Edit Images
**CORE features a built-in Image Editor for making changes to images you upload. This tool allows you to crop, as well as modify image details, such as captions and photo credits.

The Image Editor will open with your selected image on the left and image details on the right. You can crop and edit image details for any image in your article without leaving the Image Editor. Simply navigate to other images by using the left and right arrows.
Crop an image
CORE automatically crops and resizes your images to create multiple versions for display on different device sizes. You can manually adjust the crop to remove an unwanted portion of an image or to set a new focal point.
To crop an image:
- Open the image you want to crop in the Image Editor.

Crop Image located underneath of the image.

Revert changes to an image
CORE maintains an unedited version of your original image, so you can revert changes using the Image Editor at any time.
Simply click Restore Original and your image will change back to the original version that you first uploaded to your article. This action cannot be undone.
Edit image details
On the right side of the Image Editor, you'll notice a number of options to edit image information.
If nothing is entered in the ‘Title’ field, then no tooltip will appear on the image.
The caption also serves as alt text that tells search engines what the image is about. This makes your image more likely to show up in image searches. Alt text also plays an important role in increasing accessibility for sight impaired users, screen readers, and browsers that block images.
