Contribute Tutorial

Create New Directory

Websites can be described as collections of web pages which are organized into directories. In this regard they are similar to file cabenets. Group like web pages into folders to organize your web site just as you would in a file cabinet.

Windows hint: Directories and folders are the same thing. A directory is a folder - these terms are interchangable. In Contribute you create a folder just as you would in MS Windows.

To create a new directory/folder:

  1. Open Contribute.
  2. Click "Choose" (located just under the menu bar in the upper right hand corner of the application window).
  3. In the new "Choose File on Website" dialog box that opens, on the right side there will be a group of normal windows icons for: move up a directory level; make a new directory; and delete a directory.
  4. Navigate to the level on which you want to make the new folder.
  5. Click on the icon for make a new folder. The "New Folder" dialog opens - name your new folder.
