# Files

Staff upload PDFs, text files, and zips in admin → **Files**. Each file gets a stable link you can paste on the site, in a text, or in the portal.

## Upload a file

Press **Upload a file**, pick the file, then **Upload**.

Orange numbers:

1. **Upload a file**
2. **Upload**

If nobody has uploaded yet, the page says **No files yet. Upload one to get a link for it.**

## Copy the link

Each file has **Copy link**. Paste that on a page, in a text, or in the portal.

Orange numbers:

1. **Copy link**

You can **Replace** or **Delete** later.

## Who can open the link

When the customer portal is on, you pick:

- **Anyone**
- **Signed-in customers only** (your site may say members or clients)

Signed-in staff can open either kind. Put a signed-in-only link on a portal page, not on a public blog post, or visitors who are not signed in will be blocked.

The public address looks like `/files/{slug}`. The slug is the short name in the link. Ask your agent if you want that link on a page. Do not guess slugs.

## What this is not

Files is not a full media library. Photos on the public homepage still live in the site files. Ask your agent to change those. See [Edit pages and content](./public-site.md).
