Directory File System

Images should be uploaded to appropriate folders.  Please make sure that image uploads go into their proper folders.  For example, uploads to research labs should follow this directory structure, wysiwyg>research>labs>lab_name.  For clinical sections, follow this directory, wysiwyg>sections>section_name.

Example of Image Right Justified

To aligned the image to the right of the text, first place the cursor at the beginning of the paragragh. Then upload the image. Select the image by clicking on it once. Then press the Right Align paragraph alignment icon.  To give the image a little spacing around it so it does not butt up against the text, add HSpace 15 and VSpace 5 to its image property.

  • Upload image
