Click once on the file name. A small popup menu appears. The program attempts to deduce what kind of file it is; for example if you upload a .DOC file (Microsoft Word file) it will read that and say “File Type: application/msword” at the top, which is in this case a successful guess at what the file is.

Most menu items are a toggle switch that allows you to select various options before actually adding the image to your post. For example, click “Linked to File” and it will turn to “Linked to Page.” Click “Linked to Page” and it will toggle back to “Linked to File.” Here are the explanations of the various options:

1. Linked to File means that when a visitor clicks on the link that you insert when you hit “Send to Editor,” they will be taken directly to the file in question (and most likely prompted to download it, depending on the user’s browser and system settings).
2. Linked to Page means that when a visitor clicks on the link, they will be taken to a blog page featuring the filename and its title and description–basically adding an extra layer between the blog posting and the actual download of the file.
   (In this way, you can consider “Linked to Page” to be a shortened phrase meaning “Linked to a standalone, themable blog page which itself contains the link to the actual content.” A little too long for a popup menu.)
   Also consider that if you use “Linked to Page” it will not only create a new little blog page for the file download, it will also allow visitors to comment on it separately from the post. So you can solicit comments on a file in this way.

1. Using Title will use, for the text it inserts in the blog entry, the title you typed next to “Title” when uploading the file.
2. Using Filename will use the actual filename. So if you uploaded a file named “thisdocument.pdf” and gave it a Title of “New Product Brochure” when uploading, then it will insert “New Product Brochure” into the blog entry if you pick “Using Title” and will insert “thisdocument.pdf” if you pick “Using Filename.” No matter which you use (and Using Title is strongly recommended for readability) it will still link to the actual filename when clicked on.

1. Send to Editor takes those options you selected and then inserts the hyperlinked text into the editor window wherever the cursor was. Thus, unlike with images, it simply creates a clickable hyperlink to the file.
2. Delete will remove the file from the server entirely.
3. Close Options closes the little popup menu. Unlike most popup menus it will NOT go away by itself, so click this when you’re done inserting the image.

Once you have selected the options you want and clicked “Send to Editor,” the image or file title should appear in the editor window! Be sure to click “Close Options” to close the little popup menu.
