Using alternatives to Sitecore Media Library

Abstract

When you use Sitecore as your CMS, it uses the Sitecore Media Library by default. If you choose to override this, or are using Commerce Server 11.3 without using Sitecore as your CMS, you must specify a base URL to your media assets.

  1. Log in to the Sitecore Content Editor with user credentials that have the appropriate permissions to edit the core database.

  2. Navigate to /sitecore/client/Applications/MerchandisingManager/Settings/System/CommerceImages-Parameters.

  3. Set the baseURL field to the absolute root URL of your media assets. For example, http://www.myserver.com/media/images/.

  4. Save your changes.
