In this article, we’ll walk through how to use the Viraly media library!

Viraly’s built-in media library lets you easily upload and manage your images and videos. By, having your media ready to go ahead of time, you won’t need to upload files while building your posts.

Plus, Viraly includes a powerful image and video editor to help you make your media look perfect for every platform.

Let’s explore all the features!

In this article:

  1. Using the media library
  2. Editing your media

Media Library

Step 1.

First, navigate to the Post Scheduler area. Then, click on the Media Library link in the middle column.

Step 2.

Once there, you’ll be able to view all of the previous media that you uploaded. If you want to upload a new photo/video, click on the Upload Media button in the top right.

Step 3.

Now, you’ll probably want to actually use the media in a post! Go back to the main Post Scheduler area and click on the Create Post button.

Step 4.

By default, you’ll be able to upload media directly into the post. But, we’re using the media uploader. So, you should click on the Select from Library button.

Step 5.

From there, you’ll be able to view all of the media that you previously uploaded. You can select one or more media items to add to your post (depending on what is allowed by the platform you’re posting to).

Finished!

That’s it! Now you’ll be able to view the newly attached media in the preview area and the thumbnail below.

Photos and Video editor

With Viraly, you have extensive photo/video editing capabilities!

Photo editor

Let’s start with the photo editor. Once you’re inside the post composer, make sure you upload a photo, or select one from the media library. Below you can see that the photo has already been attached. Click on the paint brush icon to edit the photo.

From here, you can see you have a ton of options. You can do things like:

  • Crop
  • Filter
  • Finetune
  • Annotate
  • Decorate
  • Sticker
  • Frame
  • Redact
  • Resize

Video editor

We also have extensive options with the video editor. In the same way, you can click on the paint brush icon to edit a video.

From here, you’ll have options such as:

  • Trim
