How do I upload files?

Scenario:
"Where is the option to upload files? I know it's there, but I can't see it."

Solution:
Upload through the Nucleus interface, or your host's file manager or an FTP client.

Original forum thread (thanks, admun!):

Method:
Users can upload files when they are writing a new post or editing an existing post. There is a icon for upload image on the edit new/edit post screen. Clicking on this icon will give you a new popup window.

On the top there is a "Upload to" buttom. When you click it, the window will go to another screen and you can click "browse" to select the file from your computer to upload. Nucleus will only allow one upload at a time. Press "Upload" after you select the file.

You will be returned to the file list and the file you just uploaded should be there. Click on the name and a new box should popup, fill in the image description and click "Ok". A <%image(blah)%> or <%popup(blah)%> should be inserted into the post and this will become the image when you save and go to your blog.

There are radio selectors which you can select to choose whether you want a popupimage or an inline image.

To upload files, it's usually faster to go through your host's file manager or use an FTP client.
