Replacing a file by uploading a new file
The procedure in this topic assumes Skribenta is installed and configured for normal operation, and:
-
You have logged into Skribenta.
-
You are assigned to one of the following user roles: content provider, technical writer or administrator.
-
You have selected the workspace you want to work in.
-
A content file or a configuration file is created in the workspace.
-
An image file is created (by uploading or dragging-and-dropping it) in the workspace.
You need to import external files and folders to Skribenta. This can for example be image files or files created in other systems that have been converted to Flex DTD XML. If an uploaded folder contains files with relative links to files within the folder, the links are converted from relative to logical in Skribenta.
It is possible to replace an existing file in Skribenta by uploading a file outside Skribenta on your local computer.
This instruction tells you how to upload files and folders to Skribenta.
This is the file content before replacing the file by uploading a new file:
