Hello! I am attempting to create templates for Quotes, Orders, and Invoices in Page Designer Block. I am having trouble uploading our logo.
I watched the tutorial video and it says to link to records using { } so I created a line in the base with the logo attached and linked to it, but it’s not producing anything.
Is it possible to upload the logo outside of linking to a base? (that would be ideal)
Thank you in advance for any advice :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey there!
You can add an image into your page designer by typing the URL here:
I’d always recommend using Airtable to do this though, as it will make the solution less dependent on other services
Hope this helps!

Thanks so much for your response — I’ve tried multiple URL options including linking from airtable — every scenario lands me with an image icon inside the image box. It also won’t let me post here with an image to show what I am talking about, so I’m not sure how to illustrate the issue I am encountering. I’m contacting Airtable directly about both issues but would love any further advice you can provide :slightly_smiling_face: Given that I cannot upload a photo here, perhaps there is a deeper issue.

Hi @Emma_at_Dims - it is possible that there is something wrong with your image URL - have you tested it directly in a browser to see if it renders as expected?
For a truly static image that doesn’t change with each record, e.g. a logo, then dragging a static image placeholder from the sidebar to the canvas and then entering the image URL in the box should work:
Note that some of the URL is obscured here by the width of the box.
If you want a per record image, there’s two ways to do this depending upon how your base/image field is set up.
You can have an attachment field with an image in it or a URL field that has the URL of the image (somewhere out on the public web):
With the attachment field you can just drag it onto the canvas from the LH sidebar:
With the URL field, add a static image to the canvas as above, then have the static image reference the URL field (in curly braces):
