Asset Manager Media Library for MODX Revolution
This package adds asset management functionality to MODX Revolution so you can easily upload and edit images and other assets and attach them to any MODX page. Because it stores all asset data in a custom database table, you can easily search for assets by complex criteria or manipulate the search queries for custom reporting.
The end result of using the Asset Manager can be similar to adding multiple image Template Variables to a template (e.g. using MIGX), but the user interface and backend data model is cleaner.
- Supports complex search criteria to find assets
- Galleries of Images
- Drag and drop images to upload them using Dropzone
- Output filters for easy image resizing (like pThumb, but better), including scale-to-width, scale-to-height, thumbnails and cropping.
- Relies on standard Packagist packages to conduct image manipulation
There are a few limitations and bugs that you should know about:
- Image cropping of the original image is not supported.
- Resizing of the original image is not supported. You can, however, use the included output filters to generate images of desired sizes.
- Uploading multiple images at once is can cause some errors (this is because we have not yet tested the supporting javascript against parallel processes)
- Searches across the entire asset library are not yet possible in the GUI
