To upload a file from your hard drive into the course, do the following:
Upload |
Browse... |
Import Content |
Special Notes on importing Web Pages: If you have already created a web page outside LON-CAPA you can upload the images when you first upload the web page, in one of two ways. Either:
(a) upload the web page via: Course Editor - > Upload - > Upload File, and check the Upload embedded images/multimedia files if HTML file checkbox. You will them be prompted to upload the image files (as dependencies)
or
(b) Create a zip (or tar) file archive containing the web page and the images (e.g., in a sub-folder). Use:
Course Editor - > Upload - > Upload File
to upload the zip file. LON-CAPA will prompt you to decide what should be done with the content.
In general, there is no need for image/multimedia files to be loaded into the
course content hierarchy if the images are linked from a Web Page. Instead, upload the
web page(s) that contain the images, and then upload the images as
dependencies. One limitation of this method currently, is that if you
use the same linked content in many places, those file cannot be shared and must
be duplicated for each page. If you
upload a Web Page and forget to check to box to include embedded images/multimedia
files, you can still upload the individually. See the section
for more information about working with Web Page file dependencies.
NOTE: Your new file will be visible the next time you log in, or by
re-initializing course |
