User blog:Electos/Tutorial 1: How to Upload a File

Welcome to the first episode of Tutorials! In this episode, we are going to learn how to upload a file.

Step 1: Starting
At the top right of the screen, there are three vertical dots. Scroll over them and click "Add New Image" ("Add New Video" if your file is a video, but for this blog, we are using an image for the example.). Now, you should be at the image on the left. Once you are there, click "Choose File" and select a file from your computer. Make sure it is a permitted file type.

Step 2: Destination Filename
As you can see on the right, the file does not have a proper name (it may have a proper name if you named it before uploading). To add one, click on the circled textbox and type whatever name you would like for the file. For this file, I chose "ExampleFile" as seen on the left.

Step 3: Summary
Next up is the summary. This will leave a header titled "Summary" with whatever is in the circled textbox below on the file page. For this file, I wrote, "This is an example file used solely for the purpose of explaining how to upload a file for this blog.", which nicely explains the file's purpose.

Step 4: Licensing
Finally, we add the copyright status of the file. This will leave a header titled "Licensing" with a template selected from the circled drop-down menu below. The "Licensing" header will be below the "Summary" header. For this, I picked "I created this image myself." because I did (It is just a background screenshot.).

Step 5: Finishing
Now, we are nearly done. All we have to do now is click "Upload file". After that, we get the file page (on the left), which is our intended result. We are done and you are free to change the file page, upload the file to pages, analyze the other sections, etc.
