How and where do I upload
files to my site?
You can add files to your site wherever you see an edit form that includes
a button to "Add Handout". The Welcome, News and Handouts sections
accept various file formats.
Important:
Please do NOT use special characters (, & " - % #) in the file name (as saved on your computer). The file may not be able to load on your site.
It is best to first upload all files to the Files section of the Admin Upload folder. This is
the storage area for files. Once uploaded, you will need to add the files to the Admin Handouts section.
Click here for more information on using the Handouts section.
Once files are added to Handouts:
- Click the "Add Handout" button on the appropriate edit form (within Welcome or News).
- A new form will load which contains a "Select Category" drop down.
- Choose the appropriate category and proceed to choose the file (handout) from the drop down on the right.
- Click the "Select Handout" button to officially select the file.
- The page will refresh and you will be on the main edit form.
- Proceed to click the "Update" button at the bottom of the form you're working on.
Note: If you don't see a "Browse" button on the Upload form, this means
that your browser is not compatible. Try updating to the latest version. Choose from
the options below.

Note: If you can't find your files when searching on your hard
drive, try choosing "All Files" from the drop down next to Files of type: in your file window.
