Image

The Image content element can be added to a content page, product page, product list page and system pages in Sana Admin.

Using the Image content element, you can easily add an image where you want it to appear on the page by selecting the necessary image from the file manager. If it is not there yet, upload the image. This way you can make your content look brighter and more engaging for your customers.

Content Tab

The table below provides the description of the Image content element fields.

Field

Description

Select or upload image

Select an image.

If the image you want to add to the page is not in the file manager yet, upload it first and then select.

Supported image extensions are PNG, JPG, GIF.

Image alt text

Enter an image alt text.

Alt (alternative) text is used to describe the appearance and function of an image on a page.

Visually impaired users using screen readers can read an alt text to better understand what is shown on the image.

Image scaling

Use this option to change the size of an image. The following image scaling options are available:

  • Based on width - the image is automatically scaled based on the column width.

  • Based on height - the image is automatically scaled based on the height set for the Image content element on the Advanced tab.

  • Do not scale - the image is shown in its original size in the column. If the size of an image is smaller or bigger than the size of the column, it might not look good. That is why it is recommended to use images of the appropriate size.

NOTE

When you select one of the scaling options, make sure that the image fits the column and looks good on the page. You can preview the page to check it.
