## Description

Connect your WordPress site with Kontainer DAM and work with your digital assets
directly inside the CMS.
 The Kontainer File Picker plugin gives editors and marketing
teams seamless access to images, videos, and documents—ensuring that all content
is always up-to-date, approved, and ready to use. No downloads. No duplicates. No
outdated files.

#### Work directly from your DAM

With Kontainer integrated into WordPress, your entire asset library is available
where you create content.

 * Browse folders and structure directly from Kontainer
 * Search using metadata, tags, and filters
 * Preview and insert assets in just a few clicks
 * Work without leaving the WordPress editor

All assets remain centrally managed in Kontainer—your single source of truth.

#### Always use the right content

Avoid outdated files, inconsistent naming, and brand errors.
 With Kontainer DAM:

 * You always access the latest approved versions
 * Permissions and rights follow your DAM setup
 * Brand guidelines are enforced across your website

This ensures consistency, compliance, and professional content—every time.

#### Gain full visibility and control

Kontainer doesn’t just deliver files—it gives you insight.

 * See where assets are used across WordPress and Kontainer
 * Maintain an overview of content usage
 * Quickly update or replace files across your site

This makes it easier to manage content at scale and avoid errors.

 * No need for manual editing before upload

Your website stays fast, optimized, and consistent.
