Upload files for app use not user use

Need help
1

Very basic and you’d think it would be intuitive but apparently not. I can’t find anyplace to upload image files for use by the app, specifically on the home page - hero area. AI is zero help, I’ve lost track of the number of wrong answers it’s given me. Can’t find any helpful info in the community area either. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

There are a few ways to upload files, e.g. manually through the editor or with a File Uploader element.

In your case though, if you’re looking to set up images for your Hero section, I’d do something like this:

  • Create an ‘App Settings’ data type. Add to it fields for the images you need, e.g. ‘Hero Image’ (of type Image).
  • In your Data > App data tab, create a new entry for that data type.
  • In that new entry, you can then click the field for ‘Hero Image’ to upload your image.

You can then fetch and use that image on your home page (Do a search for: App Settings: first item's Hero Image).
