6.1 Drag & drop assets
(video placeholder)Text
The assets can be used on the pages in the same way as the Episerver editor is used to. The simplest method dragging the asset from the asset list and dropping it either into the general content area or in a specific content block.
The assets can also be added to the page from block editiing mode. The drag & drop procedure is the same, with the exception of having to drag the asset into a specific area rather than a page.
Sometimes the block is defined by the developer to only accept certain type of content, e.g. only images in banner format. Dragging the wrong type of content will result in an error. In order to find the right content the editor can filter by crop type.
6.2 Dynamic content

6.3 Image/video qualities (maybe)
(video and text?)An Episerver developer can configure a content block to automatically accept content based on metadata-related criteria. The content of the block will be added or removed dynamically when the metadata is changed.
This is an example of a block with dynamic content:
In this specific example all the editor needs to do is to select the folders from which the assets should be picked, and then specify the selection criteria. In this case all the assets from one selected folder with "Approved" status will be inserted in JPG medium media format. If anyone changes the status of the assets in this folder when working with the Media Manager, the changes will automatically be reflected on the Episerver page.
