Question: How do I use my locker?
Answer:
There are two ways to use your locker:
- To store uploaded files. This is necessary if you want to have downloadable files on your website. See How do I upload a document? in the Documents and files section.
- For a Locker element on one of your web pages. We don't recommend this use of lockers (see Should I put a locker on my web page?) but the choice is yours. The instructions are below.
Using a locker element on your web page
| Step | Instructions | Example or Picture | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Organize your locker to match the groups of files you plan to upload and make available for downloading. See Can I reoganize my locker? |
 |
|
| 2 | Add a Locker element to your web page. See How do I add a page element? in the Page elements section. |
 |
|
| 3 | Click the pencil icon above the Locker element. |  |
|
| 4 | In the locker Edit window, fill in the title for the locker display, and select whether it should display the entire locker or a particular locker folder. |  |
|
| 5 | Click the Save & Exit button. |  |
If you change your mind, click the Cancel button instead. |
| 6 | Once you publish your updated web page, people will see your locker or locker folder on your web page. Any files you put in your locker will appear there automatically. |  |
