    Uploading Files To Your Web Folder

    This feature is not available on Free Trial and is only available once you become a paid subscriber



    You can upload files (such as doc, pdf, jpg, gif, bmp, ppt, xls, mp3, rm, avi, mpg) to your web folder that you can link to on any page on your website. In the control panel under the My Content tab, click the page you wish to add a link to a file, and go to the Text/Image feature.

    In the text box:
    • Write a word or phrase in the text box that lets visitors to your website know they should click the text to download the file. For example, "Click here to download file".
    • Highlight the text as this will become the link visitors will click.
    • Click on the Link icon in the menu.
