WordPress media is a feature in the dashboard that allows you to manage all of your media files including images, videos, audio files, and documents. You can also add captions and titles to your images, as well as organize them into folders. It’s a great way to keep your media organized and make sure you have easy access to all of the files you need.

When you first open the WordPress media section, you’ll see a list of all of the media files you have uploaded. You can sort these files by date, title, size, or type. You can also search for a particular file, or show only files of a certain type.

If you need to upload a new media file, simply click the “Add New” button at the top of the page. This will open up a new window where you can select the file you want to upload. You can also drag and drop files directly into the upload window. After you’ve selected the file you want to upload, you can add a title, caption, and description. You can also add tags and categories to help organize your media files.

Once your file is uploaded, you’ll be able to see a thumbnail of the file, along with its title, caption, and description. You can also edit these details if needed. If you’d like to delete a file, simply hover over it and you’ll see the “Delete” option.

You can also create folders in the WordPress media section. This is a great way to organize your files and make sure you can easily find the ones you need. To create a folder, simply click the “Create New Folder” button at the top of the page. You can then give the folder a name, and you can drag and drop files into it.

The WordPress media section is a great way to keep track of all of your media files. It’s easy to use and you can quickly find the files you need. It’s also a great way to organize your files and make sure you don’t lose any important files.
