  14                      essentially, as a replacement for FTP transfer of media files.
  15                      The Media Manager only works under the /images/stories
  16                      directory. If you need to upload media files in other location
  17                      you have to do it through FTP.Note also that batch uploading
  18                      is not possible with the Media Manager. </p>
