Hello,

Since our webpage has been set up, about two years ago, I have not tried to change anything.

I need to delete our 32 page PDF CV and 28 page Word doc bibliography. I see where there is an option to delete these existing files, but I do not see how to upload them.

I was going to play around with it on our start up webpage, but forget the web address for the startup webpage.

I will go to linda.com and also to the how to section of Yalesites, but would like to also post my question here.

I am also going to need to change a couple of photo images already on our site and perhaps add another image as well, as our PI has two new text books coming out.

Thanks very much in advance!!!

June

Hi, June:

When you speak about a ‘start up webpage’ do you mean the dev (development) site? If so, the URL for all dev sites is the same as the actual site, with the prefix ‘dev.’. So the dev site for your site is:  http://dev.pollardlab.yale.edu/.

Your other questions are covered in the YaleSites training classes:  YaleSites Basics and Editing your YaleSite.  Did you have a chance to take either of these classes? I highly recommend them. Both of these classes cover deleting and uploading files (your PDF CV and Word doc Biblio) and how to add/delete/edit pictures (for your new text books).

Here are the links to the YaleSites How to Guide for this information as well.

Getting Started - if you need a total refresher, this is a good place to start.

Add Links - how to add the links to the PDF and Word doc.

FYI, it is best to delete a file before you upload another one that will take its place. Problems can occur if you simply upload a file over an existing file.

Let me know if this helps, or if you need more information.

Best regards,

Carris
