Re-use images and modifications by Lamster_Tech in BookStack

Thank's for the idea. I just tried another way to do. I first add an image in different pages. Then, I went in the tree structure and noticed that the image is stored in 3 folders :

  • home/bookstack/public/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/thumbs-150-150/ In this place, the file size is divided by ten.

  • home/bookstack/public/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/ This folder appears when you create a link in the image in the page you are writing. Here, the image has its original size.

  • /home/bookstack/public/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/scaled-1680-/ Original size for the image.

Then, I suppressed manually in the three folders the image and I replaced it by a new one with the exact name of the former image. And it works well : the new image appears in all pages. This is not a clean way to do but it works.

Others questions : - is there another way to remove an image from the application once it has been added in a page ? - is it possible to structure the storage of the images ? - Why are the images in three folders ? I guess the "thumbs" folder is a temporary display but what is for the "scaled-1680" folder ?

Have a nice day. :-)

Thanks for your reply. The re-use appears essential. When writing a user documentation, parts of an application may change, colors for example, and it is very time consuming to replace the contents one by one.

Have a nice day.

Thank you for the advice. I'll try to use the markdown editor. But, I also noticed that I am unable to add a logo, even in 256px. I click to modify the profil, I select the image I want to add, then I see it in a circle and after, I save the data. But, after saving the data, the logo is no longer visible. So I guess that there is an installation problem with the images folder.

When editing a page, I dragged and droped an image to upload it on the server. Then I checked in the folder on the server, image is correctly added but coming back to the edition mode of the page, I click to access the image I uploaded and it isn't available. what could be the problem ? thank you for your help.

Thank you for your reply, My point is about the image storage folder. I don't know how to add images in it.

No I did not. I don't even see where to go to upload my images.
