Metafiles in Kentico CMS are files stored together with system objects. Typical examples of metafiles are:
•E-commerce product images
•web part thumbnails
•widget thumbnails
•page template thumbnails
•etc.
All these files can be edited using WebDAV Edit mode — in the respective fields, you can find the Edit in client application () icon, just as highlighted in the screenshot below. Clicking the icon opens the document for editing in a client application (if there is an application for the particular file type installed on the client machine and if the application supports WebDAV).
The following metafiles can be edited by site editors with appropriate module permissions:
