I’m trying to upload a folder of images and video to the resources section of my site. Drag and drop or copy and paste isn’t working. I have created a short video to show what is happening. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Looks like the Editor is trying to grab hold of what’s in the folder.

Try not dragging the folder across the editor, go around the top of the window and into the resources area.

You can also right-click on the resources heading and select “Add Files”, and simply pick the folder via the open dialog.

Hope that helps.

@dan,

Thanks, that worked. I was banging my head on the desk trying to figure out why it wouldn’t take the folder.
