Uploading a file such as a text file, a pdf file or a word document.
I just sample word document. To do this, I had the file on my desktop. You can keep your files where ever you feel comfortable, such as your “My Documents” or “Documents” folder clicked on the symbol to the far left (Insert Media) and then clicked upload. I would not normally do this if the paper is on the internet, I could just insert link to the document in my posting or as a link. However, my “classification on this blog” is as a “Contributor” so I would have to email the document to one of my team leaders who are Editors and who can upload documents and make links.
I had the administrator change me to an Author like everyone else and I was able to upload my Sample.doc so any of you can do.
I can link the document here or an editor/administrator can make a link to it.
You might ask how you can link to it when it is hiding somewhere mysterious. Once you upload the media, you will see it in your media library. If you move your mouse over the title of the document, you will see “Edit } Delete } View. Click on view and you will see a new page with the document name and a smaller name under the title which is a link.
Move up to the address box and copy the url which is the path to your document. Go back to your posting area and click on post. Write your post. Normally, you will see visual or html darker than the other. If html is not dark click on it. On the left side of the editor box above you will see several buttons. “b”, I, link, etc. Write something that explains the document then highlight a word and click on link. The paste the url into the window that opens up and close the window.
You might want to print this out if you are confused.
