On the right the ‘Step Indicator’ is at the ‘Add Media’ step and the instructions inform the contributor to upload media into the folders available and submit to the editor when ready.
The contributor can either click the ‘Add Media’ buttons on each folder or drag files from their local file system directly on to the ‘Add Media’ marquee to start the upload process.
After adding files to upload a modal will appear to review and confirm the upload. The contributor can edit their ‘Credit’ information in bulk by editing it in any media tile, by default it is the full name of the contributor that is held in the Condé Nast database. Media can be deleted on an individual basis or the upload can be cancelled entirely at this point.
Once the contributor completes the upload by clicking the blue ‘Upload’ button in the modal it closes to reveal the folder populated with media.
At this point the contributor can add additional media by clicking the ‘Add Media’ buttons on each folder or dragging files from their local file system directly on to the ‘Add Media’ marquees.
