Display resources on your site

Resources files can be displayed on Composer pages through three main elements: the Resource element (galleries, grids, lists, slideshows, or single files), the Image element (single images only), and the Video element (single videos only). The content editor in Composer and Posts also connects directly to Resources when inserting images.
