Get ready for a first-of-its-kind media tool in Editor 2.0 that transforms how you replace media. We’ve added a new panel beside the canvas, so you can view your site and media side by side, and then drag & drop media to instantly replace or add images. It’s the fastest way to update images on any site building platform.


This new media panel gives you easy access to your media—what you've uploaded, Duda’s free stock collection, and more—all in one place, without leaving the page you’re working on.

Save time and clicks with instant image previews on the canvas

This update lets you preview different images before replacing one on the canvas. Just drag a new image over an existing one on the canvas to preview it. Drop it on the image to replace, or drop it back in the media panel to discard. It’s a big time-saver compared to the current image picker, with fewer clicks, faster decisions, and an easier way to find the perfect image match for the page or section.

Instant replacements, no matter the image source

Just drag and drop to replace the image, no matter where the original came from, whether it’s a widget, background, or the Content Library.

Add new images on the site page, too

This new feature’s magic doesn’t stop with previewing or replacing images on the canvas - it also lets you add images to new spots on your site, even where none existed before.

A tool that keeps you in your (work)flow

This keeps everything in one view without having the image picker window pop up and block the image you’re trying to replace on the canvas.


Easy to start, keep going, or pick up where you left off
The media panel will remember your filters, search terms, and even where you scrolled to, so you don't have to start over every time you use it. This helps you build sites faster and more efficiently.

Import media right then and there

Easily import images from social media, from another site (using its URL), all without having to go off on a tangent with all sorts of windows appearing on the canvas and interrupting your workflow.

Easy for you, your team, and your clients

This new revolutionary feature is so easy to use, you can do it yourself or have your clients jump in when you’re ready, and have them add or replace their site images on the canvas. It’s the ultimate productivity tool for using media in every site you build with Duda.


Works even for clients with limited editing permissions
Let your clients update their site's images directly, even if they don't have design permissions. The easy drag-and-drop feature for adding and replacing images means they can do it themselves without messing up your design, no matter the source of the image being replaced.


Please note the new drag & drop media panel on the canvas is still being gradually rolled out to all accounts, and is currently available in Editor 2.0 only.
