006 Uploading Files and Documents

The directions for uploading an image or document (such as a PDF or a Word Document) are the same. Select the page you would like to add images or a document link to. Be sure you are in “Edit” mode (click on the “Edit” tab at the top of the page).

 

 

Click on the “Images and Files” tab on the right side of your window. Then click “Upload files.”

 

 

A new window will appear. Click “Browse” to find the image or file you would like to upload[1].

 

 

Adding Images: Creating a link from "Insert links" screen

Once your image is part of the workspace, you will need to add it to your page. Use the scroll bar on the “Images and files” window to find your image name. Add the image by clicking on its name. The image will appear on your wiki page wherever your cursor was. The image will be added as “in line text.” For further directions in adjusting image properties, including text wrapping an image, see the PBworks Help Page. You can change image specifications at any time, so you do not need to text wrap your image before saving your page changes. (You can also add an image by using the "Add Link" button on your tool bar while in "Edit" mode but the steps listed here are less complicated.)

 

 

Adding Files

Files that are added to wiki pages are a little different from images. While you can view the actual image you add, you will only see a link to a file. You can either add the name of the file to your page or create linked text on your page. Find the file you would like to link to your page by using the scroll bar to the right of the “Images and files” window.

 

Option 1: Add the file name by placing the cursor where you would like the file link to appear on your page. Click on the name of the file under the “Images and files” menu. The file name will appear as an active link on your page.

 

Option 2: Add your file to the text on the page by selecting the text you would like to use a link. Next, click on the name of the file under the “Images and files” menu. The file link now appears on your page.

 

 

 

Links become active once you save your page.

Footnotes

  1. Be sure that images or files have UNIQUE names, such as "kkampsdoc." Too often people make the mistake of uploading items with generic names, like "picture." In that case, the next time someone uploads an item with the name "picture," your image or file will be replaced. The last upload with the same name shows up on everyone's pages.
