File uploads
Attach images, videos, PDFs, and other files to a prompt — PageFork reads them or places them on your site.
The chat composer lets you attach files to any message. Uploaded files appear as URL badges inside your message text. PageFork decides what to do with each file based on your prompt:
- Reference — read the file to understand style, layout, data, or content, but don’t place it on the site.
- Asset — place the file on your site (image, video, download link, etc.).
- Both — inspect a file and also use it as an on-page asset.
Tell PageFork your intent in the message. “Match the layout of this screenshot” is reference. “Use this photo as the hero background” is an asset.
How to attach
- Click the + button below the composer.
- Choose Add Photos & Files → Upload for a new file, or Select from Media Library to reuse a file you’ve already uploaded. See Media library.
- Drag and drop a file onto the composer.
- Paste a file from your clipboard.
The file uploads to PageFork storage, is saved to your media library, and a URL badge is inserted into your message. You can move or delete badges in the text before sending.
Image uploads also show as thumbnail previews above the composer. Deleting a URL badge from the message removes its thumbnail.
Tip: open the expand button (top-right of the composer) for a larger editor with rich text formatting when your message is long.
Images
Common uses:
- Reference — “Match the colour palette of this brand screenshot.”
- Asset — “Add our logo to the header and footer.” (with the logo attached)
- Both — “Use this product photo in the hero and match its warm tones across the page.”
Formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, SVG, BMP, TIFF. Up to 5 MB per image.
What doesn’t work well as reference
- Full-page competitor screenshots — the AI over-mimics. Prefer section-level references.
- Very low-resolution images — details get lost.
- Images with heavy watermarks.
Videos
Attach a video when you want it embedded on the site:
- “Embed this demo video on the home page, autoplay muted.”
Formats: MP4, WebM, OGG, MOV, AVI. Up to 50 MB.
Documents and data files
PageFork can read documents to understand specs, copy, or data — and can also link them from your site as downloads.
- Reference — “Follow the layout described in this PDF spec.” (PDF attached)
- Reference — “Add the products from this CSV to the pricing table.”
- Asset — “Link this PDF from the pricing section as ‘Download brochure’.”
Supported formats include PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, Markdown, TXT, JSON, and more. Most non-image files: up to 25 MB. Executables and scripts are blocked.
PDFs are rendered page-by-page so PageFork can inspect layout and content accurately.
Paste a URL
You can also paste a link directly into your message. PageFork treats hosted file URLs the same way as uploaded files — reading them when your prompt depends on their contents, or placing images when you ask it to.
Good combined prompts
You can attach multiple files in one message:
“Add our logo (attached) to the header. Match the overall layout of this screenshot (attached). Link the brochure PDF (attached) from the pricing section.”
Be explicit about what each file is for when you attach more than one.
