Adding your own media
Upload images and files to use across your pages.
Getting your own images and PDFs into Qbit takes a few seconds, and there are two ways in.
From the media library
- Go to Media in the left navigation and click New media item.
- Under Upload a file, choose the file from your device (images or PDFs, up to 6 MB).
- The Name fills in automatically from the filename — edit it to something you'll recognize later, and add an optional Description.
- Check the live preview, then click Save.
The file lands in your library, ready to use anywhere.
While you're building
You don't have to leave the editor to add a file. Wherever you pick media — an Image element, a menu item photo, a background — the picker has an Add media button that uploads straight into your library and selects the file in one step.
Naming that pays off later
A library of files named IMG_4302.jpg gets painful fast. Two habits keep it useful:
- Name files for what they are: "Storefront hero photo", "June happy hour flyer".
- Use the description for context your future self will want: where it's used, when it expires.
Search in the media library matches names and descriptions, so what you write here is what you'll find things by.
Good to know
- The Starter plan includes 5 media files; Premium and Team are unlimited.
- Files are stored once and referenced everywhere — reusing an image on five pages doesn't count five times.
- Prefer not to upload at all? Pull designs from Canva or grab free stock photos.
