Hints and Tips

  • Try to keep organised with your files - always create folders for different things such  as policies, images etc and make sure you upload files to the correct folder.  You'll find it easier to locate things if you remember to do this.
  • If you would like to upload a file into a folder, you need to click into the folder and press upload from there.
  • When using the filter button to search for files, it will remain enabled until you reset it.  You will see a red icon on the filter button showing that it is still enabled.  If you click the filter button the click reset this will then remove the filter.
  • The filter is a good way to search for files, particularly if you have a lot of files and folders.
