Contributions: Media file upload option

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Media files in contributions can only be embedded if they are already hosted on a server, e.g. at an external hoster like abload.de. There is no option to directly upload media files into the contribution.

Disadvantages:

  • The UX is not seamless and not intuitive.
  • External sources can be unreliable.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • The editor toolbar ("Medien einbinden (Videos / Bilder / Links)") should offer an option to upload media files directly.
  • The file size should be limited.
  • The file types should be restricted (e.g. no .exe files)
  • The system should purge unused media files.
