How to add a photo to the image gallery

Open the website builder, find or add an Image gallery block on the page, upload from your computer/library/Amenitiz database, and save.

Overview

This article explains how to add new photos to your website by inserting them into an Image gallery block on a specific page.


Before you start

  • You need the Can edit the website permission to open the website builder. If the Customize button doesn't appear, ask your Account Owner to grant access.

  • An Image gallery block must exist on the page (or you can add one in step 2). If you want to add a single image somewhere else, use a different block — see how to add a block to your website.

  • After adding the photo, don't forget to add SEO to your photos.


Step-by-step instructions

  1. Go to WebsiteWebsite in the sidebar, then click Customize in the top-right corner. You'll land on the home page of your site.

    Open the website builder
  2. If you want to edit a page that isn't the home page, open the Pages tab and select the page. Otherwise, stay on the home page.

  3. In the left-hand menu, scroll down and click Add an element to add an Image gallery block — or select an existing Image gallery block on the page.

  6. Click Save to publish the changes. Once saved, don't forget to add SEO to your new photos.


FAQs

Where do the uploaded photos come from?

You can pull from three sources: your computer (a new upload), your existing library (any photo you've previously uploaded), or Amenitiz's stock database. All three appear in the same library once added.


I added a photo but it isn't showing on the live site — what's wrong?

Make sure you clicked Save in the builder after dropping the photo into the gallery. Without saving, the change stays in the builder only and doesn't reach the live site.


What size should my photos be?

For best performance and quality, follow the size guidance in how to choose the right image size for your website photos.


I want to add a single image, not a gallery — how?

Use a different block type. See how to add a block to your website for the full list of available blocks.
