# Delete Image | Website Manual

**Delete Image**

Removing an image from a page and deleting it from the Media Library are different actions.

Coming soon

We are recording a new video for this one.

## Before you finish

Tick them off as you go.

**Not seeing your change?**

Your browser may be showing a copy it saved earlier. Open the page in a private window, or press Ctrl + F5 to reload it fresh (Cmd + Shift + R on a Mac).

If your site has a caching plugin, clear its cache too. There is usually a button for it in the bar along the top of the dashboard. Still the old version after a few minutes? Ask whoever looks after your site to clear the server cache.

### Good to know

Removing an image from a page and deleting it from the Media Library are different actions. Removing it from a page leaves the file in the library for use elsewhere.

Deleting it from the library removes the file from the site, and any other page still using it will show a gap.
