The quickest way to add a file is to use the Shortcuts menu at the top of your screen

  • Click on the drop-down menu in the top right of the screen and choose Add new file.

Or you can do it via the Files tab in the Knowledgebase.

  • Click on the Files menu
  • Choose the Files tab
  • Click on Add New.

Once you are on the file screen you must:

  • Browse to find the file
  • Nominate the category you want the file to be stored in
  • If you want it to be displayed under other headings as well, click on each category in Mirror in Categories that you want it displayed in. You can select more than one mirror category. Hold the <Ctrl> key down while you select each mirror category.

The following items are optional:

  • To help users identify what is in the file, include a Title and a Description.
  • To order the file in the list, use Order. By default, the file will be placed at the end.
  • To force users to log on to download a file, mark it as Private
  • Use the Status field to make the file available to download.

The maximum size of a file you can upload depends on PHP settings, default is 2MB.
See here for Files settings (Allowed extension, Max file size, etc).
