Hello,

I'd like to draw some attention to Pages' article creation. Namely the moment you have to upload a NEW image each time for a new article. IMHO that can be done better by taking a page out of Wordpress' book by allowing to access and search and select images already uploaded in the past. The Media section has this handled but as I see its only accessable when making Page templates. Why would you leave Media out of Article record images' selection? For example when writing news about playstation 4 (or any other recurring topic) I prefer to show the same image of the console with each news article. Now if I used Pages today, I'd have to upload it each time I write an article, waste time and disk space.

please give us more freedom when writing articles. 4.4.4 maybe? @Matt @bfarber  🙂

I also asked about it here first

 

Can you not add file upload custom field to the articles template area?

bfarber liked it so I take it as a very good sign 😄

hello IPS team, I wonder is it likely that this feature comes with IPS 4.4.5?

You won't likely see a major feature like this introduced in a minor point release (where we generally address bugs).

good, at least I know, hope you wont forget this in 4.5

I hope this will be introduced through the entire suite 🙂

The same "problem" exists in blog articles not just pages. For every new article I have to upload a new image (even if it is the same I've already uploaded)
