What are they?

Media presets determine how types of media gallery are displayed. You can find tables of all your media presets in My Site > Presets > Media.

Media presets are attached to pages through layout presets. Within the layout preset, a media preset for a each desired gallery can be referenced under "Uses Presets". 

There are five types of media preset following different types of media gallery.

Audio/video gallery presets

KhooSeller offer a gallery preset for audio and/or moving visual media here. This is created in mind of content that you don't want to be widely available on other sites, such as news videos.

However, KhooSeller recommend the use of an embedded iframe for audio and/or moving visual content, as this improves Search Engine Optimisation. This can stream from another platform such as YouTube or Vimeo. Click here for more information on embedded iframes and their responsivity.
