View Files & Folders

You can view all files stored in the Media folder of this CMS server.

In the left column, you will see a folder tree. Click a folder; then files or subfolders attached to the selected folder will be displayed in the right column where thumbnails for image and video files can also be shown. It is an easy way for you to navigate all files in the Media folder.

In the upper right corner of the window, you will see more functions for you to change view modes or filter file types.

List	Click the button and you can see all files and subfolders in the table. You can sort files alphabetically by the file name or by last modified date and size. Just click File name, Time, or Size to do it.
Icon	Click the button and the folder contents will be shown as icons. You can open a subfolder by double-clicking.
Filter file types	You can use the filter to show a specific type of file. Click the drop-down list and select a file type, such as videos, images, or text. If you want to see all files, just select All.
