Use private boards in the Media Manager to create account-level folders to easily access your media files across all your sites.
Boards allow you to edit and manage the files you regularly need, no matter which site you are working on. You can add your own media, free Wix media, or purchased media to your boards. 

Creating a board

Create a board inside your Media Manager. Choose if your board is accessible from all of your site's Media Managers, or just from the site you are working on.
  1. Access your Media Manager.
  2. Click My Boards on the left side.
  3. Click Create New Board.
  4. Enter the Board Name.
  5. Enter the Description for the board.
  6. Click the Available for all my sites toggle:
    • Enabled: Your board can be access from all your sites.
    • Disabled: Your board can only be accessed from the site you are working on.
  7. Click Create.
