Improved Asset Manager

[Aidz (Adrian Brink)]

Hey Webflow team

I would be cool to have an improved asset manager allowing bulk processing of images and improved filtering (eg: dependencies)

Just to name a few -

• Image Compression (I use tinypng.com before uploading all my content)
• Improved Filtering (used on which page, dependencies (which classes
  use this asset))
• Dynamic Resizing (upload the highest resolution image, allow webflow
  to resize (and compress) content dynamically every time we publish)
• Flagging / Commenting on an asset (lets say I upload a temporary image and flag it as ‘staging’ or comment ‘add sparkles on the left’ and then update it at later stage)

Some sort of image batch processor

Would be useful and pretty cool to have some kind of image batch processor, e.g I want to change a picture on several spots on a site to the same picture. As for now, we have to change each image manually, but it would be useful to have some kind of menu or dropdown or anything where you could select which image you would like to replace. Just a thought that stroke me last minute… Cheers!

Delete unused assets in Asset Manager

Hi there @webflow; I have one website in particular with lots of images which I’m not using anymore and it’s impossible to delete one by one. If there was a way for mass selecting and deleting, that would be awesome, or equally good would be something like a purge option which would automatically delete all unused assets like what we can do with styles to clean up the code… Is this something you are working on? Thanks a lot…

Folder in the Assets manager

It would be verry apreciated to have the ability to create folders in the assets manager. I have about 150 photo album with from 20 to 100 photo each …and counting. Thanks!

Ability to upload/store files, code, PDF's, images, etc

I would like to add PDF and images to my website. I want to view and download them. Is it possible to remove and change contents of it. I need to update my web contents, PDF and images regularly. poll

I know you all work very hard Keep it up!

Definitely +1 LIKE.

So manyh people are asking about this. Especially deleting multiple images and uploading files (especially PDF).

I hope WF gives us the ability to delete multiple images. I need to delete 27+ images from my asset manager and it’s a PITA, I must admit.

Hi, the asset manager really needs an update! A lot of people have been asking this, because it plays an important role in building websites and until now it leaves many functions to be desired, it’s really still in alpha. Almost all webflow updates (except rich text block and alt-click on the blue colored changes) since half way 2015 have been cms related, probably since this is more profitable, but you have ‘forgotten’ to take the asset manager to the next level only to bring it on par with what we designers are used to like in Indesign: easy to import multiple images, easy to control edited images, easy to find that particular image, easy to delete unused images. Please help us out here! Thanks! @webflow, @cyberdave, @PixelGeek

Cheers, Tom

Ps: additionally for the color palette, also often requested, this is what I found at our friends from pinegrow

'‘Instead of writing color:#08620f in dozens of CSS rules you can simply define a variable @mainColor with that value and then write color:@mainColor in CSS rules.’ …

@Bissenmann I visited the URL you provided and submitted feedback. Hopefully we will see some upgrades to the asset manager soon.
