provides various thumbnail generation methods (such as scaling proportionally by the longest edge, cropping by the shortest edge, etc.), ensuring that thumbnails achieve **effectiveness** in various display scenarios.

With these features, you can ensure that the inserted images provide a rich visual experience while also adhering to the **practices** of website performance optimization.

Summary

AnQiCMS provides a comprehensive multimedia content management solution for website operators.From the instant insertion from the content editor to the centralized management of image resources library, to the reuse of content material library, and the powerful optimization settings on the backend, every step aims to simplify your workflow and improve the efficiency and quality of content publishing.Mastering these tools will make your website content more vibrant and professional, thereby attracting and retaining users better.

Common Questions (FAQ)

1. Why does the image I uploaded look compressed or blurred when it loads on the front-end page?

This is usually because you have enabled 'Auto-compress large images' or 'WebP image format conversion' in the 'Content Settings' on the background, or have set a specific 'Thumbnail size'.These settings are designed to optimize website loading speed and save storage space.If you want the image to display at its original size, you can check and adjust these settings.In addition, the image resource detail page will also prompt whether the image has been automatically resized due to its large size.If you have updated the content settings, sometimes you need to clear the local browser cache to see the latest effects.

Can I directly reference image and video links from other websites in the article content? How will the system handle it?

How can I quickly find and reuse the images I have uploaded before, without needing to re-upload them every time?

You can enter the 'Image Resource Management' by going to the 'Page Resources' module in the backend.Here, all the images you have uploaded will be listed. You can search by filename or filter by categories on the left.When editing content, when you click the 'Image Insert' button, the popup window also provides the function to select images from this image library directly, allowing you to reuse existing media files without the need to upload them again.
