Manage the WordPress Media Library
One of the nicest enhancements in the latest version of WordPress is the new Media Library. This new feature is a significant improvement over the previous method for managing uploads.
This is the tool you’ll use to managing your images, videos, and audio files.
Managing WordPress Files
The WordPress blogging system is made up of hundreds of system files. Most bloggers will never have a need to edit these files directly. Those who do will likely edit the system files on a test server and upload the fully tested and modified files using an FTP program.
Regardless, WordPress provides a method for editing system directly from the Administrative interface. As I note in the video, this feature should be used with caution.
Managing WordPress Uploads
Update: With version 2.5, the Manage Uploads administrative feature has been replaced by the new Media Library.
Chances are you’ll be uploading photos, videos, and various binary files (like PDF documents) to your blog. Over time, active bloggers can accumulate a large number of file uploads. Managing uploads exclusively through the Post and Page interfaces can be challenging when your uploads span across many months (and years) and hundreds of posts.
Fortunately, WordPress allows you to manage your uploads directly. This video shows you how.
