Moving images without breaking the links?

Can images in DW be moved within the filemanager in a way that img-tags etc don't break?

Also, I would appreciate a link to the DW-docs about the functions of the filemanager, since I can't find any. It would also be nice if the search-functionality of this site/form would be improved. I can just enter one word to get a specific search. More than one word results in huge list with results that has any of the words in it, so practically useless.

Hi,

Image links are administrated through Link Management. From the manual:

The link management functionality ONLY applies when moving/renaming a single file!

Link Management will warn you if you attempt to move or rename a file that is in use/linked to from within you Dynamicweb website. You then have the option to disregard this and move or rename the file anyway (this will result in dead links/missing images on your website!) or update all references so that they link to the new location or name of the file. You also have the option to cancel (leaving the file as it was).

Read more in: http://manual.dynamicweb-cms.com/Default.aspx?ID=1557#6565

We are working on a new manual and hope to improve overview and search.

Kind regards,
Merethe
