The Media libraries module enables storing of various files, such as photos, audios, videos, package files, presentation files, etc. This means that not only media files, but also other types of files can be stored in media libraries. Media libraries can either be global or related to a particular group.

 

However, the Media libraries module is not the only way to store files of various kinds within the system. There are other ways available of dealing with files in Kentico CMS. Please refer to the Content management -> File management chapter of this guide for more details.

 

If you would like to learn how to create media libraries, please refer to the Creating media library topic in the Media libraries chapter of the Developer's Guide.

If you would like to learn how to upload files to your media libraries, how to manage these files and what file types are supported, please refer to the Media library content subchapter in the same chapter of the Developer's Guide.

If you would like to learn how to use the Media gallery web part and the built-in WYSIWYG editor in your media libraries, please refer to the Displaying files from media library subchapter.

If you would like to learn how to adjust your media library settings and how to configure your media library custom storage, custom file types and the maximal uploaded file size, please refer to the Settings subchapter.

If you would like to learn how to assign media library permissions and how to deal with secured and non-secured libraries on your site, please refer to the Security subchapter.

 

More examples of the use of the Media libraries module are available in Kentico CMS Community Site Guide, as described here.
