Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
We are currently working on a portal site with a blog. We would like to be able to incorporate videos and images in the blog in a free form manner much like you might do with the upload component of FCK editor. But we would also like to be able to reference these elements in galleries or as fixed size teaser images for the homepage. We want the flexibility to use content stored in YouTube, Flickr, locally in Drupal, etc.
Will the media module allow us to accomplish this use case?
Thanks for any guidance.

aaron CreditAttribution: aaron commentedwe ultimately want to integrate media with wysiwyg and inline, so, ultimately, yes.

We can already use CCK to upload images, videos, and display 3rd part content. So it'd be great if the user could then position this content in the body of the node. And by the sound of things Media will make this happen.
