Creating a File Storage Module and Adding Files To It
This guide will explain how to add a file storage module to your site, then upload files to it.
Step 1 - Access Your Website Manager
First, navigate to the "Structure & Style" > "Architecture" section of your website manager. If you do not know how to access your website manager, refer to this guide.
Step 2 - Add a New Module
In whatever section you want to put your file storage module in (make sure its a "navigator" section, not "hidden" or "passthrough"), click "Add Module".
Step 3 - Select the File Storage Module and Configure It
On the following screen, click on "File Storage - Allows users to download files".
Then click "Configure" at the bottom of the page. Fill in the Module Title, Navigation Bar Title, and URL Identifier. Also choose whichever additional module configuration settings you'd like and then press the "Create Module" button.
Step 4 - Activate the File Storage Module
You will now be taken back to your Architecture section. Before the module can appear on your site, you must first activate it. Click the "Enable" button under the module name.
Step 5 - View the File Storage Module on Your Website
Return to your website view and you should see the new file storage module listed in your navigation bar. Click on it to view its contents.
Step 6 - Add Files to the File Storage Module
Finally, we have to add files to the file storage module in order for users to view and download them. Click the "upload" button on the gray editing bar above the module title.
You will now be taken to the File Upload Dialog. Here, click "Browse" button and select the file from your computer you wish to upload to your Squarespace site. Once you have selected the file, click "Upload".
