Managing and Reusing Site Resources

Resources you upload or add to your site, including images and videos, are automatically saved in your resource library for future use.

• Email campaigns
• Image blocks and galleries
• Product images
• Site logos (v7.1)
• Background images

Video Usage:

• Video blocks

Resource Management Tips:

• Resources can be restored within the 30-day period
• Emptying trash permanently removes content
• Deleted resources automatically remove from site pages

Important Notes:

• Video storage limits apply to your account
• Some images don't sync with the resource library
• Duplicate uploads create multiple versions
• File names serve as alt text for accessibility
• Getty Images licenses are site-specific

For downloaded Unsplash images, you can freely reuse them across different sites. Getty Images require additional licensing for use outside of Squarespace.
