Stuff -- Uploading Documents to your blog, media, video, music, audio, pictures, images......
The method for uploading is different since we updated the Wordpress blogging software. It used to be the "Browse" button below your text body box, but now it's the Add media section, just above it.
If you are having problems with the Flash Uploader, you may have installed Adobe Flash 10. This may be fixed by now, but you can try to go back to Flash 9. (You should have your School Tech do this for you). The link is here: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
...or, you can just use the Browser Uploader provided in that popup window.
With uploading DOCUMENTS, I must continue to drive this point; some of your students will NOT have Microsoft Office at home, and will not know how to open your Word & PowerPoint docs. I would suggest converting them to PDF, or using Google Docs to embed them on your blog.

Thanks Justin!
ReplyDeleteJustin, I am getting frustrated with my new blog. I can't seem to get comment boxes to appear on my pages and categories even though I checked the box to allow comments. Can you help me out.
