How to add Additional main media images for Categories

This article is a step-by-step guide on how to add Additional main media images for Categories.

Additional main media images let you attach extra image types to a category – such as a vertical image, logo, cover photo, or eye catcher – alongside its standard main image. This guide walks you through adding them.

Key benefits:

  1. Visual appeal: strengthen a category's presentation with dedicated images for different placements, including "vertical_image," "logo," "cover_photo," and "eye_catcher."
  2. User engagement: eye-catching visuals help keep visitors engaged with your content for longer.
  3. Branding: reinforce your brand identity by placing logos and cover photos consistently within your category pages.

Adding additional main media images to a category:

Step 1: Go to Categories > Additional Media > Edit Category.

Categories listing: New Category button

Step 2: On the Media tab, select add additional images.

Category creation form, Media tab: Main image upload, crop, and existing/Imago/Getty image toggles

Step 3: Choose the image sub type you want to include for the category: Vertical Image, Logo, Cover Photo, or Eye Catcher.

Step 4: Upload or select the image for that sub type. Make sure the image meets the recommended specifications for optimal display.

Step 5: Edit or crop the image if needed to get the result you want.

Step 6: Select Add once you're done configuring the image for that sub type.

Step 7: Save the category to apply the additional main media images.

 

Summary: repeat these steps for each image sub type you want to configure. Once saved, the additional images are available to your front end alongside the category's standard main image.
