How do I upload a file to the MARCS website or blog?

MARCS students and staff can upload their own publications. However, sometimes you might want to upload an image, video, or some other file (e.g., a Praat script, the images on this blog). These files need to be placed on the MARCS server, and then you simply insert a link that points to the desired file on the MARCS server.

Step 1: Getting the files onto the MARCS server.
Two folders have been created on the M: drive. Place files destined for the MARCS website in M:\ForWeb and place files destined for the MARCS blog in M:\ForBlog. Then, send an email to marcswebmaster@lists.uws.edu.au announcing that you have left files in that directory that need uploading and we will upload the files and provide you with links.

Step 2: Inserting the hyperlink(s).
Once you have the links, you may insert them into your page by clicking on the appropriate Edit tab and editing the content of that page.

Small files may be attached to your email to marcswebmaster@lists.uws.edu.au (convenient if you're working from home), however, using the M: drive folders is preferred.
