Drupal 9 Media Core Simplifies Content Management for Images, Videos, and Documents
Drupal 9’s Media Core provides built-in tools for managing images, videos, audio files, and documents, eliminating the need for additional modules. The system includes pre-configured media types such as images, remote videos, PDFs, and local media files, allowing users to search, edit, and organize content efficiently. Media management functions, introduced in earlier Drupal versions, have been refined to integrate seamlessly with the text editor, enabling direct insertion of media files. Users can activate and configure media modules via the admin panel, customize media types, and manage content through a structured library interface with filtering, editing, and publishing options.
The platform also allows users to add a media insertion button to the text editor toolbar for quick access. While Drupal Media simplifies content handling, additional modules can further extend its capabilities.
