Individual documents can be added at the page edit screen. In the top line you will see a small arrow pointing down, click on this.

You will be able to VIEW DOWNLOADS and choose a specific ID (first column) and INSERT (last column) into your page.  The code will then look like this ie: , with the ID listed that was chosen.


How to add a group of documents:
To add files log into the DASHBOARD -> DOWNLOADS -> ADD NEW. Provide the document with a TITLE, VERSION is not necessary, DESCRIPTION if you would like. SELECT A FILE -> UPLOAD FILE -> choose or create a CATEGORY -> scroll to the bottom -> UPLOAD & SAVE
