The media library
The Images button of the editors (and the Image block of the visual editor) opens the team’s media library.- Upload an image: JPG, PNG, GIF or WebP, 5 MB at most.
- Click an image to insert it: in the visual editor it fills the block; in the HTML and Markdown editors an
<img>tag is added at the end of the content. - The bin deletes an image. Careful: an e-mail already sent that shows it will show a broken image.
Light images
As soon as an image is uploaded, Lekalao prepares copies 600 and 1,200 pixels wide (smaller images are kept as they are); the editor inserts the copy meant for e-mail. An 8 MB photo taken on a phone therefore does not slow your readers down.An installation can serve images from a CDN with nothing else to change:

configuration.Saved pieces
In the block editor, Saved pieces keeps a set of blocks for reuse: a footer with the address and the social links, a header with the logo, an “Our opening hours” insert.1
Build the piece
Put the blocks together in an e-mail.

Save it
Save what is in the editor, and give it a name of its own (“Our
footer”).
3
Insert it elsewhere
In any block e-mail, open Saved pieces and click Insert: the
blocks are added at the end, ready to be moved.
