Media data types let Wix users select and configure images, videos, and vector graphics in your component. When a Wix user edits a media field, the editor opens the Wix media manager, which is the standard dialog for browsing, uploading, and choosing media.
The category you set on each media field controls which picker the media manager opens. For example, setting the category to IMAGE_BACKGROUND opens the background images picker, while SHAPE_SOCIAL opens the social icons picker. If you omit the category, a default picker opens for that media type.
Tip: You can also control which folder the media manager opens to by setting mediaManagerInitialPath in your display group options.
