Image/File Manager

Upload Images/ Files

Uploading an image from your computer can be a helpful option, especially when you don’t have the path of the particular image available online. To make this path available for you to link or embed with your email campaign, you first need to upload it to the current installation server of Mumara. To do this, reach “Image/File Manager” under “My Campaigns” and choose an image from your computer to upload to your server. The following Figure shows the selection of files from your computer to upload.

The above mentioned figure shows one of the images “Add Subscribers” selected from the computer to upload to your server. Once you have done with the selection, simply click “Upload File” to start uploading the selected image to your server. The following figure shows the file “Add Subscribers” uploaded to your server. All the images will be saved in the uploaded_images folder of your server.

Uploaded and saved images in the uploaded_images folder, can later be used to link or embed with an email campaign. The HTML editor integrated with the “Create an Email Campaign” page helps to link the email campaign with uploaded images, by using the button “Insert/edit Images” under the toolbar.

Moreover, you will have the ability to view the permission status of the uploaded_images folder, the folder responsible to carry the uploaded images. Reach “Tools” towards the bottom of the left navigation menu, and click “Permissions” under tools. The page altogether provides the current permission status of different files and folders, including import_file, temp, and uploaded_images as well. If the folder has the writable permission assigned, it shows OK status. If the file doesn't have the required permission, it shows an “error”. In case of error, you need to modify the permission as per the scope of the control panel you have.
