Troubleshooting Tips

• Add File button not visible

  Ensure you’re inside a folder view under Media. If you’re at the root Media page, click into a specific folder first.

• Document not listed in link search

  Confirm you uploaded the file to the correct folder and refreshed the editor before opening the link dialog.

• Files List or PDF Viewer templates missing

  Your site design may not include these templates. Contact your Project Coordinator to enable the Files List or PDF Viewer templates.
