Kibo CMS allows you to effortlessly upload files into the Kibo CMS File Manager that you can use across your application. In this tutorial, we will learn how to upload a file or multiple files into the Kibo CMS File Manager. As an example, we will upload the image shown below. Please save it on your computer to upload later.
The maximum file size per upload is 25 MB. Files larger than this limit will not be accepted.
Kibo CMS File Manager does not support cache invalidation. If you need to update an asset, upload it as a new file with a different name rather than overwriting the existing one. Overwriting an existing asset will not clear it from CDN caches, so the old version may continue to be served.
