Content creation

Hello! If I have the same picture in different contents but it is uploaded each time in different folders(folders for different course presentations), how can I prevent searching engines from seeing copies/doubles of the same picture? How can I hide this copies from search engines or use the link to the same image instead of inserting the same picture for many times?

Unfortunately, this isn't possible yet. Hopefully, in the future, there will be an easier way to reuse media between content.

Thank you! I have an idea to use text and HTML tags. If I ask programmers to change code or template how do you think in what place of existing structure is it better to add this custom filed? in what direction should I ask programmers to work? or what is the better way to do it now by adding some code?

The best way to do it is by customizing the theme or adding a custom module that will add a JavaScript that overrides the editor widget you wish to replace, e.g. the image uploader. What the new widget needs to do is to add the URL for the image, how it obtains that URL is up to you.
