Plate 09 · Media library

One photo.
Used everywhere. Counted once.

Your images are a library, not an attachment on a form. Upload a photo once and reach for it from any product, any category or your logo — and no matter how many things use it, it takes up its own size and no more.

FIG 09 — one asset, many references

What changes

The same photo, uploaded eleven times.

Per-field uploads are why sellers run out of space with forty products. The same shot gets re-uploaded for every listing, every banner and every post, and every copy is charged for.

Without it

  • Each product form takes its own copy of the file
  • Storage disappears without you knowing why
  • Deleting a photo silently breaks a page somewhere
  • The good shots are on a phone, not in the shop

With Traxease

  • One asset, referenced by as many things as you like
  • A storage meter that says what is using what
  • Deleting names every place that uses it, first
  • A library you can browse, search and reuse from

Follow a reference

One file. Five things holding on to it.

Trace any of them back to the photo, and watch the storage meter refuse to move. Then try to delete it — the platform will let you, but not before it names every place it is used.

1 file

Five things point at this photo. Trace one.

You are allowed to. You are not allowed to do it without being told what it will affect.

A live diagram of how references actually work: consumers store the file’s address, never a copy of it.

How it works

Why storage behaves the way you would expect.

Hover a step to follow the thread from a file to everything using it.

01

The quota is checked before the upload lands

Space is verified before the file reaches storage, so you are told you are out of room instead of discovering it after a two-minute upload. If you are at your limit your store keeps selling — only new uploads are refused.

02

The file is one row, the uses are references

Every stored file is a single asset. Products, categories, your logo and your page content point at its address rather than holding their own copy, which is why the tenth use costs nothing.

03

Deleting is allowed, but never silent

Before an asset is removed, every use of it is located — across products, categories, your logo and your page content — and named in the confirmation. You can still delete it; you just cannot do it by accident.

04

Identity documents are counted, not shown

Verification documents are stored privately. They count toward your storage because they are genuinely stored, and they are excluded from every listing, so a KYC file can never appear in a picker beside your product photos.

Your photos are the shop.

Bring them once. Everything after that is picking from a library instead of hunting through a camera roll.
