I have been handed a project from another person and I am wondering if there is a way to export images you want from the asset panel? I would like to edit some of them but can’t seem to find a way to access them.
Is it even possible to export from the asset panel?
Ditto. There is no export of Images. There is no export of Blog Categories (vs. Blog Posts). This means if you run a blog site, you must manually download all images, and you must manually re-code/recreate your tags on all categories, because there is no mapping tool. You can export Categories, e.g., but that doesn’t mean that template creators cared to have mapping into the template to change to their template…
Hm, but if you want to export the images you do so by going to your assets manager.
An advanced “solution” what I see is this other solution stacket what’s have been posted on this forum. You can export the images all at once if this is your concern . Here is one blog post about it. CMS Collection images EXPORT - #2 by PixelGeek
I have this same issue for a different use case. On the WebP Conversion Tool page it says explicitly to download from the Asset Panel: “Important: When you convert existing assets to WebP, the original asset files will be replaced by the WebP asset. If you want to keep the original image file…download them from the Asset panel before converting.” I want to convert to WebP but can’t take the time to manually download 100 assets individually. Why is there not a “select all” and “download” option?
This would be super useful for mass downloading old images from sites I made a while back where I didn’t properly compress images. Oh well. Manual download and compress it is, until they add this feature.
For anyone who is desperate on this, it is possible to download all of the images using a series of manual hacks, though I’ve only needed to do it a few times for clients.
My current best process for this involves using Chrome Dev Tools, and ChatGPT+ with Code Interpreter to make the data extraction trivial.
