Solved

Hi There,

 

We're migrating to Shopify 2.0 because it looks to have proper content management but are totally confused about how to manage your image library...

  1. How do you rename an image?
  2. How do you replace an image and have it update across your entire site? 
  3. How do you even delete an image (e.g. to remove confusion)?

Sorry if we're missing something basic but we couldn't see any info here:  https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/images/theme-images


Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated. Cheers, Ben

Thanks @KetanKumar, your help is very much appreciated.

 

So I can delete files from Settings but can't replace/rename/organise them? For some reason, I thought Shopify 2.0 was going to fix Shopifys' content management issues?

 

If anyone from Shopify ever reads this, can you imagine trying to complete daily work when you can't rename or replace files, and where the only way to delete them is from System Settings?

 

It'd drive you absolutely crazy - right?

At Shopify Unite 2021 they teased a new content management system but since then we have heard NOTHING.  So little that it almost seems like it's not even being acknowledged and that it has been scrapped or completely delayed. 

 

The current content system is completely broken.  To add an image from the customization screen requires you to look through a list of images that's in chronological order from date of update (similar to the files list under settings).  So to add an image that's used on another page requires wading through the list until you find it.  It's actually easier to just upload it again from your original source, but that just makes the problem worse.

 

At any rate, since we need help now we either need to invest in another CMS but I don't want to do that if help is around the corner.
