Upload files and video to my site

Your price list, your brochure, the menu you just reprinted, the little film of your studio — they belong on your site, and getting them there shouldn't involve a web developer. On a bernard-hosted site, uploading is drag-and-drop, and placing is one ask.

Three ways in

  1. Your Library page. Drag in photos, documents and videos — as many as you like, straight from your phone or camera. Photos join your library already marked as yours and approved for use; documents and videos are kept with the site and give you a link Bernard can place anywhere.
  2. The workshop's Image gallery tab. Same drop zone, right where you're already looking at your site's pictures — new photos appear in the grid the moment they land.
  3. The chat itself. Attach a file to your message — "here's the new price list, put it on the services page" — and Bernard stores it and places it in one conversation. Works from a connected AI app too: give it a link to the file and it fetches it for you.

What happens to each kind of file

Photos become cards in your library — titled, searchable, and ready to place on any page (Add a photo to any page covers the placing).

Documents — a PDF price list, a booking form, a term sheet — are stored with your site and linked from wherever you want: "add a Download our price list link under the pricing table." Visitors click, the file opens.

Video plays right on the page, exactly as you filmed it, with the browser's own player. That's deliberate: page video is for a welcome clip or a studio tour, not a course. If the video is a lesson, upload it on your course page instead — that route also writes captions, a searchable transcript and chapters (What can I do with my videos? is the map).

Storage that doesn't surprise you

Your site has 500 MB of space for pages and images, and video gets its own separate 5 GB allowance — so one film of your open studio never squeezes out your photographs.

Questions people ask

Where do I upload a file?
Three places, all yours: your Library page (drag in as many as you like), the Image gallery tab in the workshop, or straight into the chat — attach the file and tell Bernard where it belongs.
Does an uploaded file go live by itself?
Uploading only stores the file with your site. Putting it on a page is a normal draft change — you see a preview and nothing changes on your live site until you approve it.
Can I put a video on an ordinary page, not a course?
Yes — an uploaded video plays right on the page with the browser's own player, exactly as you filmed it. Captions, chapters and transcripts are only made for course lesson videos, so upload those on your course page instead.
How big can files be?
Photos up to 10 MB, documents up to 50 MB, and video up to 1 GB per file with 5 GB of video space per site — comfortable room for a phone-filmed clip.
