Manage uploads

You can organize your files uploaded to Edjet LMS using folders.

Best practice

The way you organize the files is completely up top you and your team. It depends on many things, for example how many content creators work on course content, what content type do you use and many more.

Common recommendations:

• Pay attention to file names - make them meaningful and web-safe before you use them to avoid renames.
• Every course has it's own dedicated folder with all it's files.
• Do not share files between multiple courses or users - use multiple copies of the file.
• When renaming the file or folder, make sure you are able to update all references (links) to it.
• When editing image using in-build editor, always save the new version as a new file.
