Folders Page Help

The Folders page. 

The Folders page may contain folders into which visitors can upload files or folders for the site owner or into which the site owner may upload files for visitors to download.

The owner can save files and folders in a Public Folder, which is accessible to all visitors, or in private folders, which can be accessed only by users for whom prior permission has been granted. If a visitor attempts to open a folder that the owner has limited access, the visitor will be prompted for a user name and password before being allowed to access the contents of the folder.

To download files or folders:

  1. Select the folder from which you wish to download.
  2. Click the name of the folder. 
This will open another window that will show the names of the files available in the folder you have selected.
  1. Click the name of the file you wish to download. You will be prompted for a location in which to save the file.
  2. Once you have finished downloading files, close the folder window.
If you want to stop the file transfer, click Cancel. The file being sent when Cancel is clicked will not be transferred, but any file transfers that were completed before the cancellation will remain on your computer.

To upload files to a folder:

  1. Select the folder into which you'd like to upload a file.
  2. Click the name of the folder.
