Notes

Must be used in a section ($addSection) inside a container ($addContainer).
Do not confuse this with $thumbnail[] which defines the thumbnail of a classic embed.
The URL must point to a publicly accessible image (PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP).
For a gallery of multiple images, use $addMediaGallery[].
