Our Content Management System (CMS) allows you to drag files from your desktop straight into your website's File Manager. If you prefer, you can also select the Upload File button to browse and upload them from your computer. Once added to the File Manager documents and images can then be used within your website content.
Depending on your permissions, you will either see a Website Files Folder, which is shared by all administrators on the site, or a Home Files folder which is individual to you, if you do not have administrator permissions.
