====== File uploads ======

{{ :usage:upload-and-insert-image.jpg?300|Upload and insert image in text}}Our [[WYSIWYG editor]] has it's own file manager from where you can upload files from your website to your web site. To be able to upload files you will have to fulfill two tasks:

  - Create directory **UserFiles/** in the root of your web site (usually named htdocs/ or public_html/) ((directory name is case sensitive and it has to be exactly **UserFiles**))
  - [[install:configuration#chmod|CHMOD]] directory **UserFiles/** to **777** (//or 755//)

When you do this file uploads should work. On your right side you can see image which shows you how to upload and insert image from your computer into text on your website in seven easy steps.

| On most web servers maximum file size of uploaded file is 2 MB and we can't do anything about that. This will usually be enough for your needs, but if you want to increase file size, you will need to contact your web host provider and ask them to increase this for you, or you could try [[troubles:increase_file_size|this solution]]. |
