Remove an Image from a Page
To remove a image, first determine if you want to remove the image from the site entirely, or only from a certain page.
If you'd like to remove the image from a WYSIWYG editor:
- Navigate to the page housing the Image.
- Select Edit.
- Scroll down to the WYSIWYG editor and highlight the Image placeholder.
- Hit Delete on your keyboard.
- Publish the page.
Remove the Image from the Entire Site
- Navigate to the Image in the Media Library by clicking Content in the Admin toolbar.
- Select the Media Tab.
- Find the Image you would like to delete in the list.
- Select the drop-down in the Edit button in the Operations column.
- Select Move to Trash.
- Note: Check the Usage tab to be sure that you're aware of all of the pages that will be impacted by deleting this Image. If you do not want to delete the image, select Cancel.
- Move to Trash if you're sure that you want to move the item to the trash bin.
- Once the item is in the trash bin, public users will no longer see the Image on the site.
