CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi, trying out the CMSMS.  I'm a webdevver.  My client has a very limited knowledge of all things web.

The site is simiple.  Homepage and about 50 pages of text, organized into about six categories.  Future content will be added about about 3 pages a month.

The client wants the usual...you know "I want to be able to edit my site myself", we all know how this is going to turn out but anyhow.

The only challenge I see here is with PDFs.  Many of the pages will need downloadable PDFs.  I don't see any way to easily upload PDFs.  I see how images are uploaded, that's pretty cool, but what about PDFs?  Didn't see anything in demo or docs.

What is the easiest way to have links to a PDF on each page?

Your help is kindly appreciated.

Actually, what you want to do is quite easy.  Hopefully, your client will find it easy as well.

Under content is the File Manager.  Use the file manager to upload the PDF files to the /uploads directory.  In the wysiwyg editor, you or your client can create a link to the pdf file in the uploads directory.

fckeditor will allow you to upload directly from its interface; just select the text that will be linked & click on the create link icon (globe & chain link). from there you can click on the 'upload' tab to upload a new file to the server, or click 'browse server' to choose an existing file in the ./uploads/ directory.

Thanks folks.
