Why?

Without integration, file management in WordPress quickly becomes fragmented and difficult to oversee. Editors risk using outdated files, or failing to comply with brand guidelines.
With Kontainer + WordPress, your team has direct access to the DAM – ensuring they always insert the right files. The result is faster editing, fewer errors, and a consistent user experience.
