Add files to the database

Ok, this one is a little more tricky. The Genderweek-Websites provides the visitors with a database, that collects important documents and also videos (Youtube) from the pages.
You can see this “Media Center” here.

Before we now add a document or a video-link, we first have to upload a file to the database. Otherwise the Media Center wouldn’t know even about the existance of that particular document, right? This it how it works:

STEP 1 – Uploading a file

Within your post please click on the the “Filebase Icon” on top right of the Format Bar:

 edit_page_-_giz_gender_week_2015_-_wordpress

A new mask appears. We’re going through it step by step.

First: Klick on “Try the browser uploader”

Now: Select a file from your PC and fill out some of the fields of the form, as shown below:

my_posts___giz_gender_week_2015-2_0

my_posts___giz_gender_week_2015-6_0

Description field is not mandatory. Please ignore the “Tags” field

 

my_posts___giz_gender_week_2015-10_0

Fill out the title (optional) and select a category

 

Please do not select any secondary category.

 

my_posts___giz_gender_week_2015-7_0

Save the document into the database with “Add File”

STEP 2 – Embedding files into your post

To embedd a document into your post, click on the tab “Single File”, then select the template “Download Button” and choose a file from the folder:

my_posts___giz_gender_week_2015-12

This procedure creates a code in your page:

my_posts___giz_gender_week_2015-3_0

And this is how it looks:
