# Media

[![image.png](https://bookstack.iconography.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/scaled-1680-/Lb3image.png)](https://bookstack.iconography.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/Lb3image.png)

This tab is used to setup and edit media for a product. If not manually set, the default is to apply none; a 'missing image' image will be shown instead.

<p class="callout info">This section allows products to be edited individually; editing in bulk is done with other tools, such as the [CSV Upload](https://bookstack.iconography.co.uk/books/price-management/page/csv-upload "CSV Upload")</p>

## Setup

### Product Images

These should be uploaded via the drag and drop tool - simply drop files to upload them.

Images which have a green header will be live and visible to all customers; those with an orange header will be Variant only images, and will not be visible to customers. To view these, each image must be linked to a specific Variant on the [Inventory](https://bookstack.iconography.co.uk/books/categories/page/inventory "Inventory") tab. That image will be shown to the customer if they select that Variant via the option buttons or drop down selector.

Images may be edited individually.
