Note:



  • File Cabinet files are group-specific and cannot be viewed in "View All Mode." If you are unable to locate your file cabinet, make sure you have first selected a Groupsite using the "Switch Groupsites" selector drop-down menu located in the top right corner of every Groupsite.

  • If permission to upload files is not enabled in your Groupsite, you will not see the Upload button and you may want to contact your Groupsite manager(s) with a request to post your file. To reach a link to your group's manager(s), log-in to your Groupsite then click on the HELP tab on your main navigation bar. An option to contact your managers will be presented in the HELP tab sub-menu.

  • Groupsite Managers: The ability to allow all Groupsite members to upload Files to the File Cabinet is included in Premium Permission Controls. If you are a Groupsite Manager and your Groupsite is subscribed to the Premium Permission Controls, enable permission for all Groupsite members to upload files from the MANAGER > Group Settings > Permission Controls page. Scroll down to the "Files & Media Permissions" area and set the permission to "allow all members" to Upload files.
