Organize media without moving the files.
A closer look at the virtual collections in ITC Media Workspace and what they mean for a WordPress site.
One image. More than one context.
An image can be useful in a campaign, a product page and a newsletter. A single physical folder would force a choice about where it belongs. ITC Media Workspace uses virtual collections to group attachments without moving their files.
- Keep the attachment.WordPress attachment records remain the source of truth.
- Group by context.Put an item in more than one collection and arrange nested collections.
- Find it again.Use media search and collection views to locate the asset you need.
What that means in practice.
Organizing an item into a collection does not change its file path. The same attachment can appear in different collections without needing a duplicate file for each one.
Collections help with organization, but they do not prove that an image is unused. The product’s usage view covers common WordPress content patterns and remains partial. Check the relevant pages and other references before replacing or deleting an asset.
