uploading PDFs

[Kieran.Hanrahan]

Hi

Newbie doh! question but...

Just want to upload a large PDF into the CMS system and then make it accessible from a given page.
Where would I put the PDF relative to the content options?

Thanks

I suggest folder uploads/files - create it if it not exist.

I;m sorry

How would I go about creating a new folder?
When I go into File Manager, I have three options - File, Flash and Photos.
How would I add a fourth option here - is this the correct location?

Thanks

You can do what you want - take folder /File .

Hello cyberman

Still not working

The file is 2.6 MB, its a hotel brochure.  Is there a max size limit?

Thanks

How do you want to upload it? With FTP or FileManager?

If second you have to check parameters for allowed upload size in config.php

$config['max_upload_size']

AND

server defaults. Must be greater than the size of your brochure.
