Photostock Browser Integration

Authors of articles had to find images on photostock websites. They had to search for images, download them, and upload them to the CMS.

I wrote a custom module that allows authors to search for images on photostock websites directly from the CMS. The module uses the photostock API to search for images and display them in a modal window. Authors can select images and insert them into the article by single click. In the background, the module downloads, crops, and uploads the images to S3.

Authors are now able to find and use images on the same page where they write the article. This automated process has also great benefits for the image licence management.
