Hi folks! How can I use images in Gainsight? Where should I upload and store them for use in custom sections?
Solved
Upload images for custom section
Best answer by Alistair FIeld
I have a hidden community category. (only visible to administrators / Community Managers)
I keep a Community Management topic open that I can add my new images to when I need them and use the image url form there.
The drawback is lack of versioning. i.e. I cannot update and image and all references be updated. You need to upload new version and then change all references to that image.

Yes, I am using a cloud solution now. But I still had to ask, maybe gainsight has its own solution
Thanks!
Here’s a quick workaround I use when I need an image on Custom pages:
1. Ask a question or start creating an article.
2. Upload the image and copy the image url.
3. Discard the draft article.
4. I then use the <img> tag to show my image on the Custom Page in an html widget.

The needs of the many, outweigh the needs of the few. 🖖
